This man needs to be removed from office and held legally accountable for all actions that have led to the higher violence, crime rate and lack of consideration for the graft ands coorupion that he and his Senator were/are still behind as well as supporting!

The Gov needs to be removed from office and tried under the Sedition laws. A few years behind bar with other criminals would teach him to better his ways.

A governor has the right to pardon people for local and state crimes, but not to interfere with the legal actions of the Federal government!
