Ed Martin, the chief pardon attorney in the Department of Justice, lied on Steve Bannon's War Room that President Dummkopf Trumpf's federal pardons could get Rudy Ghouliani and other riff-raff off the hook for state and local crimes related to the 2020 presidential election. Many of those receiving federal pardons were facing state crimes in Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, and Wisconsin for schemes to overturn the 2020 presidential election by using slates of fake electors.
"How does this go, because these are state charges, and you've got some pretty radical AGs, particularly in Arizona and some of these other states?" Bannon asked Martin.
"Couple things. One, there's a broad argument that the that the pardon can apply to state charges," Martin sniveled. "I leave to others for fighting it out, but there is in the history of the country, of course, you go back in time, at the very beginning, the charges a pardon operated against any crime against the United States, at the period early on, you're pardoning local charges too."
Martin admitted that courts were unlikely to drop state and local charges based on a federal pardon.
This is the creature whom the woman in Wash DC allegedly spat on while he was doing an interview on the street outside his office. This repugnant mouthpiece is facing his own legal issues, like disbarment.
