https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-announces-pardons-pollution-violators-fixing-their-car/

President Trump on Friday announced pardons for six people whom he said had been wrongfully prosecuted for "fixing their car" in what he called an act of "weaponization and stupidity" by federal prosecutors.

"I AM SETTING THEM ALL FREE, RIGHT NOW!," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.

The White House did not immediately provide a list of the names of the six defendants pardoned, but lawyer Stewart Cables and lobbyist Jeff Daugherty, who are representing five of the six defendants, identified them to CBS News. They said Ryan and Wade Lalone, Matt Geouge, Tim Clancy and Mac Spurlock received presidential pardons.

Daugherty told CBS News, "Thanks to God for putting it on Trump's heart to approve these pardons, and thank God for Donald Trump." He said that Mr. Trump "is the only president who would have taken an interest in these parties, and the reason is he's the only president to face such ferocious weaponization himself."

Daugherty and Cables were informed of the pardons by the White House.

Earlier on Friday, CBS News was the first to report that Mr. Trump planned to pardon defendants who were prosecuted for tampering with air pollution control equipment in vehicles, in violation of the Clean Air Act.

The pardons come after Mr. Trump last fall granted clemency to Troy Lake, a Wyoming mechanic who served seven months in prison for violating federal emissions laws for disabling air pollution-control equipment on diesel engines.

Earlier this year, the Justice Department ordered prosecutors to drop all pending prosecutions and investigations related to so-called aftermarket defeat devices, which are used to disable emission controls.

Six paragraphs into the article to mention what “fixing their car” actually means. CBS has truly fallen.

What do liberals think is a fair punishment for disabling air pollution controls as a mechanic?
>>
>>1522711
Life in prison, but Tim Waltz just pardoned a illegal that raped a child
>>
>>1522711
Why do retarded conservatives always whine about not being allowed to defraud the government?
>>

Mom and pop emissions violations shops are under threat of big government overreach. BRAVO MISTER PRESIDENT! Another big brained which will surely make us wealthier for generations to come

anyone who isn't retarded can tell at a glance that the situation is more nuanced than you think it is, esl shill. and stay on topic why don't you
>>
>>1522725
>Raped a child
>more nuanced than you think
>Trump's case isn't nuanced though, chud
Reminder that this is why Democrats will always lose
>>
>>1522726
well, have fun pretending to be upset, try not to choke on that billionaire semen. trump raped children
>>
>>1522730
You're defending a child being raped, ESL
>>
>>1522732
no, anon, that would be you. get a real job why don't you
>>
>>1522733
ESL shill, answer the question. Why did Tim Waltz pardon a man that raped a child?
>>
>>1522736
i'm not doing your homework for you esl shill. why do you suck billionaire pedophile dick so vehemently? answer me that and maybe i'll explain
>>
The MAGA shills have gotten so bad their whatabouting stories that should be victories for them. From their perspective, at least. It’s sad, but I guess the mess is the point.
>>
>>1522738
>>1522739
>Defending child rapists while falsely calling others pedophiles
ESL Democrat shills everyone. Pack it up retards. You lost this one
>>
>>1522725
>It's (D)ifferent!!!

>>1522742
trump will be a pedophile no matter what irrelevant nonsense you try to spin in your favor, esl shill
>>
>>1522743
>It's only okay when WE do it!!!
>>
>>1522744
the victim of this irrelevant crime said it was okay, actually. that's why this is so funny. i bet none of trumps victims wrote such a letter
>>
>>1522745
>the victim of this irrelevant crime said it was okay, actually.
>10 year old rape victim
>actually she's cool with it
>irrelevant crime
Holy mother fucker... I can't even.
>>
>>1522750
you can play dumb, but the victim literally wrote a letter saying they deserve mercy, so you kind of lose. sorry esl shill
>>
>>1522743
Will it ever be proven in court or will it forever be a conspiracy theory like comet ping pong, Pizzagate, or the Q Anon conspiracy
>>
>>1522754
will you ever get a real job
>>
>>1522754
Proving it in court would likely implicate a lot of powerful people, so probably not.
>>
>>1522751
Yeah because we all know 10 year olds can consent to having sex, right?

And these are the people bitching about Trump?
>>
>>1522759
you're too esl for this conversation, unfortunately. here's a hint - "consent" and "deserves mercy" don't have the same meaning
>>
>>1522760
>It's okay for illegals to rape children because they "deserve mercy"
Democrats are the party of pedophile rapists
>>
>>1522761
the victim literally said it was okay, here's the key part, because her abuser repented. "repented" is the opposite of defaming your rape victim like donald trump would do. hope that helps
>>
>>1522763
So how do you know that all of the other Epstein victims didn't say it was okay?
>>
>>1522763
>the victim literally said it was okay,
That doesn't make it okay, anon.
>>
>>1522763
>Child rape
>repented
Pedophiles and apologists like you deserve to be burned alive
>>
>>1522763
>but waddabout
Can you go one (1) day of your life not thinking about Trump? I'm unironically one of his biggest supporters, been riding with him since he came down the golden elevators and holy shit I barely think about him. You by comparison, cant get him off your mind. Sad!
>>
>>1522697
you read the article? Dumbass.
>>
>>1522772
>Why are you bringing up Trump in a thread about Trump. Obsessed.
>>
>>1522777
You support children being raped by illegal immigrants
>>
>>1522777
The article is about a mechanic being jailed for seven months in a federal prison for disabling climate control features in diesel engines
>>
>>1522711
Probably like 3-5 years for being an asshole
>>
>>1522711
It's a violation of the Federal Clean Air Act, signed by a Republican President. What punishment do you think they should get?
>>
>>1522798
A fine might make sense
$500 per climate control system disabled is a number that comes to mind
>>
>>1522804
Wow, did you hear one of your masters say that while they were dick deep in your mouth?
>>
>>1522804
I think 8 hours of community services planting trees per engine would be better.
>>
I had my catalytic converter stolen by some tweaker and my son-in-law welded straight pipe in it's place to save me a couple thou. I live in a no-inspection state so it won't matter unless I try to sell it.

Find an alternative to fucking platinum and maybe we will have something to discuss.
>>
>>1522821
>$500 is too lenient for just sidestepping epa rules that harness no one
>Pardon child rapist because he felt bad
You support child rape, ESL shill
>>
>esl shill is completely tilted
lmao, just don't kill yourself
we'll miss our lolcow if you leave
>>
>Child rape defender calling others ESL
>>
>>1522828
The people in the story did bigger crimes than allowing individual consumers to falsely pass inspection for a fee. Some of the felony cases involve shops certifying whole fleets of commercial big rigs which would not have passed inspection otherwise.
>>
>>1522835
Whats wrong with just $500 per truck and we call the whole thing quitsies?
Federal laws are more like suggestions anyway
>>
>>1522837
>what's wrong with black smog hanging over major cities every day
You do understand they passed the Clean Air Act in 1970 to prevent this, right?
>>
>>1522838
choke on the smog, its cheaper bribing republicans
>>
>>1522838
>>1522839
You're ESL pedophile child rapist enablers that have no self awareness that people are about to be put in prison for decades while literal child rapists get pardons. Just business as usual for Democrats though
>>
esl shill doesn't get weekends off

Pathetic esl child rapist apologist doing overtime to feed his favela
>>
>>1522842
>>1522847
You never have an argument. You never have anything to add. You just type "god you're esl" or some variant thereof, over, and over, and over, all day every day.

The autistic repitition is one thing, but the fact that you're seemingly here 24/7 is really quite depressing. It's Saturday on the 4th of July you're here wearing out three keys on your keyboard. Lol. LMAO even. Are you just projecting? Are you paid per post here and accuse everyone else here in a "lady doth protest too much" gambit?
>>
>>1522852
Low-effort stuff like that is about as much as MAGA shills deserve.
>>
>>1522852
god you're esl
>>
>>1522804
Five thousand and then we'll talk.
>>
Who cares? Honestly, he's not even white for being pro white genocide. That's probably the only statement that would stump him
>>
Anyone who wants to actively make their vehicle more polluting for zero meaningful benefit should be fucking shot.
>>
>everyone involved in the tesla riots
so no one
esl shill fails again
>>
>>1522892
>Anyone who wants to actively make their vehicle more polluting for zero meaningful benefit
Its worse than that, the cars weren't modified to be less polluting, it was deliberately fucking with the sensors so they'd report as not polluting as much.
Deliberately defrauding the government is fine with Republicunts do it though, thats how miggy piggys are programmed. They'll reflexively bring up a debunked conspiracy theory to use as an excuse to let billionaires continue raping America.
>>
>>1522894
Why lie?
https://www.csis.org/analysis/escalating-attacks-tesla-facilities
Since late January 2025, a series of attacks have targeted Tesla facilities and vehicles across the United States, prompting federal investigations into possible domestic terrorism.

In Loveland, Colorado, a Tesla dealership was targeted in a series of five attacks with graffiti and Molotov cocktails throughout January, February, and March. Two suspects have been arrested for the attacks. On January 20 and February 19, an individual attacked a Tesla dealership in Salem, Oregon, with Molotov cocktails and gunfire. On March 3, seven Tesla charging stations were set on fire at a shopping center outside Boston. On March 6 and 13, a Tesla dealership in Tigard, Oregon, was targeted with gunfire, causing damage to vehicles and the building. On March 7 in North Charleston, South Carolina, a suspect threw Molotov cocktails at a Tesla charging station, accidentally setting himself on fire before being arrested. On March 9, four Cybertrucks were burned in a parking lot in Seattle, Washington. On March 18, two separate incidents occurred. In Las Vegas, a Tesla service center was damaged with gunfire and set ablaze with Molotov cocktails and in Kansas City, Missouri, two Tesla Cybertrucks burned at a Tesla dealership.

This is the second time you said defrauding the government.
If my vehicle isn't working and I take it to a mechanic, I am consenting to them fixing my vehicle, the mechanics are consenting to recieving money in exchange for fixing my vehicle. So where does the "they defrauded the government" come in?

off your pills again, eh esl shill

So you broke your engine, and left the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) on the exhaust?
How stupid are you?
Enjoy your broke ass truck.

he's just larping. he's not american and i doubt he can afford an automobile
>>
>>1522743
He is but so is the guy that Walz pardoned. Why is it ok that Walz pardoned a pedo if you hate the pedo president?
>>
>>1522765
Kek this, if the victim chooses to forgive thats on them. Its still a morally reprehensible and illegal act
>>
>>1522987
So why is it ok when trump does it, esl shill
>>
>>1522892
better fuel economy, better performance, less carbon fouling in the intake, fewer frivolous sensors and various bullshit emissions equipment to fail and brick the car
