  • Who Can Afford to Not Forgive

    Who Can Afford to Not Forgive
    Jun 4 2025
    Dr. Wilmer Leon joins Jesse Jr. as circulation of the OpEd shows up in various outlets and the Trump Administration responds with a call for investigation into the pardon process in the waning days of the Biden Presidency. The Conclusion: The interest of “the people” is not well-served in the “forgiveness” process as originally intended, especially the interest of Black people who have supported Democratic Presidents, who could have pardoned thousands of citizens who need full restoration. Over 70 million debt-paid people remain in punishment and judgement.

  • The Integrity of ‘The Office,’ Our Civility, and Our Humanity Forward

    The Integrity of ‘The Office,’ Our Civility, and Our Humanity Forward
    Jun 3 2025
    Former Trump Attorney, multi-platformed podcast host, and regular contributor on The Jesse Jackson Jr Show, Michael Cohen Esq. joins Jesse Jr to discuss the op-ed that they wrote with a cardiologist, a Rabbi, and a radio personality - all of whom sought the same pardon that The Biden Family received. The OpEd will publish on Monday in “The Hill,” in light of the recent revelations concerning the mental acuity of President Joe Biden. The Conclusion: Presidential pardons have historically been a source of both relief and controversy because we lack a thorough historical, and public understanding of the language, power and responsibility entrusted to, and expected of “The Office” and the person elected to it in every generation – and what it means for each individual citizen. You don’t know you need it, until you need it.
