One was eventually, 34 counts.

The joke was already made. That just came off as cope.

How many of those Maryjane commutations were put in jail by Kamala’s team?
-
It would be interesting to see the details. Presidents of both parties have sought to free ‘non-violent drug offenders’ just to discover there really aren’t many in the federal prisons.

Man, Hunter is raking it in today…

Hey senile old man, did you miss the Community Note?

Hey, did you see my post #20? If not, take a look where I commented on that.
If you did, I have two words, and they're not "Good Morning."

I didn’t see it until after. But I kept my post anyway because you didn’t mention the other two guys and also, and more importantly, I thought it was funny.

Speaking of child endangerment:
A former Pennsylvania judge who was convicted of sending children to jail while receiving millions of dollars in kickbacks from the facility’s operator in the early 2000s was one of the nearly 1,500 people whose sentences were commuted Thursday by President Joe Biden.
Michael Conahan had been sentenced to 171/2 years in federal prison after being convicted of racketeering conspiracy for his role in the so-called Kids for Cash scandal in Luzerne County. Conahan pulled funding from a county-owned juvenile detention center there and agreed to send juveniles to a for-profit facility in exchange for payments, a scheme that netted him and fellow jurist Mark Ciavarella nearly $3 million.
Conahan, who was convicted in 2011, had been serving his sentence in a Florida facility and was set to be released in 2026. But he was placed in home confinement in 2020 because of the pandemic.
