“Traditionally, presidents have issued pardons to right a wrong or to protect those who have been falsely accused of wrongdoing. In 2025, if Trump sees a convicted criminal as an ally, or even the relative of an ally, that’s apparently all the president needs to know.”
“You’re a Republican official convicted of corruption charges? You get a pardon. You helped finance the president’s stablecoin and put money in the Trump family’s pockets? You get a pardon.” www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Trump boycotts South Africa's G20, but some Afrikaners hit back at his claims. What is he up to, or does he just not want to give up golf/party time? Or maybe he thinks it will interfere with his naps?
