You're right - it seems the pardon didn't just cover those convicted, but also those awaiting trial or sentencing

But that still wouldn't include anyone who didn't fall under those categories at the time (20 Jan 2025)

BERMAN: Did you see any evidence of them trying to use a radio in the video you saw?

TOM COTTON: Well I saw lots of evidence of them standing on the boat that had been capsized

BERMAN: That wasn't my question. Did you see any evidence?

COTTON: No, I didn't

Here’s the language. This covers him. His crime is definitely related to the January 6th attack on the Capitol.

Doesn’t Trump’s blanket pardon cover this guy?

NEW: Carol Loennig tells Nicoll Wallace on MSNOW that the DOJ intends to try and indict Letitia James a THIRD time.

The trouble with that is these multiple tries help James prove her vindictive and selective prosecution bid, and bolster a case to get the grand jury materials.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

They cannot be given authority to forcibly remove anyone from their vehicle this way. Think about how bad actors would abuse this power.

Can't believe our tax dollars are going to be spent settling the upcoming exorbitant defamation suit with Sabrina Carpenter, but maybe this is just how public arts funding is going to work now.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

just to drive home the point. Texas created this map in August. the lower court rendered its decision November. So three months later, a year before the election in question.

(2/2) Noah Feldman and Neal Katyal will lose their shit. Ezra will say Roberts et al are doing justicing the right way. The Atlantic will do a special issue opposing it.

But letting effete centrists gate-keepers control left-liberal discourse is why we are in such bad shape to begin with.

(1/2) This court is a problem that won't go away. They'll block everything the next Dem president does.

Got to start talking about "court reform" now. "Republicans in robes", "corruption". Not "packing" or "expanding".

Start framing the discussion now.

We know that...

This is why I can’t stand all the pie-in-the-sky fantasies about what a progressive president will do with unitary executive power.

The next Democratic president won’t be able to take a dump without the Supreme Court upholding a ruling by a Texas judge that presidents are no longer allowed to shit.

ICE is snatching up American citizens with ID and throwing them in jail for days at a time without any form of due process. But someone with pink hair did a land acknowledgment at my last HOA meeting. I have never felt more politically homeless.

As a US senator, my heart breaks for the families of the Venezuelans that Pete Hegseth ordered executed without trial. If they could see my state’s Republican primary polling data, I think they would understand why I had to vote to confirm him.
