Trump on Thursday said he had made Alice Johnson, a Tennessee woman who was serving a life sentence for a drug crime before Trump commuted her sentence, a "pardon czar" to advise him on further acts of clemency.

Drugs of choice are very important to this administration. The vast majority are heavy users. One look at musk with his chainsaw and slurred speech interview disqualifies him for any government roles.
This is certainly good for Alice Johnson, but I would be suspicious about what exactly Trump is going to ask of her or how he intends to exploit her somewhere down the road.
She is a new version of the other duo of the 1st term.
Ms. Johnson, whose case was originally brought to Mr. Trump’s attention by Kim Kardashian, has become a vocal supporter of the president. . . to reach Black voters. 👈 there it is. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/us/politics/trump-pardon-czar.html

Trump has only hired Black men for Sec HUD and now a black woman for pardons. To him black people are either criminals, poor or both.
