Does Ben Shapiro know Presidents don’t have the power to pardon state convictions? Does Elon?

Trump can pardon Chauvin’s convictions for violating George Floyd’s civil rights and his conviction in a separate 2017 case (violated the civil rights of a 14 year-old boy by choking and beating him with a flashlight and kneeling heavily on his upper back while he was handcuffed leading to the boy becoming unconscious).

Chauvin is also serving a state sentence for tax evasion.
 


“… The invitation specifically states that “Donald J. Trump is appearing at this event only as a featured speaker, and is not asking for funds or donations.” The event occurred at 7:00pm on March 1 and was listed on the president’s official schedule as the “MAGA INC. Candlelight Finance Dinner.”

This is the only event by that name on Trump’s official schedule since he took office. …”

Biden Crime Family!!! Hypocrisy!!!!!!

Behold the Strange Spectacle of Christians Against Empathy​


“… The Republican Christian right made a hard turn against immigration and, in its most extreme political faction, is turning against empathy itself.

In 2020, Ryan Burge, perhaps the nation’s leading researcher of statistical trends in American religion, found that white evangelicals were the religious cohort of Americans most likely to support separating children from parents when their parents enter the country illegally. They were also the cohort mostly likely to support drastic reductions in legal immigration.

… At the same time, hard-right Christians began to turn against the very idea of empathy. Last year a popular right-wing podcaster, Allie Beth Stuckey, published a best-selling book called “Toxic Empathy: How Progressives Exploit Christian Compassion.” This month, a right-wing theologian, Joe Rigney, is publishing a book called “The Sin of Empathy: Compassion and Its Counterfeits.

These attacks are rooted in the idea that progressives emotionally manipulate evangelicals into supporting causes they would otherwise reject. For example, if people respond to the foreign aid shutdown and the stop-work orders by talking about how children might suffer or die, then they’re exhibiting toxic empathy.

That’s one reason you’ll often see a shocking amount of derision online when anyone starts talking about the human toll of Trump’s decisions. His MAGA evangelicals are broadcasting that you cannot reach them with anything that looks like an appeal to the heart. . …”
 
Just googling and spitballing, so take the numbers with a large grain of salt.

Estimated 1 million people worldwide with a net worth of $10 million. Forty percent are Americans. That leaves 600,000 people with net worths of $10 million. How many want or need to move to the USA?

I’m spitballing that someone with $10 million could liquidate assets and come up with the $5 million in cash (I realize that it’s a stretch for a $10 million estate to come up with $5 million in cash).

If all 600,000 buy the $5 million visa, that’s $3 trillion. That knocks a nice hunk off the national debt.

How many of those 600,000 are drug kingpins, sex traffickers, warlords, etc?
