BREAKING: Donald Trump has fired the U.S. pardon attorney from the Department of Justice. pic.twitter.com/UHqMRmt3TM

Of course, her sister's a lunatic too.Quote:
One of the key figures involved in former White House occupant Joe Biden's thousands of pardons to violent criminals has been terminated.
Liz Oyer, the head of the Justice Department's pardon office, revealed in a LinkedIn post on Friday that she was ousted after three years in the position.
"I'm sad to share that I was fired today from the job I have poured my heart and soul into for the last three years," Oyer wrote on Linkedin. "I am so proud of the team we built in the Office of the Pardon Attorney, who will carry on our important work."
"I'm very grateful for the many extraordinary people I've had the opportunity to connect with on this journey," she added. "Thank you for your partnership, your support, and your belief in second chances."
Liz Oyer is a dedicated public servant, a brilliant & principled attorney, and my sister. Today she was escorted out of her position as our nation’s pardon attorney—because the chaos is this @WhiteHouse’s point. Immeasurably proud of our former pardon attorney, Elizabeth Oyer. pic.twitter.com/x4brGFapYd

Quote:When Liz Oyer, the first known former public defender to lead the Justice Department's pardon office, arrived in April 2022, she moved in a collection of 22 framed photographs of women serving life sentences. Oyer then commissioned a formerly incarcerated sketch artist to display around 350 copies of his black-and-white profile portraits of fellow inmates he'd originally drawn in the prison yard.
- Liz Oyer revamps clemency review amid structural challenges
- Backlog of 16,000 petitions halved by speeding up denials
The sketches form a grid blanketing the entry hallway of the Northeast Washington office space. The photos hang on the communal wall outside Oyer's private office, showing women in their natural prison environsthe mess hall, library, gym, and nurserywith expressions of contempt, stoicism, and tranquility.
Her team, which has more than doubled to 43 under Oyer's watch, can look up at the faces of those pleading for a second chance. They can read the inmates' handwritten notes displayed below the photos.
"In the beginning I felt as if my life was over," reads one from a woman sentenced at age 16 to 20 years to life, pictured now as a 23-year-old in her prison library. She now has a new belief: "I will be free."
Oyer's staff reviews some 8,000 pending applications for early prison release or overturned convictions. The masses of faceless applications can make it easy to forget their mission is rooted in humanity.
"I always remind my team, 'We are not making widgets,'" Oyer said in a recent interview at her office.
Converting her wing of a drab federal complex into a museum of compassion is one of multiple ways Oyer, 45, has tried maneuvering within strict boundaries to transform the functions and stature of a unit that's felt out of place in a department led primarily by prosecutors. She reports up to a deputy attorney general's office filled with career prosecutors who can reject her suggestions to grant clemency before they reach the White House.

A former public defender, clearly a bleeding heart 'liberal' with no compassion for victims of criminals, just the criminals. An exemplar of Democrat injustice.Quote:When Liz Oyer, the first known former public defender to lead the Justice Department's pardon office, arrived in April 2022, she moved in a collection of 22 framed photographs of women serving life sentences.

These Biden regs would effectively ban all coal plants and new natgas plants by demanding impossible 90% carbon capture.
Reconsidering them is essential to preserving the grid and unleashing electricity.

Good question.SwigAg11 said:
Can the next Dem president just impose all these regulations again? Or, did the recent SCOTUS rulings make enacting new regulations potentially much more difficult? I've been assuming that deregulation would be far easier than new regulations.
Better solution would be for the R's in congress to strip the power of these agencies, but they do nothing.aggiehawg said:Good question.SwigAg11 said:

But with Chevron gone, challenges to new regulations will be easier to win. Government will really have to prove up their claims instead of being deferred to as "the experts."
