Democrats accused of corruption are seeking relief from President Trump as he hands out scores of pardons and drops charges against his political allies amid his crusade against the justice system that made him a convicted felon.
Chief among them may be Bob Menendez, who served 18 years as a powerful Democratic senator from blue state New Jersey.
“President Trump was right,” Menendez said Wednesday after he was sentenced to 11 years in prison for accepting lavish bribes in exchange for his political clout. “This process is political, and it’s corrupted to the core. I hope President Trump cleans up the cesspool and restores the integrity to the system.”
Menendez, who was found guilty on all 16 counts he faced, including bribery and acting as a foreign agent of Egypt, is perhaps the first Democrat to publicly align so plainly with Trump’s perception of the U.S. criminal process.
Meanwhile, New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) has cozied up with Trump in recent months as his bribery trial set for April nears.
Adams has not outright said he’s seeking a pardon, instead positing that the mayor of the nation’s largest city should have a good rapport with the president regardless of his political party.
However, Trump has publicly empathized with Adams. In December, he said he would “look at” a pardon for the mayor.
In Chicago, former Democratic alderman Ed Burke, has also turned to Trump for relief.
Prosecutors said the prominent local politician and city’s longest serving alderman, who was convicted of racketeering and bribery, used his clout to win private law business from developers.
Burke once bragged that he’d helped Trump and his investors save millions in property taxes on his luxury downtown hotel. But ahead of his trial, he successfully convinced a judge that any mention of the president could turn jurors against him and should not be allowed.
That ultimately did not spare him a guilty verdict, and online records from DOJ’s Office of the Pardon Attorney now show he asked Trump for a commutation of his two-year prison sentence. The request is pending.
In 2020, Trump commuted the sentence of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D), who was convicted of an array of corruption charges, including attempted extortion of a children’s hospital for campaign contributions and trying to sell former President Obama’s Senate seat after he was elected to the White House in 2008.
Blagojevich was in 2012 sentenced to 14 years in prison, which Trump claimed at the time was a “tremendously powerful, ridiculous sentence.” The former governor later described himself as a “Trump-ocrat.”

Nancy Pelosi is probably best known as the first woman Speaker of the House and a fierce defender of the Democratic Party establishment. Did you know, however, that she’s among the wealthiest and most successful stock traders
Pelosi has been a member of the House of Representatives since 1987, earning a yearly salary of around $174,000 to $223,000. That doesn’t explain how her net worth somehow ballooned to over $120 million
– peaking at $171 million in 2021.
What does explain it?
Somehow, Pelosi has managed to be an infinitely more effective investor than she has been at being a lawmaker. According to reports from Unusual Whales, , Pelosi was the single most successful stock trader in Congress in 2020, raising concerns that she was using insider information only available to Congress to execute stock trades with knowledge unavailable to the public.
, Pelosi was the single most successful stock trader in Congress in 2020, raising concerns that she was using insider information only available to Congress to execute stock trades with knowledge unavailable to the public.
just before the company was sued by eight states and the Department of Justice for monopolistic antitrust practices.
Pelosi is such a prolific stock trader, somehow always perfectly timing her purchases and sales just before the companies rise or fall in value, that a bill introduced that would ban members of Congress from owning or trading stocks was literally named the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act – or the PELOSI Act.
Personally enriching yourself by investing in companies that you then have significant leverage over via your position of power in Congress? Buying stocks in economic sectors that you know Congress is about to announce historic investments in? Selling stocks in companies that you know are about to be investigated for potential wrongdoing? Like… if that’s not grifting, what is? ***********

Joe Manchin, the Democratic Senator from West Virginia, has longstanding, well-known ties to coal business he and his family own in West Virginia. Decades ago, Manchin had set up his company to be the sole coal supplier for a power plant in Grant Town, West Virginia. Then, while in public office, Manchin successfully pushed for the power plant to receive air pollution permits and special tax credits – actions that directly increased the profitability of the power plant, and thus, the coal company he owned. While in office, Manchin successfully pushed the power plant to increase their charging rates, meaning that while West Virginians saw their electricity bills increase, Manchin directly pocketed the difference. He was literally taking money directly from his constituents,
As Senator, Manchin has successfully held up bills that would have increased investments in renewable energy sources while decreasing funding for fossil fuels like coal – a blatant conflict of interest if there ever was one.
This doesn’t even touch the ~$500,000 that Manchin, a ranking member of the Senate Energy Committee, rakes in every year from his investments in Enersystems, a coal mining operation owned by his son,

BREAKING: BRUTAL! Former MAGA Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene pens her most BLISTERING takedown yet of her former cult leader Donald Trump.
This one just hit Republican social media like an atomic bomb...
"Oh he sent me an email, I think I’ll respond," Greene wrote on X, sharing a screenshot of a clickbait fundraising email from Trump that reads "Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor, did I do something wrong?"
Trump often uses these kinds of whiny, manipulative emails to sucker his gullible, aging supporters into believing that he is personally reaching out to them for financial support. This time, he got a hell of a lot more than a few bucks in response...
"So yes, actually you did do something wrong President Trump, let’s first start with your broken campaign promises," wrote Greene.
"You protected your pedophile rapists friends instead of women who were raped when they were just teenage girls and you STILL REFUSE to release the Epstein files."
"You started an unprovoked war with Iran that the vast majority of Americans do NOT support. You killed hundreds of children at a school in Iran and innocent people and are responsible for 21 U.S. service members deaths and 865 wounded. Your stupid war that you claim you have won like 50 times has destroyed our bases in the Middle East and hundreds of billions of dollars worth of military equipment and weapons, while depleting our weapons and ammunitions."
"You are supporting, funding, and aiding genocide in Gaza that has resulted in approximately 22,000 children murdered, thousands of children with amputations, and over 70,000 orphans. And your so called Board of 'Peace' has done nothing to stop war and is planning to oversee the very profitable reconstruction and take over of Gaza. One can only guess who all will get those blood money contracts, the Epstein class and associates."
"And let’s talk about the basics that every single US president is supposed to guarantee to its citizens. Affordable cost of living and affordable fuel in which you have 100% failed to deliver and actually driven inflation and irresponsibly driven the cost of gasoline and diesel to record high levels."
"So did you do something wrong?" she wrote. "Yes in summary, YOU are the snake that you warned us all about in the poem you read over and over. You never cared about putting America first or making America great again. You are the deep state, the Epstein class, and America last."
"And my mistake was supporting you in the first place," she concluded.
Wow. Coming from one of Trump's closest former allies, this hits like a Mack truck. Did she miss anything?
Please and share to make sure that MAGA sees this!

The Canadian government should check the Americans coming into the country and enforce this!
Their country, their rules. Also ends the arguments of favoritism!
We do. It's believed Trump entered the country on a diplomatic passport fearing his personal passport would be denied. 8647
