You might consider hosting that or backing it up in a country where the rule of law is important and free speech is held in high regard.

Be interesting to add some of the Biden pardons - the kids for cash pardons and a bunch of others were wild.

The "Kids for Cash" scandal involved two Pennsylvania judges, Mark Ciavarella and Michael Conahan, who took kickbacks from the builder of two for-profit juvenile detention centers to send children to these facilities.

They got 17 year sentences and Biden let them out nearly immediately. Dem gov Josh Shapiro I think came out strongly against Biden actions

> it will be nearly impossible to do so in niche languages in this market (Elixir, Erlang, Ruby, Clojure, Scala, Haskell etc).

You can tell by the name of the repo ("taco_pardons") this isn't an act of unbiased journalism.

imoverclocked•7mo ago
The name may be biased but how exactly is the documentation biased?
KevinMS•7mo ago
not even sure where that came from, think it was something in my paste buffer from reddit

> They got 17 year sentences and Biden let them out nearly immediately.

This is grossly incorrect. Conahan was incarcerated in 2011, and sent to home confinement in 2020 (panedemic), and the remainder of his sentence was commuted in 2024. He served 13 years of a 17.5 year sentence.

Ciavarella was not pardoned and is scheduled to be released in 2034.

My recollection is that almost all of them end up having a few shady pardons. As with everything else, it's the scope and breadth that is not at all comparable.
atemerev•7mo ago
Nice. It would be great to document other abuses in detail, particularly from DOJ.
