Really irks me that presidents do this at the end of their terms and not the beginning. That’s 4 extra years these people had to spend in prison while he was hemming and hawing.
Sadly, it's to avoid the political fallout.
"President [Name] under fire after pardoning felons convicted of drug crimes connected to criminal gangs. [Opposition] Party members accuse the White House of making Americans less safe by releasing them onto the streets instead of working harder to lower crime rates."
