3:05Now PlayingAll Democratic Candidates Should Pledge Full Cooperation With State and Local Prosecutors
Trump will inevitably issue blanket pardons for ICE agents, administration officials like Cash Patel, Kash Patel, Dan Bongino, Kristi Noem, Tom Homan, Stephen Miller, and others involved in constitutional violations and illegal activities. Federal pardons cannot protect these individuals from state charges. District attorneys like Mary Moriarty in Hennepin County are already investigating cases such as the shooting of Reneé Good by Jonathan Ross. Democratic candidates running for Congress in the 2026 midterm elections and the 2028 presidential election need to make a critical campaign promise: using federal government resources to cooperate fully with state and local prosecutors pursuing charges against Trump administration members, ICE agents, and Customs and Border Patrol agents.
Presidential pardons only cover federal offenses, leaving state-level prosecution as a viable path for accountability. Democrats should pledge to provide all federal information to district attorneys and state prosecutors investigating immigration enforcement abuses and constitutional violations. This campaign platform would demonstrate commitment to justice beyond federal limitations, ensuring ICE agents and administration officials face consequences through state courts. Democratic candidates for the House and Senate must prioritize cooperation with local authorities pursuing criminal charges against those who violated laws during Trump's administration. State charges remain the only legal avenue once federal pardons are issued, making this pledge essential for Democrats seeking to hold perpetrators accountable.
