LOL @ "triggered."

This news pleases me. It doesn't really affect policy or anyone's lives - but it's Trump screaming to the world (as if they didn't know already), "This is who I am!!!"

not according to daily kos when they were testing the waters 4 obummer 2 pardon crooked hillary



As Alexander Hamilton argued in The Federalist No. 74, "in seasons of insurrection or rebellion there are often critical moments when a well-timed offer of pardon to the insurgents or rebels may restore the tranquility of the commonwealth; and which, if suffered to pass unimproved, it may never be possible afterwards to recall." Presidents have sought to use the pardon power to overcome or mitigate the effects of major crises that afflicted the polity. President George Washington granted an amnesty to those who participated in the Whiskey Rebellion; Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson issued amnesties to those involved with the Confederates during the Civil War; and Presidents Gerald R. Ford and James Earl Carter granted amnesties to Vietnam-era draft evaders.

"The Maricopa County Attorney's Office has chosen not to prosecute Arizona Department of Corrections staff in the death of inmate Marcia Powell." They don't mention Arpaio.

All that tells me is that the Attorney's office is just as corrupt as Arpaio and his henchmen.

The woman was mentally ill and working as a prostitute. She wasn't in there for a felony, it was a Class 1 misdemeanor.

This is the money quote: "It means they've gotten away with the most colossal example of brutality I have seen against a female prisoner in the history of the Arizona Department of Corrections," remarked Hamm, adding, "And they got off scot-free."
