President Trump said he will pardon Susan B. Anthony, the leader of the women’s suffrage movement who was arrested for violating male-only voting laws in 1872, at an event later Tuesday.
“I will be signing a full and complete pardon for Susan B. Anthony,” he told reporters at the White House. “She was never pardoned.”
The pardon comes 100 years to the day after the 19th Amendment, which ensured women’s right to vote, was ratified.

I bet the NOW gang are just seething.... LOL
Man, he’s having too much fun.
Weird though because it was a state charge. I think trump can only pardon federal.
I think you are correct
She was tried in federal court so Trump can pardon her.
Absolutely. Without the 19th we would never have heard of Bill Clinton. (Or likely, JFK.)
You got to love a former reality TV star who knows how to manipulate the media and cause liberal heads to explode.
I mean by definition they oppose and resist everything Trump does, so how can they favor pardoning Susan B Anthony?
LOL
SBA was a Republican! I guess they’ll say Trump is a sexist.
