Biden DOJ officials attempted to pressure Shirley to “revive the discredited Russia hoax against Donald Trump; falsely claim the 2018 Florida recounts – which elected Gov. Ron DeSantis and Sen.

Just the News is one of the most honest news sources.
They are not easily fooled.
My gut tells me this is a horrible travesty, and he should be pardoned. Or at least released pending an appeal.
Slo Joe Biden is/has always been a horrible person.
Why does this spin in circles instead of telling the story?
