“Trump cannot pardon Peters because she was convicted of state crimes, not federal ones. Some Colorado Republicans have suggested Trump should withhold federal funds from the state until the Democratic governor Jared Polis agrees to pardon Peters, Colorado’s 9News [reports]”.

What horseshit. I hope none of the states bend their knees over federal funding being withheld. People need to see and feel Trump’s actions before anything will ever be done. It’s fucking atrocious that an elected representative of a state would even suggest withholding federal funding to their constituents over an open and closed book court case.
