President-elect Trump responded this morning, Christmas Eve, to the horrible pardons issued by Joe Biden of the men on death row who committed heinous crimes.
Here’s what he said: “Joe Biden just commuted the Death Sentence on 37 of the worst killers in our Country. When you hear the acts of each, you won’t believe that he did this. Makes no sense. Relatives and friends are further devastated. They can’t believe this is happening!”
We shared with you yesterday the horrific nature of the crimes of some of these murderers:
Among those receiving the holiday cheer is Thomas Sanders, who in 2010 kidnapped and then shot 12-year-Lexis Roberts four times and cut her throat in Louisiana — days after the girl watched as Sanders murdered her mother on a road trip near the Grand Canyon.
Christmas also came early for Anthony Battle, who murdered an Atlanta prison guard with a hammer in 1994 while serving a life sentence for raping and murdering his wife, a US Marine, in 1987 at Camp Lejeune, NC.
Jorge Avila-Torrez sexually assaulted and stabbed to death two girls — Laura Hobbs, 8, and Krystal Tobias, 9 — who had been riding their bicycles in their neighborhood in a suburb north of Chicago in 2005.
Four years later, he strangled naval officer Amanda Snell, 20, inside her barrack in Arlington, Va.
Iouri Mikhel, another clemency recipient, was convicted of murdering five Russian and Georgian immigrants after kidnapping them for ransom, which in some cases was paid before he killed them anyway.
Kaboni Savage, meanwhile, was convicted of committing or ordering the deaths of 12 people including four children as a Philadelphia drug dealer — while James Roane, Jr. participated in the murder of 11 people as a drug dealer in Richmond, Va.
A woman whose mother, Donna Major, was shot and killed during a bank robbery in South Carolina said Joe Biden never even contacted them, nor were they allowed as victis to meet with him about this potential pardon.
Brendan Council, according to Fox News, “walked into CresCom Bank in Conway, South Carolina, approach Major and speak to her briefly before pulling out a gun and shooting her multiple times. He then leapt over the counter and opened fire on 36-year-old teller Kathryn Skeen, killing her as well.”

Yesterday Tom Cotton called on the incoming Trump DOJ and Congress to investigate these pardons to find out if their binding:
Contracts, wills, and other legal actions are null and void if a party is mentally incompetent, as Joe Biden obviously is. The Congress and the Trump Department of Justice should investigate whether these pardons for depraved murderers are binding.
Who is making these decisions and signing for “Joe Biden”?
He ain’t wrong. But I doubt an attempt to investigate this would go anywhere but it would be epic if it did.
