President Trump on Tuesday night pardoned former top campaign aide and White House strategist Steve Bannon, who was arrested for an alleged scam involving private donations to build a border wall with Mexico.

It was a political prosecution.
What about the other guy - Kolfage?
YAY!
He definitely needs to pardon Assange
As I recall, he was charged with scamming money from donations contributed to a fund to build the wall.
All politically persecuted persons should be pardoned.

President Trump, pardon Assange and Snowden like a boss! These two men have done more to expose the evil corruption of the American police state and deserve the rewards due to freedom patriots.
Be bold and shaft the American oligarchy addicted to Chinese money and favors.
Woo hoo! I hope that he also pardons Kyle Rittenhouse.
Detroit ex-mayor Kwame Kilpatrick got one too.
He didn’t
How would he do that? Rittenhouse was charged with state crimes, not federal. Trump has no jurisdiction there.
“As I recall, he was charged with scamming money from donations contributed to a fund to build the wall.”
Charged by political operative prosecutors.
Good deal.
The charge came from the highly political and notoriously corrupt Southern District of NY.
These are the same people who will try to charge Trump with crimes as soon as he leaves office.
Fox says they have the list and neither he nor Snowden are on it. Disappointing, and I hope he did not swing a deal with Mitch on the promise of no guilty verdict in the Senate (which is unconstitutional anyway).
the “moderate elements” in Trump’s circle drove Bannon out and later doomed the Trump administration.
