President Trump is expected to announce as many as 150 pardons on Tuesday night before midnight.

Among the names being mentioned are Steve Bannon, Joe Exotic and Julian Assange.

Earlier today reports came out that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell threaten President Trump with impeachment if he pardons Julian Assange.
This looks an awful lot like blackmail.

McConnell is interested in protecting the Swamp. That was always his intention.


Tucker Carlson reported on this scandal on Tuesday night.

Tucker Carlson: Mitch McConnell iof Kentucky, the leader of Republicans in the Senate, has sent word over the White House – If you pardon Julian Assange we are much more likely to convict you in an impeachment trial. Well, is it legal to hold that over a president’s head? We’re not lawyers, we don’t know. It’s certainly wrong. But more than that, it tells you everything about their priorities.

"Ms. Chao has no formal affiliation or stake in her family’s shipping business, Foremost Group. But she and her husband, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, have received millions of dollars in gifts from her father, James, who ran the company until last year. And Mr. McConnell’s re-election campaigns have received more than $1 million in contributions from Ms. Chao’s extended family, including from her father and her sister Angela, now Foremost’s chief executive, who were both subjects of the State Department’s ethics question."
