—
President Donald Trump announced unexpectedly Thursday that he is granting a full pardon to Dinesh D’Souza, the conservative author and filmmaker who pleaded guilty to violating federal campaign finance laws in 2014 after he was indicted earlier that year on charges that he illegally used straw donors to contribute to Republican Senate candidate Wendy Long in New York in 2012.

“Will be giving a Full Pardon to Dinesh D’Souza today. He was treated very unfairly by our government!” Trump tweeted.

Trump, who signed the paperwork formally pardoning D’Souza before announcing it on Twitter, had never met or spoken with D’Souza before this week. He told reporters aboard Air Force One Thursday that he called him for the first time Wednesday night to inform him that he would be pardoning him. The two spoke for nearly three minutes, according to the President.

“He almost had a heart attack,” Trump said.

Cooper is so afraid to let Dinesh finish a sentence 😂

CNN needs to call it a day! They are so far away from reality it's crazy.

Painful listening to Anderson's constant interruption.

[LongRidgeFarmer]

D’Souza is obviously far too intelligent to be caught in Andersons smelly spin.
Way to go Mr. D’Souza!

[lboogie]

2000 mules was a great eye opener.. facts all over that file

[Journeyman-Fixit]

Dinesh you are the best, you were Man enough to admit when you are wrong, you have the heart of John Wayne!
I stand by You!

Anderson Cooper just admitted that he was unaware of Rosie O'Donell's case. She wasn't prosecuted like Dinesh. I thought the law was supposed to treat people the same for similar crimes committed. Cooper just negated that argument without any proper consideration "I didn't know that"

[stevelindsay]

Anderson tried to discredit Dinesh D'Souza AND FAILED AGAIN.

[marknrogers]

Anderson, quit interrupting and let him talk!

[ruaraidh]

I like how Dinesh just keeps his cool and Anderson keeps interrupting him.

[rocl]

Dinesh absolutely smashed Cooper 😂😂😂 look at Cooper thinking he’s intelligent! This clip further convinces me that the media is completely corrupt! I mean, give me a break! Cooper is obviously not being fair

[ianipoo]

Dinesh says "the evidence is in the documents that the judge would not allow us to have"
And Anderson's like "so why didn't you provide this evidence in court?"
😑

[rogersun]

Why would Dinesh even come to CNN for the interview? This is like going to your enemy's house and expecting fair treatment.

[CaptainNimrod]

Dinesh doesn’t have “talking points.” He knows what he’s talking about. He’s not a coward like AOC.

[BANKO]

Anderson seems to be deaf when he is confounded by good argument and evidence.

[Ultra_Fine_Point]

Dinesh is free! AMEN! Keep spreading the good word, my man!

[kittyhume]

Dinesh D' Souza, i love his books and documentary' s 🎈🎈🎈

[MrMentos]

Seems like Anderson lost this argument, Mainly because of the double standard.

[mathewgodfrey]

Dinesh D'souza, first time offense, went to prison.

Rosie O'donnell, multiple offenses of the same crime, got off scott free.
