A George Soros-funded group is actually arguing that President Joe Biden’s outrageous abuse of the clemency power should be used more often as an act of “mercy.”

The Brennan Center for Justice posted a piece on X Jan. 5 praising Biden, and captioned it with one of the article’s hot takes that just reeked of Soros’s soft-on-crime approach to criminal justice all over it. “When it comes to ensuring a fair justice system, we believe the presidential clemency power should be used more frequently as a vital mechanism of mercy,” Brennan Center’s ironically-named “Senior Director” of “Justice” Lauren-Brooke Eisen wrote. The nutty piece, written Dec. 12, boasted that Biden’s moves were “a major step in the right direction and a recognition of the excessively punitive nature of our criminal justice system.” Apparently subjecting mass murderers to capital punishment for slaughtering people is also considered “excessive” and “punitive.” Good grief.

This was written just 11 days before Biden would commute the sentences of “at least five child killers and several mass murderers” just before Christmas, according to the New York Post. These included some of “the nation’s most violent murderers — nine of them found too dangerous to live after butchering fellow inmates.” On a separate note, Biden would also later release 11 Yemeni detainees from Guantanamo Bay prison on Jan. 6, two of which were alleged to be the bodyguards for 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden. Soros funneled $4,950,000 into Brennan’s coffers between 2016 and 2023 alone.
