The Pardoning of a Term Limits Scofflaw
In this 20 minute podcast:
-The show reports that President Trump pardons former Honduran president Juan Orlando HernĂĄndez, a convicted drug trafficker who previously dismantled his nationâs constitutional term limits.
-It recounts HernĂĄndezâs authoritarian takeover, including packing the Honduran Supreme Court, overturning the ban on consecutive presidential terms, and securing a disputed re-election marred by violence and international condemnation.
-The episode highlights the broader global trend of leaders fighting term limits, comparing Honduras to countries like Russia, China, and Venezuela, and contrasting that with the U.S. perspective where term limits are viewed as a core safeguard for democracy.
-The show celebrates momentum for a U.S. constitutional convention on congressional term limits, noting that 12 statesâincluding Indiana, South Carolina, and South Dakotaâ have formally applied, with major new bipartisan national co-chairs joining the effort.
-USTL President Philip Blumel spotlights organizational updates: a major website revamp, new branding, upcoming promotional videos, and calls for listeners to take legislative action and support the movement!
