The US president has commuted the sentences of almost 1,500 people, less than two weeks after pardoning his son Hunter. Outgoing US President Joe Biden has commuted the sentences of 1,499 people and pardoned 39 non-violent offenders, the White House announced on Thursday. Earlier this month, he also granted a blanket pardon to his son Hunter, claiming he had been convicted for political reasons. The decision is the largest single-day clemency in US history, according to the statement. The previous record was set by President Barack Obama, who commuted 330 sentences shortly before leaving office in 2017. Biden’s predecessor and successor, Donald Trump, issued 237 executive grants of clemency during his first term, of which nearly 150 were granted in the final days of his presidency, in early 2021.

"thepeoplesvoice.org could be considered guilty of violating the "Shocking content" policy for publishing pictures of dead Palestinian children. That is the only possible violation that could be found. Google's accusation that every page contains "dangerous and derogatory content", "Unreliable and harmful claims", and "Shocking content", is a blatant lie. Therefore one can only conclude, the permanent suspension of the thepeoplesvoice.org's AdSence account is politically and ideologically motivated, and a veiled attempt at censorship." - From the article: The Google Boot
