I am surprised that he has not pardoned Leonard Peltier or at least commuted his sentence. He still has about 90 minutes to do so. I was also surprised that Obama did not pardon or commute his sentence.

Thank you for bringing up real history. I looked up Peltier and he would seem to be a valid candidate for a pardon. Native peoples have faced oppression and discriminations from both parties! I remember Wounded knee from the early 70’s.

You joke about Jim Crow.

Biden pardoned Marcus Garvey who had meetings with the KKK because they shared common goals.

When Garvey was called out for doing that he defended himself, saying it was the right thing to do.

Its no joke that Biden pardoned Garvey.

These pardons should be challenged. When the Constitution was adopted, our founding fathers did not have theses types of pardons in mind. In those days, pardon were granted for convicted offenses, or at least for offenses that everyone knew too place, such as participation in an armed rebellion.

“Posthumous” because the pardoned are dead, or because the pardoner is?

I think article II grants plenary power of pardon to the executive which is not reviewable as a check against the federal judiciary. The only recourse for Biden to not have done this and for it to stick in my thoughts would have been an amendment 25 exercise against Biden.

I think we are stuck with it.

Red Badger you’re making me research! Apparently he was the chief torturer during the Inquisition.
