Good morning, Mr. President Biden. I’m thinking you are ruining your reputation and your legacy with all those presidential pardons and commutations you’ve recently been granting convicted criminals. Like the pardon you granted your son Hunter and more than 1000 pardons and commutations you’ve recently granted in a hurry to beat the clock that in six days will end your power to grant anybody anything. Your latest grants are being read and spread worldwide, quite possibly destroying your legacy. Among your grants here in Illinois is the commutation you gifted Rita Crundwell, a former comptroller of Dixon, IL, accused of embezzling nearly $50 million. She was convicted, sent to prison, and now recently granted a Biden commutation. And Eric Bloom, former CEO of a company in suburban Northbrook, convicted of bilking investors of half a billion dollars. He was tried, convicted and imprisoned after what’s being described worldwide as the biggest financial fraud case ever tried in Chicago. And, like Rita Crundwell, Eric Bloom’s been granted a Biden commutation. So, what’s going on? My guess is that Joe Biden, good old Uncle Joe, is aiming to distract attention from granting that pardon to his son Hunter. As president he has the power to grant. His problem as President is he has no power to keep his grants a secret.
