A wild new scoop from Axios reveals that in the final days of the Biden administration there was a “mad dash” by White Hose staff to find thousands of pardons and commutations — all signed with autopen — without giving DOJ lawyers a chance to vet them.
The result?
Biden gave clemency to a murderer who killed a mother and her 2-year-old daughter because the women threatened to expose the man’s drug dealing.
Biden’s White House lawyers basically refused to hear from victims, including those of 10 death row inmates who didn’t even request clemency (!!)
Biden bragged to reporters that he pardoned or commuted the sentences of a record number of criminals, even as officials were kicking and screaming that many receiving clemency didn’t deserve it.
Why do Democrats have a pathological desire to help criminals over their victims? Truly disgusting.
