Sen. Josh Hawley delivered a blistering critique of former Justice Department Pardon Attorney Elizabeth Oyer during a tense Senate hearing, challenging her recommendations on presidential clemency. Hawley questioned Oyer over memos supporting clemency for federal death row inmates, arguing they included some of the nation’s most notorious offenders. Citing high-profile cases, he accused her of disregarding victims and condemned the recommendations as deeply flawed, telling her she was “astoundingly terrible” at her job. The heated exchange highlighted the ongoing national debate over executive clemency, criminal justice policy, and the balance between mercy, accountability, and victims’ rights.
