Trump is deporting the guy who mows your lawn but releasing the guy who bashed a police officer’s head in back to your community.

President Biden said on Thursday that he is commuting the sentences of nearly 1,500 people and pardoning 39 people convicted of nonviolent crimes in a sweeping act of clemency during his final weeks in office.
Biden Commutes the Sentences of Nearly 1,500 Americans, a Record for One Day
