I agree that Trump doesn't care about the fentanyl issue. If he did, he'd be ending the war on drugs.
I would like to point out, Ross Ulbricht was sentenced for running a website, to double life plus 40 years in prison without possibility of parole. It was a bullshit sentence that came at the end of a trial of questionable integrity. The fact that neither Obama or Biden pardoned him is one more embarrassment for the Democrats.
He was not sentenced for running a website, holy shit man. He paid to have people killed and in at least one case believed it happened (it didn't, the hitmen were all scammers or law enforcement)
Let's not paint a rosy picture of Ross Ulbrecht here.
Woah, woah woah. You need to check you facts on this one. He was not sentenced for trying to have people killed. He was publicly accused of murder for hire, but not charged. He was sentenced for running a website and the judge wanted to "make an example"
By all means link me a source that shows he was convicted of murder for hire if you think you can find one, but I can already tell you that you can't.
"Sir I did not bring in tons of cocaine across the border, I only drove a boat". Is essentially your argument.
Now I'm not against what the silk road was initially supposed to be, but this guy took it to a whole new level of fucked.
I think the argument is more, "Sir, I'm the manager at this Walmart and I have no idea what these people were exchanging amongst themselves in the back aisle."
Either way, double life + 40 years is a bullshit sentence for what this is.
Sure, youre the owner of walmart though, with regulations.
And then you call next door to find a hitman to get rid of some of your problems, and get caught trying to murder people with money.
I also like the "questionable integrity" claim because the trial had a fuck load of dead to rights evidence.
Supporters cant claim he didn't do it, because he sure as fuck did, and was working on fleeing the country.
Does this bit not seem questionable?
