Justice delayed is still justice of a sort, and for Paul Manafort it was the best he could hope for.
Manafort is the former chairman of the 2016 Trump campaign who was targeted by the CIA, FBI and Justice Department as part of the Democrat Party’s plot to destroy Donald Trump. He was serving a 7 1/2 year prison term essentially for refusing to testify against Trump in the Fake Russia collusion scandal.
The lame charges against Manafort included that he had shared internal campaign polls in Ukraine with a longtime Russian business associate during Trump’s run for office (as if campaign polls are state secrets!). Moreover, there were multiple charges of tax evasion from a decade earlier. Those allegations had all been investigated years before and dismissed by the Justice Department, but Robert Mueller resurrected the charges because he needed to do something to justify his huge budget.
On Friday, President Trump also granted a full pardon to his longtime adviser Roger Stone, whose sentence had already been commuted last July. Stone was convicted of nothing more than being a friend of President Trump who had the courage to call Mueller’s gang of thugs a gang of thugs.
Further infuriating liberal nonentities at CNN, Trump also pardoned New York businessman Charles Kushner, the father of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.
Charles Kushner had been prosecuted by then-US Attorney for New Jersey Chris Christie in the early 2000s for tax evasion, witness tampering and illegal campaign contributions. It is hard to know for sure whether President Trump issued this pardon our of respect for Jared or out of disdain for Christie. Either way, well done!
Add these pardons to the one issued Tuesday to George Papadopoulos, and President Trump is finally close to setting straight the injustices meted out by the corrupt Justice Department during the Russia Hoax. He should definitely issue pardons to himself and other members of the family before he leaves office because otherwise Democrats will hound them for the rest of their days.
One last point. Attorney General Bill Barr officially left office today, giving President Trump a chance to make sure special prosecutors are appointed to handle the Hunter Biden investigation and the 2020 election fraud scandal. Get ‘er done!

Paul Manafort and others prosecuted, persecuted, and harassed by obama’s DOJ, FBI, and CIA, is one of the saddest outcomes this country has ever been subjected to. I’ve often said that I support President Trump, and brag that I am one day younger than he is, so I am 74 and I am so sick at heart that Biden is hiring all obama’s devious and seditious power hungry parasites, Jen psaki who is a wonderful liar; the former Chief of Staff for obama Tom Dougherty, probably Ben Rhodes among the power hungry, and others who are licking their chops and rubbing their hands together to start ruining our country the way obama did. The old, rotten gang is back together. Revolting. They are revolting. Subhumans. But if we actually “revolt,” the way the Democrats did for 4 years, they will demand that we stop and then have all their media close contacts label us and call our movement what they actually practiced for 4 years, i e., Sedition.

Fortunately, Lori Loughlin was released from 2 months in prison for trying to do the best she could for her daughters to have a college experience at the University of Southern California. Ms. Loughlin and her husband, Massimo – who unfairly got 5 months in the slammer for the same crime – were dealing with a corrupt institution in the only way a corrupt institution can be dealt with. By doing whatever they demanded. This family, and approximately 20-30 other parents, were singled out for a crime of keeping their family together. Yet….. The BLM people don’t want you to have a solid nuclear family, so this kind of crime is not their style. During the time period of this non crime of paying extremely high fees to get their offspring into Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford (Chelsea??), and other well connected universities, entire cities were being burned out; Gucci, Nike, and Macy’s were being looted; city buildings had rioters threatening the lives of the residents and business owners. But thank God the law put the dangerous “parents” behind bars (that’s supposed to be sarcasm). I wish President Trump would pardon each one of these parents. Plus, California has “FINED” them hundreds of thousands of dollars. Appalling. Where is that money going? To Gavin for dinner with the staff? The parents did what they needed to do to infiltrate a “SYSTEMICALLY” CORRUPT institution of supposed “higher education.” When will the colleges be examined and fixed? From their overcharging for not educating young adults, to the ridiculously high salaries for these non-educators, and an audit of WHAT they are teaching. American principles or Marxist garbage? I hope President Trump stays strong and Betsy DeVos, who worked so hard for four years, agrees to stay on when the administration gets four more years. Ms. DeVos was making so much progress despite the left leaning media who attacked her on a daily basis.

As you said, Bill Barr is left his position as attorney general. Good, because I want Edward Snowden and Julian Assange to be pardoned. Why didn’t Bill Barr want Snowden pardoned? Supposedly Snowden released info that exposed the identities of CIA operatives, or processes and methods…..since I don’t believe anything anyone says, particularly those in the Obama administration, or undercover swamp man Barr, I think these two men, Assange and Snowden, have the ability to track down “voter fraud,” as well as expose swamp people. Now THAT’S why Bill Barr and his cronies do not want Snowden pardoned. I would love Assange and Snowden to work on Trump’s behalf. That should scare Comey, McCabe, Sally Yates, Strzok, Lisa page, Barack Hussein Obama, and Hillary “the grifter” Clinton.
