Biden pardons Marcus Garvey, Don Scott and 3 others in final full day action

CBS NEWS

Washington — President Biden issued a handful of pardons in his final full day in office, granting clemency to individuals who he said have "made significant contributions to improving their communities" as the sun sets on his presidency.

"America is a country built on the promise of second chances," Mr. Biden said in a statement, noting that he has used his clemency power to "make that promise a reality" with more individual pardons and commutations than any other President in history — a record he set after commuting the sentences of almost 2,500 people on Friday.

The president granted clemency Sunday to five people, most of whom were convicted of non-violent drug offenses, and commuted the sentence of two individuals who he said have demonstrated "remorse, rehabilitation, and redemption" in decades of incarceration.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Still waiting for the BIG BOMB of 'political' pardons for just about every Congressman and every Democrat who has ever worked on his behalf.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

His brother was among the last. Why did he not pardon himself?
Oh yes, I forgot, he has that too goofy to stand trial thing protecting him.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
