Slick willy Bill Clinton pardoned Marc Rich
upanddown1132 I I don’t dabble in deflection
Kees Hessels hopefully your family will get out to some day…..
He literally has been talking about that in his interviews. The broken judicial system with people serving ridiculous amounts for non violent crimes. His new goal is going to be fixing the prison system. How can he not after seeing this first hand. 14 year sentence for attempting to sell a senate seat. That’s pretty excessive
How do you thank someone for your freedom? Quid pro quo Mr. Blagojevich, quid pro quo!
“You won’t get the $ unless you fire the prosecutor, you have 6 hours. Don’t believe me? Call Obumaa”. Lmao quid pro quo like that??? Lmao Trump 2020 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
@Chris DiDomenico THE DONALD CAN’T WIN. HE GETS BLAGO (COMMUTATION) AND STEWART (PARDON) OUT OF JAIL AND THEY CRITICIZE HIM. IF THEY WERE REPUBLICANS, DEMON RATS WOULD START ANOTHER IMPEACHMENT.

Blagojevich is a *RUSSIAN* !!! Impeet fohtee fie!!!
Democratic tears quench my thirst!
These ppl never get lower than low, remember, the bottomless pit?? Lol !!!
@Chris DiDomenico lol, !!!
@Ernie Chacon 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸👍😁
Bill Clinton pardoned Marc rich
@Chris DiDomenico lol
BLOTUS is going to want something big for this favor. What is he after?
Your trans bathroom rights.
@Yolanda Creag We can explain it to them, but unfortunately, we can’t understand it for them.
I’m sure the money has already changed hands. trump does no one a favor for free.
You need to start seeing different perspectives and think about things logically without a bias. Everything Trump does doesn’t have to have some ulterior motive like money or power or whatever. Maybe he did this because it was the right thing to do. You aren’t being reasonable if you think otherwise, because no one is like that. He’s getting attacked from both sides of the aisle. As blagojevich said, this wasn’t a good political move since it really didn’t benefit him in any way. Sometimes you have to give people the benefit of the doubt and agree with them on some things they do
@Slauderek Ok. I will try. WHY do you think any one of those pardoned deserved to be??
I don’t think he still going to be a democrat!?
You don’t say
they dont want him I’m quite sure lol
@D-town Drizzy https://youtu.be/3tWJYvB0nRM
Or should I say, he won’t get the votes from Democrats
@Valentin MRV He’s going to turn former democrats into Trumpocrats!
10,000 reasons is the dollar amount for rods homecoming party on a trump property
Nick Wade TRUMP 2020!
you think Rod has money??.😆😆😆
Do you know how little $10,000 is to a billionaire? That’s also the riskiest thing for someone in his position to do
@Slauderek Bloomberg has a net worth of over 500.billion and yet we are supposed to be impressed when he donates 30 billion to charity..chump change he can make back in no time

Birds of a feather.
@Mignon Simpson SAY YOU WILL VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO OR ADMIT YOU ARE A RACIST
@Stan Wilson I’m not a Democrat either and I’m not racist, sexist or homophobic. However, I am an Independent voter who is voting for whomever is in the democratic ticket in November. I’m also voting in my state’s open primary for Bernie. I do not have to declare myself a Democrat to make it known that I despise Trump and how he conducts himself and the affairs of our country. I’d advise that you not speak to people the way that you have. All that type of talk does is push people away from wanting to vote the Democrat.
@Bigly Muffdivr
You: “TRUMP IS THE BEST”
The Educated Public: “Trump is the best at anything corruption-related.”
@B Bodziak lol that’s why he is saying that. He is clearly a trumpper acting like Dem.
4:15 “I think we’re going to seeing a lot of him.” Our latest Fox News star.
Haven’t seen CPL Avenatti on fake news CNN lately 😂😂😂
Chris DiDomenico Oh, you’re so clever I can’t stand it.
Its true that is real Mike that was propped up for President ! He is charged so you don’t even talk about him ! Fake News as always
Why is that a diss that he’s going to be on Fox News. Obviously he’s going to go on news stations that are on his side and support him. Why wouldn’t he?
Slauderek Ain’t no diss. Just a fact. Like you say. The diss, I guess, is that he used his position to extort—the kind of criminality that fits in nicely on Fox News, wouldn’t you say?
Rod Blagojevich probably thinks Trump just gave him back his freedom. He’s about to find out that that couldn’t be further from the truth. He just went from being a prison inmate, to a lifetime of servitude as Trump’s newest brown-nosing sentient suppository. He’s about to become very familiar with Trump’s rear end. Enjoy that Rod…..enjoy. 😆
@BLACK LIVES MAGA Blagojevich’s OWN lawyers aren’t claiming he DIDN’T commit the crimes! HE DID accept bribes for Obama’s old senate seat (corruption). Blagojevich and his lawyer’s defense was/is that that’s how politics works and that the SENTENCING was too harsh. Trump pardoned him which begs the Qs. – Is Trump tough on corruption like he claims to be? As for Blagojevich now blowing whistles – HE ALREADY TRIED THAT IN HIS DEFENCE. All Trump did was pardon a corrupt politician, one that now has the President agreeing that what HE DID wasn’t all that bad.
One more thing, Trump claims the FED is out to get HIM and that they’re all democrats… This case was the FED coming down hard on a democrat, not him.
@beobe99 nice filibuster
More Non Violent Criminals Released The Left Should Rejoice
Not really how it works. Even if he owes Trump a favor which is unreasonable to assume, that’s far better than serving 6 more years in federal prison. Please use some common sense. I’m not saying you’re wrong for hating on Trump, but let’s not exaggerate how bad he is. Many people do the same for Obama saying he’s the worst president and did nothing, which I think is unreasonable to say too. Looking through an unbiased lens can really help shape your opinions without being influenced or letting irrational thoughts affect us. That’s why while I identify as a Republican, I agree with several democratic stances like pro choice, which i for the longest time was opposed to until I saw different perspectives and viewed the issue from an unbiased point of view
Fascinating (but not surprising) that Blagojevich like Trump sees himself as a ‘victim’—-a victim—REALLY?
Bigly Muffdivr you got that right ! He is your master n you are a slave to the devil
@Alexander Cartier let me guess..you blame Trump for that?
Attempting to sell a senate seat got him a 14 year sentence in federal prison. The average rape sentence is 10 years. Is what he did (or tried to do) really worth 14 years? I’d say he is a victim, at least of the broken judicial system in the county
wroongnewgirl.link/5qVrZc_qTcU
Bull on this line of talk…
I don’t think this guy learned any lessons either.
@W and S because look around get from under that liberal rock and just look
W and S only crime was selling Obama seat huh? That’s where your hatred is coming from huh ? Rest was small potatoes huh? Obama’s seat how dare he hang him now huh?
He doesn’t want to admit fault because in his eyes it makes the people that put him away win. 14 year sentence for trying to sell a senate seat? Clearly wasn’t a fair trial in that regard
wroongnewgirl.link/ifyQoFQv3rI
He claimed he wasn’t guilty when it happened, during his impeachment hearing, removal hearing and even at sentencing. All the while, he’s on tape MULTIPLE times vying one against the other for whomever will give him the most money for his “favor”
In three years, drain the swamp has become stock the fraud pond!
Slick Willy pardoned Marc Rich
Slick willy bill Clinton
This guy is still saying that he’s innocent…
I hope the bstrd got Hep C in prison!
@Chris Olsen Same damn difference. A criminal was let out of jail without serving his sentence.
Grim Reefer why he made mistakes spent 8years in jail no second chances for your kind?
@Matthew Clark Second chance, he still thinks he is innocent. They have him on recording trying to sell a senate seat. What are you missing, beside being totally being corrupted. My soul is fine and I know right from wrong. You on the other hand seem to walk above your god, not below him.

“My daughters got his father back”. Poor kids.
got “their” father back.
Do you really think he was doing ‘hard time’?
He’s a criminal. That’s how you end up in jail.
And it wasn’t a victimless crime.
When trusted elected officials continue to rig the system
to keep status quo to their advantage, we all suffer.
Like “your not getting the $ unless you fire the prosecutor looking into my son” that kind of corruption? Or that is ok because it’s a democrat? Lmao lmao. Trump 2020👍🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
It technically was a victimless crime. It doesn’t work that way using all that context like “since he was doing this he wasn’t doing his job and that hurt all of us” like kinda stretching it a bit. You might as well say possession of drugs isnt a victimless crime because the purchase of the drugs funds gangs and that adds crime that affects us all. Think about how long 8 years is, and having to be in prison for it. That’s a rough 8 years. For attempting to sell a senate seat. Didn’t even sell it just showed a lot of interest in it. Pretty excessive to get a 14 year sentence for something like that when the average rape or molestation is a less sentence
Why are you calling him Governor?? He’s a criminal and no longer Governor
Joe…well said! Ignore Biggily..Bigy ..Bigly…whatever….name only spells buffoon to me!Trumpfish ..how is the view from Trump’s colon? Tapeworms…Big Macs…MAGA rubes….all way way up there. Listen MAGA morons..95% of the known universe is laughing at you misanthropes.
Blogsnitch attempts to extort money from Children’s Hospitals. Yeah ..just the kind of worm a Trump voter would objectify.
@John Iverson
YouTube keep deleted my comment, have you ever heard of Omar Lopez Rivera
Just because he’s a criminal doesn’t change his past. Notice how every former President is in most formal cases referred to as “president”. Same goes for governor and mayor and other official titles
🗣️”Hey Susan Collins come check this out!!”
The man served his time..good work President.
