BBC News - Trump criticises Democrat he pardoned over not switching political parties
www.bbc.com
Really says it all, Trump pardons people because he thinks they will then owe him and he can get something in return. He's now being fully transparent about it, although no doubt the usual suspect will both sides it and find an excuse for this blatant corruption yet again.
This should be an impeachable offense.
Democrat charged during a Democrat administration is apparently no different to the following Republican crying about lack of loyalty for pardoning them. Again notice how the person being pardoned was convicted of fraud? At some point even the most biased people must notice the cost trend of who Trump is pardoning and why.
Trump slams Henry Cuellar over not switching parties after pardon
Texas Representative Henry Cuellar is running for re-election as a Democrat after Trump pardoned him.

I like that youve considered the fact that it is legal, and that it is regular practice without the need for my intervention...
On a serious note, Everything Trump does is transactional, hes turned the middle east strategy on its head, and im confident his rant against Cuellar is for public show, as Cuellar is aligned with Trump on issues, and it absolutely serves Trump to have a conservative Democrat on side over a converted Republican.
But if this is corruption, wasnt Obama vs Trump term 1 like 10 to 1, and Biden 20 to 1?
I think total pardons were probably similar, but Obama total commutations were like 2000 to Trumps 200, and Bidens 4000.
I think Trump might be on track to match Biden this term however due to the 1500 Jan 6ers!
So is pardoning opposition party members convicted of fraud an impeachable offence? Or is it only impeachable when Trump does it?

US Supreme Court appears poised to expand Trump's power to fire federal official
Trump v Slaughter, heard by the top court on Monday, is a case that could have major implications for the independence of some federal agencies.
www.bbc.co.uk
Looking like the supreme court is preparing to throw out yet more decades of precedent to aid Trump. For all their whinging about activist judges, there has never been a supreme court in the entire history of the USA that has overturned this many years of precedent. They are enabling an expansion of the executive way beyond anything that has come before with no basis other than who is president.
They appear to now be siding with the idea that a president can flat out ignore the law. The law as written by Congress explicitly states the reasons the president can remove someone from the FTC, reasons that were not present in the current removal. The supreme court is appearing to decide the president is now the lawmaker and budget decider, powers explicitly assigned to Congress in the Constitution.
Guess you reap what you sow, if Democrats win the next presidential election, they will have a president with vastly expanded presidential powers who will be able to undo all of Trump's appointments.
Oh and the Trump administration is demanding judge Cannon keep the results of Jack Smith's investigation hidden from Congress and the public, the case she threw out with no legal basis and to which a higher court has ordered her to make public.
And to Dirty Harry's inevitable contrarian argument, just **** off you bellend.
