'No more Mr. Nice guy!' Trump erupts as Dem lawmaker he pardoned sticks with party

President Donald Trump lashed out at Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) on Sunday after learning that the lawmaker – whom he had pardoned this week following bribery and conspiracy charges – still plans to run for re-election as a Democrat, decrying it as “such a lack of loyalty.”

Cuellar, among the most right-wing Democratic lawmakers in Congress, and the only reliably anti-abortion Democrat in the House, was indicted in May of 2024 on charges for bribery, money laundering, acting as a foreign agent and conspiracy.
