Summary

Andrew Taake, pardoned by Trump for his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, is now wanted in Texas for a 2016 charge of soliciting a minor.

Despite a state request to hold him, he was released from federal custody.

Authorities are now working to track him down.

Other pardoned Jan. 6 participants have also faced legal trouble, including an Indiana man fatally shot by police, a Florida man arrested on gun charges, and a Kentucky man facing renewed firearms offenses.

    So how many is this now, at least three idiots that were pardoned have already fucked around and found out?

    Maybe someone who’s older than me can chime in, but this is the first time in my life that I can think of anyone receiving a pardon (presidential or otherwise), and then gone on to get killed or arrested while committing another crime (and like within 2 weeks of the pardon). Usually people take the pardon, and lie low for the rest of their lives because they recognized that they dodged a bullet.

    These people are fucking stupid, and their behavior since the pardon has clearly shown that they were the last person to deserve it.

    But I was wondering if there was any precedent for this at all. That is, someone receiving a pardon and then immediately going out and getting caught committing crimes?

    Republicans love showing us clips of Dr Phil interrogating a pedophile before dragging him off to a concentration camp, but they won’t talk about their president freeing pedophiles from prison.

      Who’s that total rapist that changed his name to avoid being known as a rapist? I always think of that guy.

          Whoa buddy slow down, who are we talking about? Brock Turner the rapist or Allen Turner the rapist?

          In any case it’s clear we’re talking about a RAPIST.

          Wait, that dude changed his name?!? So the whole SEO strategy of making sure that people mentioned his crimes every single time they mentioned his name actually worked? Fucking sick…

          On an unrelated note, Steve Huffman is a little pig boy piss baby.
