FOP Who Endorsed Trump Bigly Mad About January 6 Pardons

The Fraternal Order of Police, the largest police union in the U.S. who also endorsed Trump, issued a statement along with the International Association of Chiefs of Police excoriating the pardons of those “convicted of killing or assaulting law enforcement officers.”

The statement tempered their deep disappointment with a dose of both-sidesism, noting President Biden’s commutations, including at least one individual who had killed a police officer.

Axios reports that Trump and his team weren’t sure right up until inauguration week whether to go ahead with the pardons, until the now FOTUS reportedly said “F–k it: Release ’em all,” an adviser close to the decision claimed.
