Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani insisted that he was surprised after learning that Trump had pardoned him for crimes related to trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election. (State level convictions.) Something is off. 🤔 Trump only has the ability to pardon FEDERAL convictions.

On X, Ed Martin posted a proclamation that Trump was commuting sentences of 70+ individuals who were linked to the 2020 election (Guiliani, Meadows, etc). He cannot pardon STATE crimes, only federal.

Amending the PCA is an odd way to go about this. The PCA already doesn’t apply to NG in state or title 32 purposes. It applies to NG in title 10 status as reserves, but why limit it to reservists who are NG? When Congress wants to authorize an exception to the PCA, it does so separately. The bill
