It's never too late MAGAs! This is the lone J6er who refused a pardon because, "it would be an insult to the Capital Police". “I lost my critical thinking,” she said, reflecting on her involvement in the riot and the “Stop the Steal” movement. “Now I know it was a cult, and I was in a cult.” Bravo!
