“On the Holmes Front” with Frank Holmes
President Joe Biden outraged the entire country when he pardoned his son, Hunter, for any crimes he may have committed over nearly 11 years—but his most controversial pardon may be on the way.
Biden has flexed his flabby muscles on his way out of office, rolling out a little more of his left-wing agenda each of his last few remaining days in office.
He’s given medals to Hillary Clinton and George Soros while commuting the sentences of murderers and child molesters convicted—and sentenced—to get the death penalty.
The Left wants him to go even further in his lame duck, low-level lawfare.
They want him to grant a pardon to the man who invaded President Donald Trump’s privacy, trampled on his constitutional rights, and leaked Trump’s tax returns to the media.
Charles Littlejohn was a contractor for a well-connected government contractor called Booz Allen Hamilton when he stole Trump’s tax return in 2018 and sent them to the media.
The Fake News media claimed that Trump paid low, or no, taxes…which seemed statistically impossible.
Littlejohn didn’t just target the sitting president of the United States: He also grabbed the personal, private, classified files of Elon Musk, Michael Bloomberg, Jeff Bezos, and countless others—reportedly thousands of tax returns.
It was a political act intended to humiliate the Republican president, the rogue billionaire Musk, and their supporters.
His employer, Booz Allen Hamilton, is the same government contractor that hired another famous leaker: Edward Snowden. That made readers wonder if the group was exploiting its government contracts to carry out somebody’s political agenda.
Whatever his motivation, there was no doubt about Littlejohn’s culpability.
He plead guilty to his crime in October 2023…and, for once, it looked like justice would be served.
Evidently, the liberal judge in the case thought Littlejohn’s crime was so egregious that she slapped him with the absolute maximum sentence allowed by the law.
Last January, federal District Judge Ana Reyes sentenced Littlejohn to five years in prison.
Not only did she sentence Littlejohn to the maximum possible jail term, but she unloaded on him in the courtroom.
By trying to leak information to the media in an election year, Littlejohn had perpetrated “an attack on our constitutional democracy,” said Judge Reyes.
She even committed the greatest blasphemy possible on the Left: She said leaking Trump’s tax returns was a worse crime than the January 6 “insurrection.”
No one can accuse Reyes of political bias: She was appointed a federal judge to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia in 2022 by none other than President Joe Biden to replace the ultra-liberal Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly…and when Congress refused to act on it, Biden nominated Reyes again in January 2023.
When all was said and done, just two Republicans voted for Reyes’ confirmation.
Liberal media outlets celebrated that Reyes became “the first LGBTQ federal judge” on that court…and the “first Latina” on the court…and probably other meaningless “firsts,” too.
But saying anything is worse than January 6—which Democrats have said is worse than Pearl Habor—was too much for the Left…especially if it involves Donald Trump!
So, liberals are throwing a last-ditch, “Hail Mary” pass to the nation’s second Catholic president, asking Biden to spring him out of jail before Trump’s inauguration later this week.
“Democrats are lobbying Biden to pardon the Democrat operative who leaked Trump’s tax returns while working for Democrat-run Booz Allen, which landed plum new IRS contract from Biden despite breach,” revealed investigative reporter Paul Sperry of RealClearInvestigations.com earlier this month.

A website has sprung up asking Americans to send letters and emails demanding Biden pardon the tax-leaking crook.
Even though he’s supposed to stay in prison until mid-2029, “Mr. Littlejohn, who began his sentence on May 1, has already spent ample time behind bars,” says FreeCharlesLittlejohn.com. “Please, President Biden, show Mr. Littlejohn—a selfless defender of tax fairness and democracy—the grace that he deserves by commuting his sentence to time served.”
It’s not just one website: It’s the largest group of far-Left websites and even music magazines in the U.S.
Last March, Slate magazine made its case, “Why Biden Should Pardon the IRS Whistleblower Who Leaked Trump’s Taxes.”
“A Whistleblower Exposed Trump’s Tax Avoidance. Biden Should Pardon Him” said Rolling Stone magazine in May.
Evidently, the rock magazine didn’t like Biden’s (non-)answer, because in December, it ran a more forceful headline.
“Biden Must Free the Man Who Exposed Trump’s Tax Avoidance,” insisted the magazine.
“He leaked Trump’s tax returns. Will Biden protect him?” asked The Intercept.
“Littlejohn released Trump’s taxes. He deserves a pardon,” said one liberal.

Biden has already confirmed he is considering issuing preemptive pardons for suspects who have not yet been charged with a crime but could be once President Donald Trump takes office in just over a week.
Will Biden close his criminal administration with one more act of weaponizing the government against President Donald Trump?
