minus-squareRichardBonhamlinkfedilink3•2 years agoIf she is, it would probably be to change laws in the State of Georgia to allow a president to pardon someone of Georgia state charges.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•2 years agoDing ding ding!!! Republicans don’t give a fuck about constitution, states rights, rule of law, or even basic decency. The first thing republican governor in GA would do is to overturn that state law to pardon the Florida man.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•2 years agoI read on lemmy that GA is one of 5 states where that’s not true. They have an independent panel to approve pardons.
Is she running for governor of GA?
