7. Some seem to want paroles sped up After it was found that the Alabama Bureau of Pardons and Paroles was not following its own rules, pardons were stopped and then slowed.

This is it — the smoking gun. The Government Accountability Office found that the Trump administration broke the law, technically.

Never has an American president been accused […]
