The man who stole and leaked former President Donald Trump and thousands of other’s tax records has been sentenced to five years in prison.
In October, Charles Littlejohn, 38, pleaded guilty to one count of unauthorized disclosures of income tax returns. According to his plea agreement, he stole Trump’s tax returns along with the tax data of “thousands of the nation’s wealthiest people,” while working for a consulting firm with contracts with the Internal Revenue Service.
Littlejohn leaked the information to two news outlets and deleted the documents from his IRS-assigned laptop before returning it and covered the rest of his digital tracks by deleting places where he initially stored the information.
Judge Ana Reyes highlighted the gravity of the crime, saying multiple times that it amounted to an attack against the US and its legal foundation.
Biden’s not going to pardon someone who broke the law to Biden’s benefit
Corruption is bad, remember?
It’s not corruption when he’s pardoning someone for doing what is right.
Whether he benefits from it or not is completely irrelevant. Just because it does benefit him doesn’t change the fact that what that fellow did was moral and he’s being wrongly punished for it.
Your logic can be used to justify not enforcing the 14th amendment on Trump.
Please explain my logic, because I can’t make heads or tails of how it justifies not applying the law to Trump
