You Will Be Held Accountable!' Trump Border Official Spars With Dem Congressman Over Whether He Will Need' a Pardon
"Do you think President Ttrump will pardon you and your boss, Kristi Noem, before he leaves office just like he has for insurrectionist and his political allies? Thanedar asked. Do you believe President Trump will pardon you? I'm not going to speak on behalf of President Trump. But I'll tell you, I signed up for this job to protect America, and I'm very proud of the service that I provide, Scott replied. And I don't need a pardon from anybody."
"Well, you better hope so! You better hope you get pardoned because you will be held accountable for the absolute disregard of the law your agencies have shown over the past year, Thanedar said. Your agencies have lost the trust of the American people, with millions taking to the streets to protect (sic) the illegal actions of your agencies. He then noted he had introduced a bill to abolish ICE. ICE must be abolished, Thanedar insisted on Tuesday."
Rep. Shri Thanedar confronted U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing about recent shootings that killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Thanedar accused Scott's agents of absolute disregard for the law and pressed whether Scott expected a pardon from President Trump. Scott replied that he signed up to protect America, was proud of his service, and did not need a pardon. Thanedar warned Scott he should hope for a pardon because he would be held accountable, said agencies lost public trust, announced a bill to abolish ICE, and demanded impeachment for Kristi Noem.
