Listen and learn why Bannon, Kushner and others run FREE and why the justice system is so lenient with the rich (most of the time), yet so many of us are unjustly locked up in prison, or await trial in jail. Then in the evening, curled up on the sofa, we gotta listen to their whiny asses spewing lies and claiming they are victims. Scrood @ScroodFM

Trump pardoned Bannon for stealing donors money from the"We Build the Wall" scheme. Currently, Bannon is appealing two counts of contempt of congress after being found guilty in the January sixth contempt of congress trial in July of twenty twenty two. Nearly two years after the trial, Instead of waiting in jail during his appeal, Bannon is free to do as he pleases. The judge stayed his sentence of four months and a sixty five hundred dollar fine. However, Peter Navarro was just denied a stay from the D.C. appeals court. Navarro will likely serve less than four months in the protected, Happy Hotel. These men refused to produce documents and both gave congress the middle finger. I know people that served more time for unpaid moving violations, or a few joints that not only served more time, but also paid higher fines, and the punishment was immediate. Another question I have. If the law is to punish crime equally, how is this reality to be explained, and how is it that a multi-millionaire has to pay just a sixty five hundred dollar fine and walk free? When a bench warrant is issued against a person that committed a small offense, because he can not pay the fine or get a ride to the court, he is thrown in jail. Even juvenile offenders serve months to years in Juvi for non violent offenses. But, protected rich men can solicit and steal millions from the public with intent? Yet they and others of their ilk have the audacity to claim witch hunts, two tiered justice system, corrupt DOJ, weaponized justice system. Are you effen kidding me? You whiny, entitled, gutter snipes. Must be nice to be a rich man that works for the ELITE! Apparently the president cannot pardon somebody at a state level, right?

Elly 2:37

No,

Ben 2:37

only at a federal level. Right. So anybody that's screwed up in his recent past or in the near future, he's going to pardon their federal case.

Elly 2:48

Case yeah, or commute it or someone who's already in jail or prison rather Yeah,

Ben 2:55

so what happens if they're what I was if it's a state problem if they're convicted in a state level He can't pardon them, right?

Elly 3:01

No,

Ben 3:03

No, I don't believe so either but you know, what what the governor can

Elly 3:08

Yes, the governor can

Ethan 3:11

The pardon power of the President extends only to offenses recognizable under federal law. However, the governors of most of the 50 states have the power to grant pardons or reprieves for offenses under state criminal law. In other states, that power is committed to an appointed agency or board, or to a board and the governor in some hybrid arrangement(in some states the agency is merged with that of the parole board, as in the Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board). Nine states in the United States have Boards of Pardons and Paroles that exclusively grant all state pardons.

Ben 3:49

The governor can so think about this for a second. We start voting right we get let's say Trump some by some crazy Atmospheric warp of time gets into the presidency and we get a bunch of Republican governors, a black hole, a bunch of Republican governors in let's say all 50 states, Now anybody that does anything wrong federally, he can basically pardon and anybody that does anything in the state and gets put in prison. His governors. Can pardon them.

Elly 4:27
