I got teary eyed watching this man, Jon Ponder, when he was informed Trump was giving him a full pardon. Ponder has helped many ex prisoners turn their lives around and the President attended one of their graduation ceremonies earlier this year, which I highly recommend watching on the White House youtube channel. Inspiring!

This is just the short ceremony today where Ponder and his now best friend, the FBI agent who arrested him, spoke of their friendship.

The emotion in Jon's face when President Trump said he was getting a full pardon was a joy to behold.
That's what I was thinking, too.

Nice bit of news.
Thanks for posting it.

I thought the democrats who claim to care about black people would be happy that this man has reformed and is now free. They must be silent because it's Trump who is doing the good deed. This does not fit their false narratives at all.

Trump only did this because he's racist.

(Liberal talking point. It doesn't have to make sense.)

I strongly condemn this racist action by our racist President.

Would be ironic if it were Kammie that put him behind bars.
