36. I'll give you the first batch of people he'll pardon

Thu May 14, 2026, 02:22 PM

May 14

They are Adam Fox, Joseph Morrison, Ty Garbin, Barry Croft, Kaleb Franks, Pete Musico, Shawn Fix, Paul Bellar and Brian Higgins.

"Who are they?" They are all the people who were convicted in a plot to kidnap and kill Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer and to violently overthrow the state government. There were others in the plot who were acquitted, but these are the ones who went to the hoosegow. He might not get the chance to pardon Garbin and Fix because the state prosecuted them, but he'll be especially interested in pardoning Barry Croft since he got sent to ADX Florence.

After that he'll probably spring all the Americans currently locked up in ADX Florence. This might superficially be a good thing because it'll leave more room to house the Trump Administration, but in general it would be really bad.
