Alice Johnson Thanks Jesus Christ and President Trump for Sentence Commutation
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
After Johnson’s case was brought to his attention by reality TV superstar Kim Kardashian West, Trump commuted her sentence.
This was the scene Wednesday as Johnson was released.
“First of all, I want to thank my Lord and Savior, thank Jesus Christ. Without him, I can do nothing. With him, I can do everything,” she said. “I want to thank President Donald John Trump. Hallelujah!,” she added, as the crowd around her cheered at the sound of the president’s name. “Thank you for giving me another chance at life and restoring me to my family.’
Speaking of Kardashian West, Johnson added, “Bless Kim, our little angel. Thank you, thank you.”
Johnson, who is now 63, had been serving a life sentence in a federal prison in Aliceville, Alabama, since 1996.
According to Mic, the outlet that first publicized Johnson’s story, which in turn got the attention of Kardashian West, “Johnson was convicted for her role facilitating communications in a cocaine trafficking operation in Memphis, Tennessee.” She was then handed a sentence of life with no chance of parole, plus another 25 years.
This was Johnson’s first offense.
Once incarcerated, Johnson became a model prisoner, a playwright and minister to the other female prisoners.
There is no record of her ever having been involved in any kind of violence.
Kardashian West told the Mic that while meeting with Trump, he “really spent the time to listen to our case that we were making for Alice. He really understood, and I am very hopeful that this will turn out really positively.”
Johnson again thanked Kardashian West and Trump Thursday morning on ABC’s Good Morning America.
When asked if she felt she had paid her debt to society, Johnson said she felt she had “overpaid,” but did not deny committing the crimes that resulted in her 22-year imprisonment, which were quite serious:
Minutes after her GMA appearance Trump tweeted, “Good luck to Alice Johnson. Have a wonderful life.”

By contrast, here's what really happened:
As if vast numbers of people, black and white, can't relate to that and feel the joy as she shouts, "I love you, President Trump!"
That reveals to us what's really bothering the left. Trump is not only stealing their thunder on the cause of unjust sentences (and this one was unjust), but bringing a whole lot of black people into the Republican Party as a result of his correcting this wrong. https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2018/06/with_pardoned_alice_johnson_shouting_i_love_you_president_trump__the_left_stews_at_being_outsmarted_by_him.html
No other president has pardoned a black person before...Really!!!!
The last thing I thought I would ever say is "Wtg Kim and Trump."
By 2020 you will be voting for Trumps re-election!
One "atta boy" no way wipes out all the "ah shits" he has done so there is no way in 2020 that I will vote for him.
That will be when his first parole hearing will be held.
For what, exactly?
Obstruction of justice and money laundering most likely.
Thank you Jesus and Rump for releasing the LEADER (not merely one playing a " role facilitating communications in a cocaine trafficking operation" as dishonestly being rendered in this article) and thank you as well to the TV whore and perfectly ridiculous role model for little ones, who got on her knees in front of the Prez to facilitate the jail-break.
I'm sure Jesus is so thankful as well, to all who share this idiocy for political purposes.
Funny some act like she was just a casual user. There was money laundering involved, among other things.
She served 22 years.
Yeah, it says above it was her first offense. So?
Yeah, so?
I meant to say Ender - that just because she is a first time offender - according to the article - that's a pretty big freaking offense - money laundering, drug trafficking.
I just think that it's kind of funny. I have heard conservative people say things like, think about the children, think about all the lives she ruined, think about all the addicts she made, etc.
Now all of the sudden, because trump did it, it's ok, she deserves to get out, it was a minor offence...
Then you seem to be in a minority within your brethren. I have heard some say that pot smokers shouldn't get out early.
A man that was convicted with her also got a life sentence. Why does she get out and he is still behind bars? They were working together.
Obvious 'collusion' between Trump and Kanye West and his Kardashian eye candy.
Drug trafficking and money laundering - is hardly a simple drug offense.
Many conservatives with any libertarian in our make up might be a little more compassionate regarding non violent drug crimes. She served 22 years. Democrats have been talking sentencing reform for several years now and now that Trump agrees with him they lose interest and want to throw away the key 🔑 for an African American grandmother who has already served 22 years?
It was simply the first time she got caught.....in the time before how many families did she destroy, how many lives did she ruin?
No way to know. She served 22 years. There have been murderers who served less time and got out. So, are liberals going to abandon sentencing reform now that they know Trump is for it?
Jeeezus! You should do a little reading before you write.
There is nothing in his reform language that addresses Sentence Reform.
When did Trump embrace sentencing reform? He issued a pardon in a vain attempt to curry favor...
Really? The libertarian populist is showing now with this and having the federal government bow to states rights in determining what to do about marijuana. And his offer of citizenship for 1.8 million DACA people before.
Which is not right either.....how many people died because of the poison she was pushing?
Trump never said he was for sentencing reforms....My point.
In March of this year the same POTUS was advocating for the death penalty for the LEADERS of these drug pushing rings citing "thousands of deaths and lives ruined".
Now he's pandering to Kim and Kanye to commute this woman's sentence?
SMDH
Trump has even endorsed Duterte's death squads against drug dealers.
I don't recall you being so upset when this information was revealed a few years ago, Larry.
U.S. misinformed Congress, public on immigrant release
by Brad Heath of USA Today
New records contradict the Obama administration's assurances to Congress and the public that the 2,200 people it freed from immigration jails last year to save money had only minor criminal records.
New records contradict the Obama administration's assurances to Congress and the public that the 2,200 people it freed from immigration jails last year to save money had only minor criminal records.
The records, obtained by USA TODAY, show immigration officials released some undocumented immigrants who had faced far more serious criminal charges, including people charged with kidnapping, sexual assault, drug trafficking and homicide.
The release sparked a furor in Congress. Republican lawmakers accused the Obama administration of setting dangerous criminals free. In response, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it had released " low-risk offenders who do not have serious criminal records ," a claim the administration repeated to the public and to members of Congress.
The new records, including spreadsheets and hundreds of pages of e-mails, offer the most detailed information yet about the people ICE freed as it prepared for steep, across-the-government spending cuts in February 2013. They show that although two-thirds of the people who were freed had no criminal records, several had been arrested or convicted on charges more severe than the administration had disclosed.
ICE spokeswoman Gillian Christensen acknowledged the discrepancy. She said "discretionary releases made by ICE were of low-level offenders. However, the releases involving individuals with more significant criminal histories were, by and large, dictated by special circumstances outside of the agency's control."
Lawmakers expressed concern. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said it is "deeply troubling that ICE would knowingly release thousands of undocumented immigrant detainees many with prior criminal records into our streets, while publicly downplaying the danger they posed."
Immigration authorities detain an average of about 34,000 people a day. Although the agency regularly releases immigrants who have been charged with serious crimes, it typically does so because their legal status has changed or because they cannot be deported not as a way to save money. That distinction, combined with the fact that last year's release happened abruptly and with no advance notice, fed the partisan firestorm that followed.
ICE pays an average of $122 a day for each immigrant it keeps in detention.
The detainees were awaiting deportation or hearings in immigration court. The release did not stop those proceedings; instead, most were released with electronic monitors or other forms of supervision.
In hearings last year, Republican lawmakers pressed then-ICE Director John Morton for specifics on the criminal records of the people the agency had freed. At one, Rep. J. Randy Forbes, R-Va., asked Morton directly, "No one on that list has been charged or convicted with murder, rape or sexual abuse of a minor, were they?"
Morton answered, "They were not."
He told lawmakers that, to his knowledge, none had faced child pornography charges.
White House spokesman Jay Carney similarly described them as "low-risk, non-criminal detainees."
A spreadsheet ICE officials prepared listing the detainees includes one person in Texas charged with aggravated kidnapping and sexually assaulting a child, as well as others charged with armed assaults or assaulting police officers. Another immigrant released from Miami had been charged with conspiracy to commit homicide. Two detainees from Boston had been charged with aggravated assault using a weapon. One in Denver had a sexual assault charge. The agency released the spreadsheet to USA TODAY under the Freedom of Information Act.
ICE's records do not indicate whether the detainees were convicted of those crimes or merely charged with them. The agency said it would not release information identifying any of the detainees because doing so would invade their privacy, so it was impossible to examine the details of their cases.
Morton, who resigned last year, told Congress that the more than 2,200 immigrants ICE released included 629 people with criminal records, all of them people who had been charged with misdemeanors "or other criminals whose prior conviction did not pose a violent threat to public safety."
That accounting did not include 144 other detainees whose release ICE records attribute to "special issues." Most often, that meant the detainees were let go because the agency had little chance of deporting them in the near future. The Supreme Court has said the government generally cannot hold immigrants for more than six months if it has no prospect of deporting them. To save money, ICE freed some detainees before the six-month clock ran out.
Homeland Security officials have acknowledged that ICE handled the detainee release badly. The department's inspector general concluded in August that the cost-cutting efforts were so rushed and mismanaged that top officials never informed the White House or then-Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. Nonetheless, its audit concluded that officials acted "appropriately" in selecting which undocumented immigrants should be released.
The former head of ICE's detention operation, Gary Mead, said that if officials provided incorrect information to the public, they did not do so deliberately. Rather, he said, the release happened so quickly that ICE managers in Washington did not know precisely who had been released until after the episode had been reported by the news media.
"We had been asking for some time whether we would have enough money to sustain the level of detention we had, and we didn't get an answer," Mead said. "When we did get an answer, it was that we had to start releasing people today."
Thank you Jesus and Donald Rump don't belong together.
E.A what can you tell me about Jesus Christ so as to assist me in making a choice?
3.4.1 Eagle Averro replied to Tessylo @3.4 a second ago
Thank you Jesus and
E.A what can you tell me about Jesus Christ so as to assist me in making a choice?
E.A LOL another one bites the dust :-)
Why don't you go peddle your jesus nonsense somewhere else?
What does that blithering nonsense mean?
It's hard to understand EA because he's smarter than the rest of us!
Oh yea, that's the ticket!
L.L. There is no contemporary historical record of the Jesus described in the bible; the Jesus story is all hearsay. I hope this information helps you.
'E.A what can you tell me about Jesus Christ so as to assist me in making a choice?'
What the hell is there to tell him about Jesus Christ so as to assist him in making a choice?
Can you answer that question?
Please do so then.
Carry on
E.A Was it NOT You that made a comparison and gave advice?
E.A Thank YOU and the Earth is Flat right, and Hence why do you go around discouraging Folk from looking into the Bible?

Jesus had morals....trump can't even SPELL morals.
E.A Great we are making Progress, now at least you accept that Jesus Christ Existed,
So what Morals of Jesus do you respect and wish that Trump also had?
Jesus' morals are well documented. Feel free to look them up. And as far as I know, no one disputes that Jesus existed, it's his deeds that are in question.
E.A Nice " Rose Colour Glasses " you have ON, they suit you!
E.A BINGO!!
What a Hypocritical Stance THAT is, where they can attack and LIE but they can not be Named, Thank You!
E.A Yes that is a " Normal " process here, the other one is to call their Allies, to also cause a same " event " and hence then get a Ban of a day or two, do that to that member a number of times and then have them not come to NT and hence control all of the seeding and commentary, a process of Power through attrition !
The secular progressive way...... well said. I had to lock a seed some days ago because like our minded were in a turkey shoot. I reopened it hours later, the other side didn’t return.
I dispute that Jesus existed. There is no contemporary historical record of the Jesus described in the bible, it is all hearsay.
In Jesus' travels described in the bible, there are major centers Jesus would have had to either pass through or skirt around that are not even mentioned. The census where everyone was required to return to their home towns never happened. There are many problems with the Jesus story when considered in the light of what we actually know about the time during which Jesus supposedly lived.
So you lock seeds to stifle dissent.
Yup. A tactic of those who know their position is weak.
Pretty sure that the biblical jesus was a conglomerate of the many other messiah figures that came before.
No I locked it to prevent any others on the right along with myself from getting additional skirting or coc from the gunslinging person there that day. Had nothing at all to do with stifling dissent. It worked as none of them got a two day to this point. It was simply a cooling off period until I reopened it and it stayed cool 😎 thereafter.
Except that Jesus is the real One and all the others before and after were fakes.
Yeah, what a wonderful role model - Kim Kartrashian - who got famous for a fuck tape.
Never understood the Kardashian popularity. Famous for being famous.
She's famous for getting corn-holed by rap artists on video.
Way to target one of your celebrity democrats. She has compassion for an elderly African American woman who served 22 years on prison already and tying in with her and other liberals efforts on prison and sentencing reform actually does something about it, and gets her commuted and released. Then the liberals who’d been wanting this for a long time attack her for doing it and want the woman released locked up for life. Are democrats in congress going to abandon sentencing reform now that the speaker of the house and the president are for it? Just like they abandoned 1.8 million daca kids who could have been citizens because it was Trump who offered it?
Blah, blah, blah.... That's why she's famous. All the Kardashians are famous for who they fucked, unlike the false idol in DC worshipped by most thumpers.
You must live in a glass house!
Then kindly lend her some sheets to hang in front of the windows.
Kanye West supports Trump, Kim (Kanye wife) gets an audience with Trump. Trump pardons a convicted drug dealer to show that he supports blacks...OMG, how transparent is that.
Perhaps Trump should actually acknowledge the Central Park Five and their innocence instead of carrying on a 30 year war against wrongly convicted minorities...
Well, Obama lit the White House up in rainbow colors to get those votes, but refused to light it up in blue for the people who have to go out each day and night to deal with lawlessness. Good political move, wouldn't you say? Looking good, don't you think?
Good to see you six. Seems that you haven't changed much, still posting incoherent off topic babble.
Seems to be all he has.
Are you Pot or Kettle?
what was the reason that Obama lit up the White house in support of "gays" again ?
Welcome OSM, thanks for more babble....Exactly what did his or your comment have to do with the content of my comment...NOTHING.
Tell your leader Trump to admit that he was wrong about the Central Park Five, or do you support his stand on it..
Cheers.
President Obama never did any of those things . . . Donald Rump though on the other hand . . .
You mean like Obama ordering a 30,000 troop surge in Afghanistan in 2009?
US President Barack Obama has ordered 30,000 more US troops to Afghanistan but warned America would begin to withdraw its military forces by 2011.
As opposed to Trump who shelved adding any troops...
The White House shelved the deliberations over Afghanistan three weeks ago, after an initial Pentagon proposal to deploy up to 5,000 additional American troops ran into fierce resistance from Mr. Bannon, an ardent nationalist, and other political advisers. In the West Wing, some aides have taken to calling Afghanistan “McMaster’s war.”
Trump replaces H.R. McMaster as national security adviser with John Bolton
Bring on that red wave this November!
duplicate comment (deleted)
What? Are the Republicans going to let communists vote this November. How many do they have running for office? I'm sure Putin will be interested to see who many will win before he runs here with Trump as well.
Hmmm, sorry to bust your bubble but even Fox news reports that Dems have a 9 point lead....and others are saying that gap is growing.
Just think, this time next year we may be witnessing the impeachment AND indictment of Trump.
There can be no indictment of a sitting president. The senate would need 67 votes for removal from office before an indictment can happen. No way a senate trial Would provide the votes for that. All you could get is a house party line vote to impeach. Nothing more.
That's what happens before an indictment...read up. Once he's impeached, he can be charged.
For what, exactly?
No, he can’t. He has to be convicted by the senate and removed from office first, before any indictment can happen.
Good question....
Crimes.
Such as....be specific.
All that would be needed would be for 20 repubs to vote for it. Not likely but certainly possible.
Mueller will let ya know... Patience...Patience... LOL
Let's be honest... Your kind has been calling Hillary a criminal for over 20 years, but never so much as a charge of a crime... Now you want specifics when it comes to trump? That's a joke right? LOL
He doesn't have to be removed from office, just impeached.
Since you are the brain child...show us the rules that says he must be removed from office....
Not like you don't already know but...Obstruction of justice, violation of the emoluments clause, then of course there's his announcement that he would be announcing dirt on Hillary...that was before his son went to the meeting with the Russians, only to be canceled after the meeting didn't produce the dirt.....obvious collusion with the Russians involving the election. To where they had to admit Trump dictated the bogus adoption memo. We can add corruption to the impeachment list.
His playtime with Cohen is tightening around his neck also. The Courts have already spanked him trying to hide documents under Att/client privvy. This has only just begun while he's being sued by Summer Zervos.
"Good question"......Sure C4P....again, ignorance applauding ignorance.
Try again....
Agnew was already indicted while he was in office.....wait until Mueller does his final dance, Trump is going to be swimming neck deep in criminal misconduct. Looks like his pussy might be getting grabbed in the pokey.
What does that have to do with the topic of this seed? Bwah ha ha
From RT and the Washington times? No.
And Duh...casualties did go up...30,000 troops were added.
So, Obama is to blame for the suicide bombers? Did he tell the troops to get close before making sure there was no bomb? Who's to blame for that snafu?
Did you ever disarm a prisoner that had his hands hidden? I didn't without seeing what he had first.
Anybody tell Spiro Agnew that? He was indicted as he was sitting.
You fail.
Yep, we’re going to allow Bernie Sanders and all his commie/socialist friends who are American citizens to vote in November.
Of course we are, they are American citizens.
Your allowed to vote so what is the big deal.
And make Pence President for the rest of the term and eligible to run for two more terms..
What do you mean by my kind?
The DOJ documents for a sitting president from 1973 and 1999 state quite clearly that a President can not be indicted while in office. Clinton faced the music for what he did after he left office. The rules for VP are not the same.
Flynn is taking Pence down with him. Buh-bye thumper.
Running out of comments to flag? Bwah ha ha
Nonsense. General Flynn will likely never be sentence and if so, President Trump should immediately pardon him from this criminal attack by the FBI
Flynn did not lie-the only thing he is guilty of is not having unlimited funds to defend himself and falling on his sword to protect his son from an FBI threat.
The FBI and DOJ are criminal enterprises for the Stalinist US government, seeking how many Americans they can put in prison
“Recent reporting raised questions about the circumstances surrounding Michael Flynn’s guilty plea for making “false statements.”
Apparently, Peter Strzok, the FBI agent who conducted Flynn’s January 2017 interview, believed Flynn had been truthful. Reportedly, the FBI decided to take no action. On March 2, then-FBI director James Comey confirmed this to the House Intelligence Committee.”
As a former FBI agent, I believe the answers lie in an examination of the FBI’s disciplinary system under Mueller. In fact, this obscure Mueller process may well hold the key to understanding why Flynn’s guilty plea may be less a reflection of Flynn’s level of candor than a product of Mueller’s aggressive tactics — particularly, the tactic of using disingenuous allegations of lying to decide judicial matters.”
The Mystery of Michael Flynn’s Guilty Plea
He pleaded guilty to a crime FBI agents said he didn’t commit.
Funny how you do not link these documents...
And what does the constitution say? Oh yeah, it says nothing about whether a sitting president can be charged.
Hmmm, let's see what the favorite judge of the right has to say....Mr. Napolitano, do you have anything to add?
Napolitano: The Department of Justice Says Trump Can Be Indicted
Napolitano...citing the DOJ....now where is your link ??
Nope, he's going down with Trump...Flynn will make that happen.
Bullshit....show where they are not the same rules.
Delusional
I already did. The 1973 and 1999 DOJ briefs about the effects on the separation of powers and on the ability of the Chief Executive to fully do their job if dividing time between the demands of that job and the defense of ones self in a court case. Only the Supreme Court could over turn those opinions and due to the separation of powers issue almost certainly wouldn’t get involved.
Indeed. Even if that were somehow to happen, the next President would be a Republican from California. From a place not friendly with the blue parts of our state.
No, you didn't. I asked you to link the documents...you didn't because you can't.
https://www.justice.gov/file/19351/download https://www.justice.gov/olc/opinion/sitting-president’s-amenability-indictment-and-criminal-prosecution
But I did and you have nothing to say now.
Gee, yeah, excuse me for being out of town for a few days....I did it just to avoid this discussion//S
I read the links....you should have too when you thought you had something, here's an excerpt that shows how wrong you are....Remember, it's YOUR link.
Anyone bringing any indictment against a sitting President will have to go through Supreme Court first. Then find that they have to wait until he leaves office before they can proceed.
Again, you ignore your own links.
I think that the President did the right thing in commuting this woman’s sentence after 22 years served.
Yay! Another confessed convicted felon has joined the already crowded house of perverts and criminals in the halls of the Republicans!
"Hallelujah!"
Praise Jebus!

What exactly are you responding to?
The weak response to a comment of mine some free speech hypocrite probably flagged. The comment you voted up.
I voted it up after it was gone because it was directed at you. As to the rest, I agree that the choking off of conversation does seem rather oppressive here at times.
Although one does have to watch how one says stuff on here, in comparison to another newschat room that I won't bother to name I find the "censorship' aspect here quite minimal at best.
At the non mentioned website soon Every single post I took time and effort to write and post very quickly was "Poofed" and the I was laughed at for even desiring to post my opinion.
So, to me this place is soooo much better.
Then stop flagging comments. Are you that interested to see what happens to your comment counts if your seeds turn into ass licking contests? Post partisan shit, get partisan responses.
For the most part it is better than many other places. It’s those exceptions that make it frustrating at times.
I only flagged one or two the rest were flagged by others or taken down by that moderator after coming to check a flag. I flagged the sweeping generalization you posted in 5.1.2 and it’s ridiculously still there.
If it was Obama or Clinton that commuted her sentence , you would be shoutingfrim the rooftops how kind and compassionate he was for freeing this great grandmother and what a sweetheart she is and how cruel her incarceration was. Since it was Trumps that did I, she has become the female equivalent of Pablo escobar.
no doubt
Trump wanted to execute drug traffickers and he freed this one, I guess when he found out that Oliver North and Ronnie Raygun shipped cocaine into the country by the ton his base wouldn't be happy.
Gary Webb’s lie continues to be repeated by the left even it has been thoroughly debunked
“ Did CIA have any relationship or dealings with Ross, Blandon or Meneses? No information has been found to indicate that any past or present employee of CIA, or anyone acting on behalf of CIA, had any direct or indirect dealing with Ricky Ross, Oscar Danilo Blandon or Juan Norwin Meneses. Additionally, no information has been found to indicate that CIA had any relationship or contact with Ronald J. Lister or David Scott Weekly, the person Lister allegedly claimed was his CIA contact. No information has been found to indicate that any of these individuals was ever employed by CIA, or met by CIA employees or anyone acting on CIA's behalf.
Was the drug trafficking of Ross, Blandon or Meneses linked to CIA or Contra activities? No information has been found to indicate that Ross provided any money to any Contra group at any time, or that he had any contact or connection to the Contras or CIA.
No information has been found to indicate that the drug trafficking activities of Blandon and Meneses were motivated by any commitment to support the Contra cause or Contra activities undertaken by CIA.
Blandon and Meneses claim that they each donated between $3,000 and $40,000 to Contra sympathizers in Los Angeles. No information has been found to substantiate these claims. Moreover, no information has been found to indicate that Meneses or Blandon received any CIA or Contra support for their drug trafficking activities.
Blandon did have a personal relationship with Eden Pastora and provided him with financial assistance in the form of rent-free housing and two vehicles. Much of this assistance was provided to Pastora after he left the Contra movement.”
No, she's still a confessed convicted felon, I would have actually wondered what the fuck he was thinking. Having spent considerable time with Major traffickers, pedophiles, mass murderers and terrorists I think I have a rational opinion and without the need for a wannabe psychic with a hard on for people they don't agree with.
I don't think I mentioned the CIA although they appear to have been involved with the heroin trade out of Viet Nam the cocaine movements sure have some people that are on record as pilots moving the material, into the states and dealers that maintained an enormous supply of cheaper coke admitting on the record the chain of delivery. What other financing vehicle was available at the level needed without any Congressional approval. Makes me wonder if old Ollie is helping finance the NRA in a similar fashion after all he is the expert.
Your accusation stemmed from Webb’s false claim that North was using the CIA to fund the Contras
And you have no fucking clue...The CIA was hip deep in funding the contra gang and Ollie was the point man. They used Noriega as the middle man contact and scheduler, the cargo ships would arrive in Panama with the weapons and money, then carry on to Cartegena and pick up loads of cocaine bound for Miami and Los Angeles.
Reagan, Bush, Ollie and the CIA gave birth to the murderous cartels we know today by making them filthy rich, while Reagan got funding for the "War on Drugs" that he was bringing in to the country.
When Noriega became a liability by saying he would spill the beans on Bush, Ollie and the CIA we invaded Panama and snatched him. That's how Bill Clinton became such good friends with the Bush's because Clinton saved his ass.
Retired Corrections officer and Trainer of police officers.
Nope, just another convicted "Thug" (as the right call black people that aren't in line with the right) that has joined the ranks of the criminals and sexual perverts in the Republican party.
The only reason you are taking that view is because Trump commuted her sentence. If it would have been your "dear leader" and "lord and master, Obama, she would just be a poor pitiful black woman who deserved compassion.
Trying to be a psychic again? Her crimes were inexcusable, we're not talking about a dealer sitting on a corner and selling dime bags. She moved tons of cocaine and had no problem with where they went as long as the money was flowing.
You don't get in to bed with the Colombians and nobody gets hurt.
But keep trying to put words in my mouth...you look really stupid(er) while you're doing it.
'Look at 'em all - the libs would rather thank Jesus than Trump. Tortured souls.'
That makes no damned sense. What is there to thank Rump for?
He is reversing much of the damage done by Obama, the Democrats, and the Establishment Republicans
Hence the term REGRESSIVE, lets do coal, we can generate power, run trains and cars and heat out homes and that is just the reversal we can look forward to. Too bad horses can't be made to eat coal.
Oh yeah....by alienating all our generations old allies and destroying our relations with them for his canoodling with our enemies for monetary benefit to his own pockets. Yeah...Trumps is really 'fixing' our country alright...he's 'fixing' to bring it to its knees and the American people as well. So ou should be very happy with 'Trump The Fixer.' MAGA.... (cough cough...)
Nonsense. It’s about reversing the increased controls over our lives and businesses.
This country by every measure is doing better and has restored critical relationships that Hussein Obama temporarily ruined
Sure everyone's 401k, investments are tanking that is much better, our respect in the world is now a joke, trump couldn't even show up on time for a world summit and was wanting Russia admitted to the stage even thought hey have done nothing to warrant it in fact they are further away from a consensus, we have a leader that doesn't know a truth from a fabrication on a bet. ( Deleted, skirting {SP} )
Really? What relationships is that?
The rest of your bullshit is easy...there's an economic tsunami coming and Trump, like Bush is going to react way too late.
In case you haven't noticed, the auto industry is pulling back, they are swamped with inventory, even Nissan is cutting back in the USA, Ford has all but eliminated a segment of their lines and looks to be headed for trouble. The big 3 are offering 0% apr for 7 years..there's a sign.
The retail sector is gasping it's last breaths and store closings are happening at a much quicker pace.
The healthcare replacement is a long gone memory, He's trying to weasel his way back in to the TPP, he's probably going to get shut out at the G7, and the summit is going to be an embarrassment for us.
So what did he repair again?
Not by a long mile.....only to those who worship him as their new Messiah. I don't think Jesus would be so happy to know that he is now playing second fiddle to Trump the liar, adulterer and selling his country to its enemies.
Ignorance applauding bigotry.
Ignorance begets bigotry and bigotry begets ignorance.
A philosophical palindrome. smile.
In fact Trump has admitted that he wants to take the US back to the 1940s and 1950s, or even the golden years of the robber baron era.
Funny you haven't returned to back up your claims...could it be because you were just blowing wind and cannot even fathom a credible answer? I think so.
So you are pro-choice now? Congrats Larry!
Examples, please..
What I don't understand....I find it rather curious as to where her deep Christian faith was when she was destroying lives for her own monetary gain while criminally dealing drugs all that time? Did she 'see the light' while in prison while associating there with others just like her who are long time hardened criminals? Or was it a sudden play for good publicity to somehow justify her early release by pardon?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Some people do change for the better.
Some do, the overwhelming majority do not. I would not be surprised if she gets re-arrested before his first term ends.
Trump is banking on that fact.
"Some people do change for the better."
Some do.....but, druggies don't. Not ever. I know....I have two of them in my own extended family and they have been in prison on and off for dealing drugs for most of their teen and adult life, dealing both inside and outside of prison.
So chances are that she will be back at it before the ink dries good on her pardon.
Many churches operate prison ministries to affect change in people who are there and to provide them with skills to use when they get out or live better there if there is no way they can get out. These ministries even save people eternally who are on death row.
Which shows you read headlines and get duped easily.
You have zero idea what these ministries do or don't do.
There was no pardon. Just a commutation of her sentence after 22 years served.
If I had a nickle for every time I saw that bullshit...preaching all day and then hanging in the cell trading sex and stories about the little boys they fucked. Fake Muslims of all cultures that would force the ramadan rules on the system and then dive on a ham sandwich. When their sentence was done, they'd be right back at what they were doing before they came in...I've seen so many repeats it used to make me sick to my stomach.
I actually had one that within a week of being conditionally released went and contacted his victim because his victim was now over 18 and he wanted to hook up.
Just like outside, they use religion for control, so was she.
I am willing to bet that if she has a nickle she'll be trying to buy to sell for three times that much.

I'm willing to bet if she gets busted again it will be buried because it will reflect on "Orange Glo"

Yep. Indeed she served 22 years. But, I wonder how many of those she sold drugs to never lived to make it to 22 years old? And if she had that big of an organization before, she knows all the contacts and the ins and outs of starting up again. All she needs is some startup money, and that would be easy enough to get when you know all the insiders. In the world of being behind bars does not mean being out of business. It just means doing it from a different venue with a different clientele. And there are always ready buyers.
If you listen to the liberal media, Donald Trump is a terrible racist and misogynist who hates minorities and women.
He apparently isn’t very good at it, however. On Wednesday, the president officially commuted the sentence of Alice Marie Johnson, an African-American woman who was sentenced to life in prison for a non-violent drug crime.
You might think that liberals, who have made drug legalization and criminal justice reform two of their banner issues, would be elated. You would be wrong.
As Johnson was freed after spending 21 years in prison, many bitter leftists chose not to celebrate her release or acknowledge Trump’s decision, but instead they chose to backhandedly bash the president.
“The View” host Joy Behar led the charge, declaring that the reason Trump had freed the black grandmother was so that he could boost his Twitter following.

Yes, really.
Pointing out the fact that Trump met with Kim Kardashian West, the celebrity wife of Kanye West, before making his decision, Behar decided that her fame, not the extreme sentence for a non-violent elderly woman, was the reason the president commuted the sentence.
“Kim also has 112 million followers on Instagram and 60 million on Twitter. So, you know, if he is thinking of running again, he’s got that nice little constituency over there, so that is not a coincidence. … He has motives,” the television host declared, according to The Daily Caller.
Other liberals were equally ungracious.
Do you think liberals will attack Trump no matter what he does? https://www.westernjournal.com/ct/libs-say-screw-you-to-minorities-attack-trump-for-freeing-elderly-black-woman/
True.
So much for the democrats interest in prison and sentencing reform.
Keep digging....The conservatives may give you lip service and you're obviously sucking it up. Prison reform is a hot button "Right now" Like Trumps healthcare bill was...a long gone failed promise.
And since you added the sentencing part it's very obvious you only read headlines.
Apparently history of your party is not your strong suit, especially if it means you would have to admit they were the problem.
Yeah, those pesky Democrats....More bullshit you've been fed and regurgitated.
If you bother to follow court cases against him you'd come to the same conclusion. It seems just because he's doing what you want him to do, everything is just peachy and ethics be damned.
The right is so obvious with this.
As President he has done nothing that would make him a misogynist or a racist. The topic of the seed though is his commutation of an African American woman’s prison sentence after 22 years. Everything else is off topic to this seed.
Don't need the media to see that trump is all of those things.
"Women? You gotta treat them like shit!!!"
"That face, just look at that face, who could vote for a face like that!!!??" (Trump talking about Carly Fiorina)
I mean, that list is almost endless.. Is trump a misogynist? Oh HELL yes, he is their fricking king got God's sake.
Racist? Um, remember the waffle house shooting? And the brave young black kid that attacked the shooter and disarmed him? Did trump say anything? No. Remember the white guy that stabbed and killed two people in Oregon about a year ago? Did trump condemn it? No. When white people stormed a mosque in Canada and killed a bunch of black Muslims, did trump condemn them? Nope. And then there is this....
Uh gee Alice Johnson, it was the conservative bible beaters that 'legislated' your life term.
As for Trump, he's just playing a game, he doesn't know you, doesn't want to know you and most certainly could care less about you.
Gawd saved you huh?
God can save anyone who wants to be saved.

She promised trump she wouldn't release their porn video until after he was dead.
Alice Johnson Thanks Jesus Christ And President Trump For Sentence Commutation
Two questions: What did Jesus Christ (Peace Be Upon Him) have to do with it?
Two things. One He as her personal Lord and Savior forgave her all her sins and told her to go and sin no more. Second, it’s the headline and in the body of the article that upon her release, she thanked both Jesus and Trump for her new freedom. I hope that helps.
