Just when you thought the pardons couldn't shock you any more than the January 6th terrorists, Fuckface Von Clownstick goes one further.

He posted this statement to his website, announcing that he has pardoned Ross Ulbricht.

If that name doesn't ring any bells, Ross Ulbricht ran the dark web service known as Silk Road. It was designed as a commerce service for people to buy and sell illegal goods and services.

Ulbricht has been in prison since 2013, and was serving a double life sentence without parole for multiple counts of conspiracy to commit money laundering, conspiracy to commit computer hacking, conspiracy to traffic narcotics, and engaging in a continuing criminal enterprise.

He was also found to have used this same dark web service of his to have made multiple payments to murder-for-hire services.

Ironic that this pardon comes after he not only talks about the death penalty for drug offences. But declares the Cartel a terrorist organisation.

But I suppose it doesn't count, as Ulbricht is white and has the support of America's Libertarian movement.

The same Libertarian movement that in the past has expressed support for so-called "Sovereign Citizens" like the Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVey.

@ShredderLivesOn Nothing matters.

It's all just disjointed grandstanding for an audience of witless yes-men.

Trying to find consistency or meaning in fascist policy is to walk into a trap.
