Federal Pardons are powerless against state charges/crimes. End of story.

She can frame it and hang it on her cell wall in the state pen next to her cellmate's booger collection.

Another concrete sign that Trump is off mentally.

The next step is that rumored raid by an airborne division to free the woman.

IMO this federal pardon is a curious choice for Donald Trump to make. His pardon is an accusation that affirms her guilt and the legal liability associated with it within the state's judicial process. He essentially is admitting that the state made the right decision to bring the charges that led to her conviction and incarceration in state prison.

@#3 ... Another concrete sign that Trump is off mentally. ...

While I may not yet agree with the conclusion, I may be starting to agree with the premise.

Stated differently, this pardon is just another in Pres Trump's long series of pardons of those who seem to express unfettered obsequious adulation of him. So, nothing new there.

On the other hand, maybe that apparent requirement for such unfettered obsequious adulation of him may be an indication of an issue with the President of the United Stated.

At this point, I am conflicted in my view.

Good viewpoint.

Orange Steel In The Hour Of Chaos.

That is a reference to the Public Enemy song, you people remember the 80s rap group. Not really the best music you could listen to, or the best rap.

In the video, Flavor Flav in an Apache helicopter busts chuck Chuck D. out of prison.

It was a simpler time.

@#7 ... Typical Buffoon ...

I would hope you would be more specific in criticism of my comments.

I respect the opinions you post.

Please be more specific.

@#11

So I got a response from you.

Interesting.

To be honest, I'd really like to see you comment more frequently. Not the usual post and run stuff. But that is just me.

Because I am so vain? No.

Because I respect your opinions? Yes.

Looks that way, doesn't it?

She's still damaged goods no matter what happens.

Sometimes "Pardoned" on a job application raises eyebrows and suspicions.

The malodorous------------- pardoned a cop killer along with a drug lord who flooded America with 400 tons of cocaine.

Hard look taken.

How about JFK's, FDR's, and Lincoln's?
You know, if, like you, we either don't know or don't like the topic of thread?
On point: Trump's pardon power does not even extend to Tina Peters.
Give a convicted felon the pardon power and ...
