DC:
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz was the major impetus behind the Thursday pardon of Dinesh D’Souza, the conservative activist tells The Daily Caller.
D’Souza noted that he and his wife had dinner with Cruz approximately a month ago. At the dinner, the senator made clear he would push for a pardon during his conversations with President Donald Trump. D’Souza said he then received a call in recent days from Cruz, who told him Trump was very receptive to the pardon and that action could be coming imminently.
D’Souza took care to note that he did not push for a pardon or join any petitions circulating online because he thought it would be “unseemly” and because he was not a “Trumpster” during the Republican presidential primary campaign. He noted that Cruz was not the only person who pushed Trump for pardon and that other members of the president’s inner circle had done so.
“I did not feel entitled to a pardon” after Trump’s election, he said, adding that “my relief and elation is part of that.”
D’Souza plead guilty in 2014 to making illegal campaign donations to Republican candidate Wendy Long. He has long maintained that he was unfairly targeted by the Obama administration for his political activism against the former president.
The president called D’Souza late Thursday night to tell him of his decision and told him, “You’re a great voice for freedom, a great voice for America, and you got screwed,” D’Souza recounted to TheDC. read more

What a cool President; ” You got Screwed ” He just say’s what it is,how refreshing.
Pretty interesting that his wife is Laura Ingraham.
It’s almost as if TRUMP is righting all of obama’s wrongs.
THANKS BFH!
Edit much better. Spell even gooder n0w!
Unnoticed auto-correct errors keep posts for looking like a note from the Zodiac Killer.
Damn iPad
If Trump can pardon someone why can’t he send Obama to federal prison
BLANKET PARDON OF ALL MINOR CRIMES RESULTING IN REMOVAL OF 2nd AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
