Dems will no doubt howl about RULE OF LAW while they support sanctuary cities and the 40 million illegal aliens bankrupting America.

Quote:

july 10 2020 The White House announced Friday that President Trump signed an Executive Grant of Clemency commuting the "unjust sentence" of Roger Stone, just days before the longtime political operative was slated to report to prison to serve more than three years for charges stemming from former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.

In a lengthy statement released late Friday, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said the president had made the decision to commute Stone's sentence "in light of the egregious facts and circumstances surrounding his unfair prosecution, arrest, and trial."

“Roger Stone is a victim of the Russia Hoax that the Left and its allies in the media perpetuated for years in an attempt to undermine the Trump Presidency,” McEnany said in a statement Friday night. “There was never any collusion between the Trump Campaign, or the Trump Administration, with Russia. Such collusion was never anything other than a fantasy of partisans unable to accept the result of the 2016 election. The collusion delusion spawned endless and farcical investigations, conducted at great taxpayer expense, looking for evidence that did not exist.

@Dr Sliptinschit,

That will probably hurt his future employment opportunities.

Oralloy.....

That is a great image! I think I will steal it.

Equating Trump's pardon Roger Stone with Richard Nixon is exactly the messaging I want to see. I had to check to see if the artist is liberal or conservative (he appears to be conservative).

That suggests that this is a accidently anti-Trump cartoon. That makes it more funny.

Not now that it has been expunged.

@Dr Sliptinschit,

I don't think it has been expunged yet. Although it could be expunged at some point in the future.

How do you expunge history? And why does it matter anyway?

The history books will certainly talk about the conviction of Roger Stone.

Always will be?

Not if he is pardoned.

Not if appeals courts overturn his conviction.

Then again, he may see the conviction as a badge of honor and not want it to be removed from is record.

The artist is conservative. Here is some of his other work:

On politics in general:

But don't believe the Anti Defamation League when they falsely accuse the artist of antisemitism. The ADL doctors his work in order to falsely accuse him.

The real cartoon:

As doctored by the Anti Defamation League:

Regarding Roger Stone, he is a huge Richard Nixon fan, to the point of having a large tattoo of Richard Nixon's face on his back.

Mr. Stone also frequently does Mr. Nixon's "V for victory" hand signs exactly as depicted in the cartoon.

I'm a pretty big fan of Richard Nixon myself, but I don't have a giant tattoo of Richard Nixon's face on my skin.

Note this article:

And this full-sized picture (depicting the tattoo) from that article:

Regarding Richard Nixon, he was the first innocent victim of the first progressive witch hunt.

Being compared to Richard Nixon is no shame. The cartoon in question is pro-Trump, pro-Stone, and pro-Nixon.

@oralloy,

I got that from a simple google search of my own.

Nixon is not very popular among American voters in general. This is why the cartoon made me chuckle. Any image that links the Trump administration to the Nixon administration is OK by me.

@maxdancona,

1. I definitely agree with you Max on this one.

2. This posted cartoon image definitely places the Trump administration in a bad light.

3. Me being a democrat, I hope many more images like this one pops up.

What is the Difference Between (Commutation) and a (Pardon)?

Quote:

According to the U.S. Department of Justice, a commutation reduces a sentence, either totally or partially, but does not change the fact of conviction, imply innocence or remove civil disabilities, such as the right to vote or to hold public office.

A commutation can also eliminate financial penalties associated with a federal conviction, but that forgiveness is offered at the discretion of the president.

A pardon is “an expression of the President’s forgiveness,” according to the DOJ. Pardons are typically granted to recognize that the person has accepted responsibility and established good conduct for a significant period of time.

A pardon does not signify innocence, but removes civil disabilities associated with convictions, including giving the recipient of the pardon back their right to vote and to serve on juries, among other freedoms and privileges.

It's just the opposite. Standing up to progressives and their witch hunts is a good thing. It's something to be proud of.

@oralloy,

We are all in agreement then....

Trump is no more a crook than Nixon was!

I think that makes a great campaign slogan.

@maxdancona,

I agree. They are both great presidents. Neither one did anything wrong.

I think White Lives Matter is a better campaign slogan though. We need to start protecting white people from progressives.

No, that is terrible. Do you have any idea what a racist saying that **** makes you appear as? I just can't support that as a thing.

@McGentrix,

It makes me appear like I oppose progressive racism against white people.

Murdering white people is wrong. We need to prevent progressives from allowing black people to do it.

1. Don't get me wrong, I am definitely no fan of Nixon.

2. As bad as Nixon was, Trump has proven himself to be 100 times worse.

3. Trump is so bad, that by comparison Nixon looks like a saint.

4. Wow! These campaign slogans are writing themselves.
