What a chad move. Deserved.

[Seinfeld]

Was happy to see this, you guys think there is any chance in hell we see Edward Snowden get a pardon?

[DramaKing]

Trump's now pardoning drug dealers? It's unbelievable.

[Omniscient]

There was rumors that Trump was gonna do this. Incredible. Very interesting indeed. In a way it's a slap to the face of the FBI, assume that's the intention.

[Blazin]

I LOVE this. I also wonder if he has BTC stashed away somewhere he can still access.


"@realDonaldTrump

I just called the mother of Ross William Ulbricht to let her know that in honor of her and the Libertarian Movement, which supported me so strongly, it was my pleasure to have just signed a full and unconditional pardon of her son, Ross. The scum that worked to convict him were some of the same lunatics who were involved in the modern day weaponization of government against me. He was given two life sentences, plus 40 years. Ridiculous!"

That's actually crazy. I was talking about this earlier with a coworker of mine. What was he charged for?

Manifesting……

I feel like Ross probably has a nest egg

Saw a funny meme:
When you were deep into crypto and you just held for 11 years

& with a photo of him smiling, walking out of the facility in his prison sweats

[neiqhtworks.]

Did this man not spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on hitmen? I think that's a little much to overlook..

Was never truly "Proven" the case was crooked. FBI agents also stole crypto in the investigation. Ross had a post asking how to connect a website to the tor network, The Alias "Dread Pirate Roberts" was handed off to someone else sometime after launching it. & they used Ross as the fall guy luring him back as they were paying Police for info it was a crazy case. Ross was truly not the mastermind who managed it at the end, he just started the idea. There's numerous videos talking about the whole thing if you want to go down the rabbit hole.






I found this one extremely interesting.

[TheMightyKnighty]

Crazy that this man just releases the guy that created one of the largest dark web marketplaces ever

[Hackers]

In the future the laws of Earth must be followed by all. Kings, queens, dictators, and presidents should bow to the principles & laws of Earth itself, and be citizens like anyone else - even if they claim titles locally. Pardons would not be authorized for single country leaders to use.

Politics are a social construct & distraction. Compliance with the laws of Earth in the future should be mandatory.

Until then...

We have a 34x felon President - all felons should be allowed to go free.
Felonies are presidential qualities now.

For this reason, Ross Ulbricht should be allowed to go free. All other felons should be allowed to roam the streets of the USA too.

I wonder which OG HF account will come back lol
~ Sup Ross!? ~
