Trump's Pardon of Social Security Thief Puts the Lie to His Claim that He "Protects Social Security"

from Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

Donald Trump's crime, corruption, abuse of power, and abuse office hits us daily like a firehose. It can be hard to grab hold of and focus on any one corrupt act, which is precisely why he floods the zone with corruption.Glenn takes on a particularly offensive corrupt pardon to a guy who stole money from social security, Medicare and Medicaid. Paul Walczak pleaded guilty to his crimes, was sentenced to prison and ordered to pay $4.4 million in restitution. But after Paul's mother, Elizabeth Betsy Fago attended a one million dollar a plate Mara-a-Lago fundraiser, Trump pardoned her son, shortly before he was to report to prison to begin serving his term. Adding insult to injury, the pardon negated the court's order that Walczak pay restitution for the money he stole from Social Security - the money he stole from the American people. Glenn discusses the ways a singe Trump pardon exposes at least three lies Trump has repeatedly told the American people.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
