The Trump Presidency Timeline

In a stunning move that totally doesn't scream 'killing democracy,' President Trump has graciously extended his pardon pen to 1,500 January 6 rioters. Yes, the same folks who thought storming the Capitol was their patriotic duty now get a free pass, courtesy of our dear leader. Because nothing says 'law and order' like forgiving Enrique Tarrio for his 22-year vacay in federal prison and Stewart Rhodes for his 18-year stay. In other words, 'patriots' and 'hostages' (as Trump calls them) can now return to their regularly scheduled programming of, well, whatever they do when they're not plotting 'civil war.' But sure, let's keep pretending this isn't a giant middle finger to justice.
