American Thinker: So did Martha Stewart refuse President Trump’s pardon of her, on a maliciously prosecuted insider stock trading case, based on her progressive views? Nope, not to anyone’s knowledge.

  1. Demonstrative of how dangerous the media’s fake news really can be. Sort of like the headline about the SCOTUS decision today being NARROW and if you read the article it was 7-2 – more like resounding. Will the morons on the left know this?! No.

  2. Even Snopes says FALSE with no equivocation. They also included the followup tweet by BNW, which is creepy and menacing:

    “BREAKING NEWS: Parody account turning hopes into reality. We fully expect Martha Stewart to turn down Trump pardon after overwhelming public support”

  3. Maliciously prosecuted insider trading case is a bad way to describe what happened to Martha Stewart. There was actually no crime, but Martha lied about it to investigators. She created her own crime by covering up what wasn’t a crime.

  4. Speaking of turning down stuff; if they do ever offer Mr. Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, he should turn it down saying: “You idiots gave the same award to Barak Obama for doing absolutely nothing, so this award is obviously worth nothing”
