  • President Donald Trump has pardoned Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road, an underground website for selling drugs.

The article from Click2Houston discusses a hypothetical scenario where former President Donald Trump, in a fictional 2025 setting, issues a pardon to Ross Ulbricht, the founder of the Silk Road website. Ulbricht was convicted on charges related to operating the online black market, which facilitated the sale of illegal drugs and other illicit goods. The narrative explores the political and public reactions to this decision, highlighting the controversy surrounding the pardon due to Ulbricht's crimes and the implications for Trump's legacy. The piece also touches on the broader debate about clemency, the justice system, and the influence of political figures in legal outcomes.
