    Note all the Democrats in this thread screaming how it’s unfair political persecution and a witch hunt…

    Sweet. Now Trump will pardon him if he thinks he still has some of the gold.

    I am thinking that’s why he freed Dread Pirate Roberts. There are billions in unclaimed BTC wallets going back to his arrest time.

        1. He will if he can get a gold bar out of it.

        2. If Menendez does him a favor or kisses his ass on TV.

        3. Menendezs son, who is in Congress does him a favor.

        Look what happened to Snoop Dogg after Trump pardoned his friend.

      Please. The only difference between this and Congress is that they insider trade, which is legal for them and the rest of the branch.
