Moonbeam Brown and other Governors doing this have gone completely insane.

These illegal aliens need to be charged with federal crimes, not state crimes.

[dontreadthis]

this is bullshit
we need nation-wide martial law until this crap is cleaned up

[GraceG]

any alien who commits a crime after being pardoned by the governor should be tracked and used against the governors when they run again.

Since when can a state governor pardon someone guilty of a federal crime - illegally entering the country???

Did you think this thru?
Becareful what you wish for...

When will the pro-Mexican governors issue a general pardon for all US citizens convicted of serious crimes that put them at risk of being divided from their families?

That’s right. Never.

So why does Brown do that only for foreigners? Do they count more, is their vote more important?

Oh Wait, they aren’t supposed to be voting...

[dontreadthis]

if Rosenstein is fired, MoveOn is ready to riot

[jazusamo]

That’s my question also.

A governor can legally pardon a criminal for a state crime but Immigration law is federal law as I understand it.

Of course just coming into the country illegally now doesn’t seem to be considered a crime now which is BS in my view.

[ConservativeMind]

They are still here illegally.

“Hector’s case is in many ways a classic example how draconian our immigration laws have become,” said Bardis Vakili, a lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union in San Diego...

What the hell is she babbling about? Our immigration laws have remained essentuially the same for the last 30 years.

If sessions were serious and not a deep-state plant:

[WayneS]

Okay by me. They better not riot within a couple of hundred yards of my house, though, or I will literally have a field day.

The HATE of the left represents a complete takeover of the DemonRAT party and they will stop at nothing (and I mean nothing) to destroy and remove this President. The first halfrican infiltrated their addled brains and set the stage for FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION.

Go back as watch the you tube videos of WHY DID YOU VOTE FOR OBAMA - brains of complete mush - thanks to your public ed system and a DNC run media.

[boop]

How many white crackheads who shot at cars did Brown pardon?

Even if they kept their nose clean for the past few years?

[Regulator]

You KNOW the answer

For them, the back of the hand

For Los Mexicanos, the open hand with gifts

[Lurkinanloomin]

Pardoning foreigner criminals so they can prey on US citizens..............unbelievable.

[Secret Agent Man]

Governors cannot pardon federal crimes. Not in their jurisdiction.

The article says this guy was a veteran? Can non citizens serve in the military?
