Mike Howell from the oversight project discusses President Trump's pardons tied to election integrity disputes

Mike Howell from the Oversight Project discusses President Trump’s pardons for individuals involved in election integrity disputes with John Solomon, describing them as part of a broader strategy to protect federal rights from state-level prosecutions. Howell explained that these pardons, issued by Trump and his attorney, Ed Martin, seek to assert federal jurisdiction over state actions by invoking the Supremacy Clause. The discussion also examined the wider implications for cooperation between federal and state law enforcement, the possibility of restitution for those who suffered financial harm, and concerns over the weaponization of law enforcement against political opponents. Additionally, Howl addresses the ongoing criminal investigation into alleged document concealment within the FBI and its broader impact on civil liberties and Fourth Amendment protections.
