Biden did not pardon Jack Smith or other figures who have been involved in legal wranglings against Trump
[FoxNews] Former President Joe Biden doled out a flurry of pardons during his final days in office, but he did not issue a pardon for Jack Smith or other figures connected to cases involving President Donald Trump, who has frequently castigated those he feels have unjustly targeted him.

In a post on Truth Social this month, Trump asserted that "Corrupt Democrat judges and prosecutors" had targeted him "at levels of injustice never seen before."

Biden also did not pardon figures Trump has publicly assailed, including Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, New York Judge Juan Merchan and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

Biden's last minute middle finger to police: pardon of murderer who executed two FBI agents in 1975
[LawEnforcementToday] In another last-minute middle finger to those in law enforcement, the former occupant of the White House, Joe Biden, commuted the life sentence of a man convicted in the double-slaying of two FBI special agents in 1975.

Just before being evicted from the Oval Office by President Donald Trump, Biden commuted the sentence of far-left activist Leonard Peltier, who killed special agents Ronald Williams and Jack Coler in a shootout in South Dakota, Fox News Digital reports.

It should be noted that Democrat presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama both denied previous clemency requests for Peltier. However, he had the support of far-left loons Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT), along with former Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland.

When word of Biden’s actions became public, the FBI Agents Association slammed him. The decision also came after outgoing FBI Director Christopher Wray urged Biden not to free Peltier only days before.

“The FBI Agents Association (FBIAA) is outraged by [former] President Biden’s decision to commute the sentence of Leonard Peltier, a convicted cop killer responsible for the brutal murders of FBI Special Agents Jack Coler and Ronald Williams,” FBIAA President Natalie Bara told Fox News Digital. “This last-second, disgraceful act by then-President Biden, which does not change Peltier’s guilt but does release him from prison, is cowardly and lacks accountability. It is a cruel betrayal to the families and colleagues of these fallen Agents and is a slap in the face of law enforcement.”

Last week, Biden issued clemency to two men jailed for life in connection with the shooting death of a Virginia police officer, as recently reported by Law Enforcement Today.

Peltier is now 80 years old and is allegedly in poor health. He is serving two life sentences for the murders plus another seven years for an armed escape attempt. He has repeatedly tried and failed to appeal his case. Supporters feared he would die in prison and looked to the feeble, cognitively impaired Biden to set him free. Mission accomplished.

“For nearly 50 years, no fewer than 22 federal judges, multiple parole boards, and six presidential administrations have evaluated the evidence and considered Peltier’s arguments,” Wray wrote. “Each has reached the same conclusion: Peltier’s claims are meritless, and his convictions and sentence must stand.”

In a record number of last-minute pardons and commutations, Biden has let 37 of 40 federal death row inmates off the hook, changing their sentences to life without parole. Meanwhile, his equally feckless now-former Attorney General Merrick Garland took the death penalty off the table for a brutal MS-13 leader responsible for seven murders. Among his victims were two teenage girls who were massacred with machetes and baseball bats.

Haaland, who apparently did something during the Biden administration, praised his decision.

“I am beyond words about the commutation of Leonard Peltier,” she wrote on X. “His release from prison signifies a measure of justice that has long evaded so many Native Americans for so many decades.”

Justice. Like what Williams and Coler got after they were brutally murdered on June 26, 1975. The two agents were looking for a group of armed robbery suspects in the Oglala Sioux Indian Reservation in Pine Ridge, South Dakota. While he wasn’t one of the suspects, Peltier was inside a vehicle that caught the attention of the agents.

Unfortunately, they were not cognizant of the fact that Peltier was the subject of an arrest warrant for the attempted murder of an off-duty Wisconsin police officer.

Court documents showed that Williams warned Coler over the radio that someone in the vehicle was about to open fire on them. A gunfight ensued, and both agents were wounded. The FBI said that Peltier then executed Willams and Coler at point-blank range with his AR-15, pumping bullets into their heads.
Remember: At any time, Congress could have rid us of this mentally ill President. But chose to endanger our nation by refusing to use the 25th amendment.

I can only guess, they knew the puppet masters were more comfortable in their rubber stamp management of Biden, than Harris.

#3  Whether Slow Joe was "duly" elected in 2020 needs get a hard look. How we got this ding dong is very suspect. There's been a lot of good analysis on the results of that election. For some reason, many wanted to see this analysis buried. A good airing-out needs to be done. Put some sunlight on this if the evidence has not been destroyed.

Both did detailed audits of the Fulton Co. voter fraud, and so did several others.

GA Gov Kemp and GA SOS Raffensperger both need to be investigated as to why they quickly approved the well PROVEN 2020 Organized GA Voter fraud.

#5  That work needs to be done so processes can be put in place to prevent winning via fraud in future. The anger the fraud caused was as damaging to the nation as what the Progressives actually did.

#7  I have no problem with the pardon of Leonard Peltier. As a kid I distinctly remember there was offsetting bolt or firing pin evidence that a corrupt judge sat on. The who crap show had to do with basically gold theft that the tribal leaders were involved with?

We had one of of our Federal Staff appraisers who's wife was part of the tribe. Dan did a pretty clear explanation of the whole scam.
Ether way, good. Let him out.
