President Donald Trump has pardoned a former Republican Las Vegas City Council member convicted last year of using money meant to honor a slain police officer for plastic surgery, rent and her daughter’s wedding - one of several pardons the president has granted to his supporters since the start of his second term in office.​
Michele Fiore - whom outlets and pundits dubbed “Lady Trump” for her gun-toting imagery and vociferous brand of conservatism - was found guilty in October on six counts of wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud. She faced up to 140 years in prison......​
Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford, a Democrat, criticized Trump’s pardon, writing on X: “Donald Trump’s blatant disregard for law enforcement is sickening, and pardoning someone who stole from a police memorial fund is a disgrace.”​
“As Nevada’s top cop, I believe there’s no room for reprieve when it comes to betraying the families of fallen officers,” Ford added.​
The pardon demonstrates a disregard for police officers and their families. Her lawyer pretends she was vindicated, but she wasn't.
I shouldn't be surprised that Trump pardoned this person.

The power of the presidential pardon should be either all together removed, or adhered solely by the requirements of the Pardon Office.
Because it is just being wrongly abused no matter which president.

What's the point of having law, if the president breaks them and pardons his friends, that breaks his kind of laws. And goes after people, that's done nothing wrong. As long as Trump is president, know body should obey laws.
