President Trump will pardon conservative filmmaker and icon Dinesh D’Souza, according to Fox News. Dinesh D’Souza was convicted in 2012 of giving an excessive campaign contribution to Wendy Long, a friend from college, who was running for U.S. Senate.
Will be giving a Full Pardon to Dinesh D’Souza today. He was treated very unfairly by our government!

The conservative filmmaker made films critical of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, creating the appearance that she was singled out on the basis of his opposition to liberals in power. D’Souza is an Indian immigrant who has long espoused conservative viewpoints and is a hero on the right.
Given that Hillary Clinton’s campaign laundered $84 million dollars from massive donors like Calvin Klein, who far exceeded the limits set by campaign finance laws, it seems only fitting that others like D’Souza should be reprieved from the ramifications of these stringent laws that are not equally enforced. D’Souza will get his record cleared, but unfortunately, has no way to get his time and money back from defending himself against the charge.
