Trump pardons House Democrat who spoke out on Biden open borders

President Donald Trump announced Wednesday a “full and unconditional pardon” for Rep. Henry Cuellar, Democrat of Texas, and his wife, Imelda.

“For years, the Biden administration has weaponized the justice system against its political opponents and anyone who disagrees with them. One of the clearest examples of this was when Crooked Joe used the FBI and DOJ to ‘take out’ a member of his own party after well-respected Congressman Henry Cuellar courageously spoke out against open borders and the Biden border ‘disaster,'” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
