Donald Trump's pardons endanger all Americans. He pardons crypto currency crooks who endanger our national security, he pardons convicted felons who possess firearms, he pardons business executives who defraud nursing homes.
After pardoning more that 1500 of the "boots" of the insurrection - the angry mob he set on the US Capitol on January 6 - Trump has now pardoned 77 of the "suits" of the insurrection - the attorneys and other white collar criminals who were part of Trump's corrupt scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
Glenn sat down with Liz Oyer, former Pardon Attorney for the United States, to discuss these and other pardon-related topics.

| 0:15.1 | Today, Glenn talks with former pardon attorney, Liz Oyer, about Trump's latest pardons. This is Justice |
| 0:22.7 | Matters. Hey, I'm John Fuglesang. Do you ever watch these Christian nationalists and |
| 0:31.3 | right-wing fundamentalists on TV and think, Jesus Christ, these people are the opposite of Jesus |
| 0:37.2 | Christ? You know, Christianity was supposed to be about love and service, Jesus Christ, these people are the opposite of Jesus Christ. |
| 0:38.1 | You know, Christianity was supposed to be about love and service, |
| 0:41.2 | but millions of Americans have grown up to find their nice religions been hijacked |
| 0:45.2 | by this mean authoritarian, tax-free click. |
| 0:48.7 | I wrote a book about how these right-wingers aren't actually on the side of Jesus, |
| 0:52.2 | and historically, they never have been. Separation of church and hate, a sane person's guide to taking back the Bible from fundamentalists, fascists, and flock-pleasing frauds. It's a very irreverent and biblically correct book for believers, atheists, agnostics, and anybody who's ever going to have to deal with a Christian extremist in your family, workplace, or government. On all the issues that divide us, using actual verses from that book they claim to follow, |

| 1:18.7 | You've got a First Amendment right to call them out for it, and you'll be surprised at how good it feels. |

| 1:43.6 | He pardons felons who are in possession of firearms. |
| 1:47.9 | He pardons business executives who defraud nursing homes. And of course, after pardoning more than |
| 1:58.1 | 1,500 of the boots of the insurrection, the angry mob that |
| 2:05.1 | he set on the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, he now has pardoned 77 of the suits of the |
