I wonder what these four fellas have in common?
Let me tell you about four very different men who share something quite important in common.
On Monday, a man named Jonathan Braun was sentenced to 27 months in prison. The charges against him included sexually assaulting the live-in nanny for his own children and attacking a nurse with an IV pole. He was also accused of assaulting a 3-year-old child.
In October, a man named Christopher Moynihan was arrested and charged with threatening via text to “eliminate” Hakeem Jeffries, the House minority leader, at a speaking engagement in New York City on Oct. 20.
In March, a federal jury convicted a man named Eliyahu Weinstein of defrauding investors of $41 million. As Bloomberg reported, he had falsely promised “to invest their money in Covid-19 masks, scarce baby formula and first-aid kits bound for Ukraine.”
In January, an Indiana sheriff’s deputy shot and killed a man named Matthew Huttle when he reportedly raised a firearm during a traffic stop. Huttle was being arrested for a felony traffic violation when he resisted arrest. A special prosecutor charged with investigating the case said the deputy’s use of force was “legally justified.”
Answer: All four men were previously pardoned by President Donald J. Trump.
Law ‘n Order!

Something tells me you will lose a "Your Guy Pardoned Worse People" contest.
Pretty worthless discussion. Pardons are what they are, warts and all. Further, I assume you actually support an unrestricted power of the pardon. Please correct me if I'm wrong. You just like to use anything, even things you support, as a political point scorer, when your political opposition uses them.
Presidential Pardon Power is absolute. One’s judgment is fair game to critique.
