Professor Corey Brettschneider argues Pres. Trump’s commutation of Roger Stone is unconstitutional. “In broad daylight, people…have just lost the meaning of the constitution to the point where they think ‘well, that’s allowed.’” (corrects: commutation)

But Corey is wrong. So what's the point?

Well isn’t though? Nothing is being done about it!!!

We Live In A Time Where Everything Is Politicized!! So Now All Things Must Be Politically Correct Instead Of Morally Correct. That’s How A Clown Becomes President!!

Meanwhile, Congress sleeps.

USA MUST IMPLEMENT NEW STANDARDS BY WHICH A PERSON CAN RUN FOR PRESIDENT NEW RULES OVER PRESIDENTS TO MAKE SURE THEY COMPLY WITH MORALS HIGH STANDARDS HIGH VALUES ETHICAL VALUES DIGNIFY THE OFFICE WITH RESPECT GRACE MERCY COMPASSION LOVE OF ALL PEOPLE.

USA MUST INCLUDE NEW RULES TO FIRE A PRESIDENT WHEN SUCH AS PARDONS TO HIS CRIMINAL FRIENDS COHORTS, FAMILY CAN NOT WORK FOR PRESIDENTS, PRESIDENTS MUCH GIVE 8 YEARS OF TAX RETURNS BEFORE THEY CAN RUN FOR OFFICE, 4 INDEPENDENT MENTAL HEALTH EVALUATIONS ANY OTHER RULES

Do Trump's Twitter Followers Want Him To Release His Tax Returns? The Poll Results Are In:

Another uneducated professor, go figure.

It doesn't seem to matter if it's constitutional or not because he gets away with ALL OF IT. It's disgusting

Donald could care less. He does whatever he wants; whenever he wants--and gets away with it. It's as if no one knows what to do to reign in or punish this narcissistic occupant of the OO whom Mary Trump has verified is (as we've seen) the 'The Most Dangerous Man in the World'

Lol.

Trump is a mobster

How do you come up with this crazy commentary, when Obama pardoned the bomb maker what did you say

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Two criminals helping each other to evade responsibility

No it's not

The courts have ruled that Trump doesn't have blanket immunity like he claimed. That means his relationship with Stone cannot legally be excused. It's tantamount to Good Ole Boy System of law enforcement. If the Prez can pardon any of his people then there is no check on him.

PANIC

That’s my thoughts & beliefs where does his power end with many more pressing issues that should warrant his legal attention for the betterment of the country!?

Arrest the impeached criminal. Send stone to prison. That will be democracy.

He has wiped his ass with the constitution. Yes there are people that are tired of the government being turned into a shithole. The best thing is to vote but he will cheat to win again

SenWarren SenSchumer DNC SpeakerPelosi SenKamalaHarris SenFeinstein RepJerryNadler

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

So true!

He has walked all over the constitution since day 1, with the do nothing senates blessing.

Put him on a panel with some Consitutional heavyweights. Any partisan can throw unchallenged bombs on hate cable. Americans have heard it 24/7 for 4 years.

Just think of it. When a democrat becomes president they'll be able to help their friends stay out of jail. Never mind that Trump is the one with so many criminal friends. But what would you expect from the king of the swamp rats with so many ties to criminals.

Lads Roger stone was convicted because of the Russia investigation which turned out to be a hoax... How can you still send someone to prison if the original investigation fell through ?😂😂 Talking absolute shite . FAKE NEWS!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣wait, wait, wait, ok 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

SpeakerPelosi RepJerryNadler RepAdamSchiff: Tweeting your concerns isn’t enough. 1. Arrest TraitorBarr with inherent contempt power, he’s is an immediate threat to the election. 2. Impeach TraitorTrump again. Act Now! JoeBiden: start calling Trump what he is TraitorTrump.

adamvanho Wrong.

So, somebody sue him, please! I would myself but, you know, money...

Can anything be done to fight this or change it in any way?

Oh what BS ! obama let terrorists out FFS !

Ask yourself, why didn't Prez Trump just pardon Mr Stone? Wouldn't a pardon admit there was guilt. Wait for the unbiased and fair retrial of Mr Stone. Maybe the fake news will start reporting the truth and not the propaganda.

Wise men who refused to do anything, suffer the ruling of idiots.

Roger Stone is an innocent man attacked by cancel culture. Trump was strong and set the record straight. Two more terms!

Retweet. July 18th, the start of an Anti Trumpism Movement. We need help on forming protests.

Our legal system has failed us AGAIN!

Lock him up! Lock him back up!

Actually we don’t think it’s allowed just like we don’t think the other 1,000 corrupts acts are allowed. Yet we are forced to have them blatantly displayed before our eyes. It’s disheartening and exhausting.

It’s interesting how all that despise Trump claim everything he does is either illegal or unconstitutioHal! However all the asswipes pardoned or commuted by the likes of Clinton or Obama I expect we’re just peachy! Their TDS has gotten comedic!

With Trump there is no law!

more fake news, this time totally extreme-fake news. all the travesty of justice-victims of OBAMAGATE/RUSSIA HOAX-CORRUPTION TO THWART WE THE VOTERS' WILL N OVERTHROW OUR DULY ELECTED PRES, (stone, flynn, manafort, n gp), should all be fully pardoned.

Our democracy has shifted dangerously away from law and order and toward a Trump dictatorship. Another 4 years of Trump's disregard for our constitution and rule of law will forever scar our freedom and way of life as we knew it. Restore sanity to our government and elect Biden.

lol Lawyers opinions, are like asshole's everyone has one...

yes - you cannot get pardoned (not sure about commutation) by the President if what you did helped the President.

Any of these?

I'm a preschool teacher. It doesn't take a constitutional scholar to figure out that Roger Stone belongs in prison, along with the whole Trump Crime Family. MakeItSo Call me old fashioned, but I believe in Lady Justice. LadyJustice

What did he say about Obama’s 1700 commutations? You people are so sad.

maggiePaintet Not everyone has lost faith in the rule of law. MIGHTY will be the fall of them ALL. keepliving wearthemask WatchGod

CheriJacobus He's breaking all the rules and that is unacceptable.

SO! I REPEAT...AND YES I AM SHOUTING...WHO IS GOING TO DO WHAT ABOUT IT?

BrettschneiderC Is there a way for judge Amy Berman Jackson to, essentially, not except the commutation and send it up to the Supreme Court For a ruling on the constitutionality?

Has ANYONE on the left ever even READ the Constitution?

Didnt BarackObama pardon a terrorist? FakeNews FakeNewsMedia FakeNewsAlert

Every 3 weeks there’s a “That’s illegal! He can’t do that.” type video. Trump does what he wants since day 1. No punishment, no accountability.

This professor is the problem with schools today . He needs to go back and learn about constitutional law and our Constitution . Did he have a problem when Clinton did this Bush?Obama? Ridiculous!!

We have to get him and the GOP out of office.. then let the criminal trials begin.. no bunkers no executive privilege no Mitch no Barr just trump and long slow arm of justice

Have him explain why. Have him explain what’s different then previous Presidents. His just seeking 15 of fame

ImpeachTrump ImpeachTrumpAgain ImpeachTrumpAgain ImpeachTrumpAgain ImpeachTrumpAgain and ImpeachTrumpAgain .
