    Earlier I made the prediction that Mr. Trump wouldn’t pardon anyone from J6, as they had outran their usefulness to him.

    Well, sadly, I stand corrected.

      Your logic isn’t wrong. It’s just that the truth is they are useful to him. Not only because they’ve already shown they will break the law for him, but also because it’s a signal to everyone else who follows him that they can break the law
