Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)

This! This guy also had a domestic violence charge for strangulation in 2017 and other totally violent thug charges Jan 6 and beyond.
All these violent criminals just pardoned and released on the streets by a president who claims tough on crime. 😡

Finally- long time coming! I was so happy to see that Biden commuted Leonard Peltier’s sentence.
