I just saw a headline online that said DJT is considering a pardon for Diddy, among others

I don’t know who else. I didn't click on the article because I don't really want to know. Diddy was convicted of sex crimes so if course, DJT would pardon him. I'm sure he thinks it's no big deal. Or else, the price was right and Diddy has enough money to buy a pardon.

What a lousy system and what lousy people DJT and Diddy are. Money can get weatlhy people out of anything, no matter how atrocious it is and it's not supposed to be that way.

It's disgusting.

Giving some more-popular-than-Milli-Vanilli musicians a few pardons will get him at least a year or two of command performances.

Sean "Diddy" Combs was convicted of two felony counts of violating the federal Mann Act, which criminalizes transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution. He was sentenced in federal court in New York City to 50 months (just over 4 years) in prison.

assaulting, detaining/kidnapping, and extorting... Another fine rich asshole who abuses women and those who he simply "can" Of course, didn't Diddy abuse little boys too? I tuned him out long ago.
