Trump THROWS his OWN Lawyer UNDER BUS in PARDON SCHEME
Trump Pardon Backfires: Honduran Ex-President’s Prosecution Led by Trump’s Own Appointee
Discover how Donald Trump’s claim of a weaponized prosecution against the Honduran President he pardoned directly collapses, as records show Trump’s own lawyer initiated the case during his first administration.
Short Summary
- Reveal Ironic Inception: The investigation against Juan Orlando Hernandez began under the Trump-led DOJ.
- Identify Key Player: Emil Boove, Trump’s former defense lawyer, served as the lead federal prosecutor in the case.
- Expose Political Flip-Flop: Allies who condemned Boove's departure under Biden now support Trump’s full pardon of Boove’s target.
- Highlight Authoritarian Pattern: The move illustrates a pattern where transactional loyalty supersedes the rule of law, mirroring other global strongmen.
This conversation between Ben Meiselas and Harry Litman details the immediate contradiction arising from Donald Trump pardoning former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez (JOH). The central focus reveals that the prosecution resulting in JOH’s 45-year sentence was led by Emil Boove, an attorney Trump later appointed to a federal appeals court seat. This fundamentally undermines Trump's narrative that the case was a politically motivated "witch hunt" orchestrated by the Biden administration.

Trump is now a prominent member of the global crime syndicate. This is a nightmare
You can bet Trump pardoned Hernandez in return for a huge bribe.
Zero sympathy for anyone who associates themselves with Trump. FAFO!
I see no difference between Jan 6 violent insurrectionist’s and the rogue MAGA supreme court judges
There has not been on pardon this term to an actually innocent person wrongfully imprisoned for years. I am appalled at the abuse
He will throw his own mama under the bus if he hasn't already done so! Just that evil! Thanks Ben and the Meidas Touch Network!
He wonders why nobody wants to defend him.
He is " collecting ", billions of dollars, from all these pardons !!!😮
Another Trump shakedown. The check cleared - the pardon went through!
Follow the money. This pardon wasn't provided for free.
