This is outrageous. And it's far worse than it looks. If you drill down to review details about the crooks he is pardoning, you'll find cases like this one:

Embezzlement Pays!!

From James Freeman's WSJ column:


Was He Trying To Make the Hunter Pardon Look Better?

Granting mass commutations, as President Joe Biden did last week, means almost by definition that he isn’t giving careful consideration to the particulars of each case. And some of them are causing particular outrage among the victimized. The White House announced on Thursday:

"Today, President Biden announced that he is granting clemency to nearly 1,500 Americans – the most ever in a single day – who have shown successful rehabilitation and a strong commitment to making their communities safer. The President is commuting the sentences of close to 1,500 individuals who were placed on home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic and who have successfully reintegrated into their families and communities."


Not all the communities see it that way. Steven Spearie reports for the Springfield State Journal-Register:

"The former comptroller of Dixon, Illinois, convicted of embezzling over $53 million from city coffers, was among nearly 1,500 people who had their sentences commuted by President Joe Biden on Thursday.

Rita Crundwell, 71, served a little over eight years in federal prison for the largest municipal theft in U.S. history and was released on Aug. 4, 2021.

Crundwell has been in a halfway house since her release and had a projected release date of Oct. 20, 2029."


Dixon has a population of only around 14,000, so the theft of more than $53 million was staggering. In all fairness to Mr. Biden, this is one issue where he has managed to forge a bipartisan consensus. Mr. Spearie reports:

Dixon City Manager Danny Langloss Jr. said the decision to commute Crundwell’s sentence was “a complete travesty of justice and a slap in the face for our entire community.”

In a statement, U.S. Rep. Darin LaHood, R-Peoria, called Biden’s decision a “reckless act” and that leniency towards public officials who have abused their power “only further erodes the integrity of our institutions.”

U.S. Rep. Eric Sorenson, D-Moline, in a tweet on X said Crundwell’s “getting off scot-free today is such a load of BS.”

I actually think that Pardons shouldn't be done ever. I'm sorry but if you did the crime- you can do the time. While it MAY unburden our prison system to pull ppl out from non violent crimes- they were convicted by peers in the moment of times. I don't think a pardon is required if policies that have changed would merit a reduction of sentences. That should be done by states or wardens in general. You don't need POTUS to make those pronouncements. Political prisoners- perhaps, but you'd have to have a really - REALLY good reason. Not like the presumed Jan 6th, gang and being stupid and the melee that followed.

Maybe for accusations of crimes not fully convicted, or pled too under duress due to purely political process. Certainly not Charles Kushner, who is a straight up grifter- and conspired to commit multiple crimes. That's not for him- but more like a Mandela or the like.

Joe or any other president doing it is not a good look in my opinion. AND -I'll add that doing it as the door shuts on the administration is just chicken shit no matter who you are.
