DOJ officials say Biden showed mercy to offenders who did not deserve it

Joe Biden’s last few days in office were filled with a flurry of pardons that were very questionable.

Biden and Democrats lost the right to complain about any Trump pardons when Biden pardoned his family members and dozens of violent criminals.

Reports are now surfacing the members of Biden’s DOJ team believe he showed too much mercy.

Didn’t Deserve It

Pardon Attorney Elizabeth Oyer has worked with the DOJ in the past on pardons.

She sent an email to the DOJ just days before Biden left office calling out the commutations and pardons given by Biden, saying there were people “who otherwise wouldn’t meet the department’s standards for recommendation for receipt of clemency.”

Oyer added, “While I am a strong believer in the possibility of second chances through clemency, the process by which yesterday’s action was carried out was not what we had hoped and advocated for.”

Gary Brown, a U.S. District Court judge for the Eastern District of New York, made a strong case to have presidential pardon powers dialed back, stating that Biden’s pardons and commutations “spotlight the problems that invariably arise when a president’s unreviewable pardon authority is deployed impetuously, resulting in careless execution of the president’s directives.”

One of the individuals who received a commuted sentence was Carl Andrews, a man with a long history of prior drug convictions, including threatening women into sex work, had his sentence commuted for conspiring to deal crack cocaine.

Brown stated, “Given this record, it is hard to classify the defendant as a ‘deserving individual.'”

I still remember the outrage by Joe Biden and Democrats when Trump was considering pre-emptive pardons during his first term, yet it was Joe Biden who actually gave pre-emptive pardons to his family members.

I have never hidden the fact that I thought Trump screwed up giving pardons to individuals who beat on police officers on January 6. I believe every one of them should still be in jail, but liberals who did not push back against Biden’s pardons have no right to say anything on that front.

That is the biggest problem that I see in this country today. Few people will call out both sides, then get on their soapbox and cry like babies when the other side does something they don’t like. Everyone is so divided politically, they look the other way or make excuses when their side breaks the rules.

I might be tough on Trump, but I am tough on everyone. As much as I disliked Trump’s pardons, Joe Biden’s, in my eyes, were far worse because he put hardened criminals back on the streets.

Yet, you probably did not hear a single one of your liberal friends complain about it.
