Chauvin is currently serving time in federal prison, but he was convicted in state court too, where the president has no power to pardon. If Trump *were* to pardon Chauvin, he would immediately start serving his 22 year state sentence. In a state prison. In Minnesota. Ok! - ThreadSky

In a state prison.

In Minnesota.

Elon Musk reposted a video from conservative commentator Ben Shapiro calling for President Donald Trump to pardon the federal conviction of former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin in the killing of George Floyd.

Honestly I hope Trump does this. We need a catalyst for real action. These ppl are quite literally high on their own supply. Try it Donnie. Shapiro is a master strategist. Let’s see what happens.

I think the presumption here is that the Supreme Court would allow him to do that as well

His federal sentence is shorter than his state sentence and he's serving them concurrently, sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Okay? Great idea, braintrust.

They’ll set a record for how fast he gets murdered

You don't know how much better I feel after seeing this.
Thank you.

Musk’s call for Trump to pardon Derek Chauvin is a disgusting reminder of how far we’ve fallen. Billionaires and former presidents think murder is a transaction and justice for Black lives is disposable. They don't have an ounce of humanity between them.

They want to incite violent protests as an excuse to declare martial law. This is bait, don't fall for it. If it does happen Karma will find her way to this piece of 💩.

But at least he'd show his supporters that he continues to be super racist

Didn't someone give Chauvin a few new ventilation holes? If ppl hear he might get out idk if they're gonna let him get that far

jatman.bsky.social•1 day ago

Agree. Let him do it. I hope he then gets shanked again in state prison.

Elon Musk may be the stupidest person alive. It’s really remarkable.

Imagine how mad you’d be if Elon Musk got you moved from a nice cushy federal prison to a cold, drafty, underfunded state prison trying to “help” you.

Even if he did go free he'd be dead by the time the sun set on him
