The pro-life activists who suffered partisan prosecution over the last four years by President Joe Biden’s weaponized Department of Justice could have a chance at clemency if incoming President Donald Trump honors their request for “full and unconditional pardons.”
The Thomas More Society, which has represented several of the peaceful protestors targeted by the Biden administration for their opposition to baby-killing, submitted nearly two dozen petitions asking Trump to give those who were “unjustly imprisoned” and “unjustly convicted” for advocating to protect life in the womb presidential reprieve.
“These individuals participated in mere peaceable civil disobedience, in the heralded tradition of the American Civil Rights activists,” the letter accompanying the petitions states. “Peaceable actions like these usually merit, at worst, a minor misdemeanor conviction. And had they been opposing anything but abortion, Joe Biden would have given them medals — instead Biden wanted them branded as ‘convicted felons’ and imprisoned for years in a federal penitentiary.”
Despite at least 90 abortion-fueled firebombings, vandalism, and other attacks on lifesaving pregnancy centers, pro-life organizations, and churches after the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson opinion was publicized, Biden’s DOJ focused almost solely on targeting abortion dissidents.
Ultimately, only five of the 60 FACE Act cases pursued by the Biden regime zeroed in on pro-abortion extremists. The other 55 targeted people who value life in the womb for praying, singing, and evangelizing.

If Trump promised that would be done than it will be done.
No one is fighting harder to block the J6 Pardons than RINO Senator Tillis
“Thom Tillis says he saw lots of injured police on Jan 6 and clearly gets angry at suggestion Pres Trump will pardon anyone convicted of assaulting police.”
This thread isn’t about J6
