President Trump Pardons Dinesh D’Souza, Considering Others

By 1600 Staff

President Trump will pardon conservative filmmaker and icon Dinesh D’Souza, according to Fox News. Dinesh D’Souza was convicted in 2012 of giving  an illegal campaign contribution to college friend Wendy Long, who was running for U.S. Senate.

The president is also considering pardoning Martha Stewart, and commuting the sentence of former governor Rod Blagojevich of Illinois. The president recently pardoned Scooter Libby, a Bush Administration official convicted of process crimes; he also posthumously pardoned Jack Johnson, a boxing legend convicted of a crime largely because of his race in the Jim Crow era.

Blagojevich was convicted of corruption for attempting to sell the Senate seat of President Barack Obama. Matha Stewart was convicted of obstruction of justice and securities fraud, and was pursued by disgraced former FBI Director James Comey.

Many of our Best and Bravest soldiers who were prosecuted for violating the insane regulations imposed upon them by the obama dept of defense should be pardoned. They most certainly deserve to have their actions which were well intended but not “p.c.” under obama’s rules pardoned immediately.

Rod Blagojevich is scum and what he did is totally unacceptable. I wholeheartedly agree with the other pardons. It’s funny, though, I believe Martha Stewart was a big time Obama supporter. That didn’t work out too well for her as she was targeted by Obama’s DOJ.

I agree! All of them deserve a pardon except Rob Blagojevich. I believe that is just to jab the Democrats in the side and set them off in a frenzy.

With Missouri’s Governor resigning, I wish Trump would pardon Jeffrey Weinhaus who go 30 yrs for something he did not do. The Franklin County PA Bob Parks railroaded Jeff because of politics, He should be pardoned.

Dinesh is a great person and should have never been prosecuted. We have a very poor corrupt judicial system in our Republic. Please check it all out. Thanks
