Trump Pardons Cuellars in Bribery Case

Former President Donald Trump has pardoned Texas Democratic Representative Henry Cuellar and his wife, Imelda, in a federal bribery and conspiracy case. Trump claimed the justice system was weaponized against them, suggesting political motivations behind the prosecution due to Cuellars criticism of President Bidens immigration policies. The couple had maintained their innocence, and their trial was scheduled for next April. Trumps pardon comes after Cuellars daughters wrote to him in November, drawing a parallel to his own legal battles. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
