🚨PARDON ME?! A billionaire seeking a pardon from Trump gave his former personal lawyer Alina Habba a deal worth more than $50 MILLION. Weeks later, Trump pardoned him, per new reporting from the New York Times. Venezuelan billionaire Julio Herrera Velutini had already benefited from an unusually lenient plea deal in a federal bribery case. His daughter donated $3.5 million to a Trump-aligned super PAC. Then his family hired Habba, who was serving as a senior Justice Department adviser, for $10 million a year plus bonuses, guaranteeing her more than $50 million over four years. Habba started the job January 1. Weeks later, Trump granted Herrera a full and unconditional pardon. The company paying Habba has virtually no public profile, and its business remains unclear, according to the Times. Habba denies having anything to do with the pardon. The White House says she played no role. A $3.5 million political donation. A $50 million deal for Trump's former lawyer. And a presidential pardon weeks later. Do the math.
