Judging by the timeline it sure looks like Mr. Trump sold a pair of pardons in exchange for a $10,000 donation to America First Action PAC.

Rep. Katie Porter says the House Natural Resources Committee is looking into a potential bribery scheme involving Trump administration officials that resulted in pardons for two ranchers convicted of setting fires on public lands.

Porter and Rep. Raúl Grijalva, D-Ariz., said they uncovered a possible “incident of bribery” involving Mike Ingram, an Arizona developer.

They recently requested documents from the U.S. Department of the Interior that may shed a light on whether he coordinated with administration officials to secure pardons of ranchers Dwight and Steven Hammond, a father and son duo convicted in 2012 of purposefully setting fires on public lands.
