    Full-on mask off, now. Owner class protecting owner class, nothing to see here. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for. Move along.

      Biden already pardoned people convicted for simple possession of marijuana back in Oct 2022.

      And in December 2023, expanded that for the offenses of simple possession of marijuana, attempted simple possession of marijuana, or use of marijuana, regardless of whether they had been charged with or prosecuted for the offenses on or before that date.

          How would you know if anyone kept it up? You didn’t follow it the first time and just wanted to be outraged.

            Jesus christ maybe give them some credit for acknowledging they didn’t know? It’s not the like news was too keen on stories highlighting the positive notes of his administration.

    So this looks like a case of local officials letting these people out of jail and to house arrest when clearly they shouldn’t be. It’s the same as some welfare recipients abuse the system, but should we end welfare for all. No. These two slipped through. But plenty more who deserved the pardon got it.

      I get that there were 1500 of them, but pardons/commutations should get a closer look than this.

        So, they were non-violent offenders on house arrest, presumably all of these people were following the terms of their conviction.

        That said, whoever compiled the list should have raised a flag on the ones that had many many victims.
