7 in 10 felons are registered Democrats:
You are the party of Felons and proud of it, but you still think you have the high moral ground.

A new study of how criminals vote found that most convicts register Democratic, a key reason in why liberal lawmakers and governors are eager for them to get back into the voting booth after their release.
“Democrats would benefit from additional ex-felon participation,” said the authoritative study in The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science.
The authors, professors from the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford University, found that in some states, felons register Democratic by more than six-to-one. In New York, for example, 61.5 percent of convicts are Democrats, just 9 percent Republican. They also cited a study that found 73 percent of convicts who turn out for presidential elections would vote Democrat.

Obama grants clemency to 231 inmates in one-day record
President Obama on Monday granted clemency to 231 federal inmates, the most in a single day by any president in U.S. history.
Obama commuted the prison sentences of 153 people and pardoned 78 others, a sign he is ramping up his use of clemency power during his final weeks in office.
The president has frequently doled out commutations as his final months in office wane. But he has seldom handed out pardons, which formally forgive prisoners for their crimes and restore certain rights. Commutations simply cut short their sentences.
With Monday’s grants, Obama has more than doubled the number of people he has pardoned as president, according to the White House, a number that now stands at 148. He has now commuted the sentences of 1,176 people, including 395 serving life sentences.
“Today’s acts of clemency — and the mercy he has shown his 1,324 clemency recipients — exemplify his belief that America is a nation of second chances,” White House counsel Neil Eggleston wrote in a blog post.
The announcement was made during the president's holiday vacation in Hawaii.
The grants come as Obama faces pressure from criminal-justice reform advocates to pick up the pace before he leaves office on Jan. 20.
They fear that President-elect Donald Trump, who campaigned as a law-and-order candidate, will scale back or eliminate the use of clemency for large groups of federal inmates.
Eggleston said the president will make more clemency grants before he leaves office.
Obama has granted clemency more times than any U.S. president, part of his effort to free inmates serving lengthy sentences handed down during the government's War on Drugs.
A bipartisan push in Congress to overhaul the nation’s sentencing laws sputtered during Obama’s second term. Thus he has relied on his clemency initiative, which began in 2014, to accomplish his goal of shortening sentences he and others view as draconian.
The president has repeatedly denounced long sentences for nonviolent drug offenders, saying they’ve had a disproportionate affect on communities of color.
The clemency initiative identifies federal prisoners deserving of an early release. Prisoners must be low-level, nonviolent offenders who have served at least a decade of their sentence, demonstrated good behavior and have no significant criminal history or a history of violence.
Eggleston said Obama’s actions only provide a partial fix, writing that “only Congress can achieve the broad reforms needed” to make the criminal-justice system more fair.
But Obama’s critics say he has overstepped his authority and put dangerous criminals back into their communities.

Lol you dipshit he pardoned arpaio, scooter libby and several others for purely political reasons. You just started that with a factually wrong statement that you believe because it feels good -- about like a 5 year old.
Lol sorry, interpreted your post to mean what you wrote? Yes, Biff gives clemency to his friends. I love it when you try to think.
Dem's overwhelmingly have the felon vote. Some Trump supporter who has no other connection to Trump, does something criminal and the narrative is Trump surrounds himself with criminals.
You got to love the TDS crowd and their ability to do mental gymnastics to make everything negative against Trump.

"Some trump supporter" = campaign manager, national security advisor, lawyer... could go on.
Those weren't the people you posted about in this thread.
Are you saying there are no Democrats who have committed white collar or campaign crimes? I guess Democrats are all Snowwhite.
Why don't you come up with some new material? Are you so simple minded you have argue the same thing one thousand times before you can get your point across?
Is it inaccurate? Or are you trying to say it's conservatively biased? Because it's not.
Center left bias (if any) Which I realize to leftists is basically fascism these days. But it's definitely not a Breitbart kind of thing which seems to be what you clearly think it is.
Another source, "left of center"
And these are not cherry picked. They are literally the first google results for "The Hill biased"
Now he's gonna help out Blagoyevich, I tell ya, nothing but the best people. It's good to be a corrupt member of the political class when Biff is in office.
Interesting you ignore A$AP Rocky and other african americans Trump has helped.

Your resistance efforts and pearl clutching is so embarrassing. Join Antifa and go knock some heads preferably in the so called uneducated parts of Oklahoma, that might get your hate our of your system. Make sure you know how to protect yourself if you do. Let us know the results of this therapy for you.
Maybe all that's true, I dunno. Plainly, your introductory comment was false. Biff has no problem with rewarding his friends or perceived allies with clemency.
