71 year old Pam Hemphill has been making headlines. She was among the Trump supporters who were convicted for their actions on January 6, 2021 when she entered the Capitol while videotaping.
She pled guilty to one count of demonstrating, picketing or parading in a Capitol building in federal court in 2022 and was sentenced to two months in jail, 3 years of probation, and $500 restitution, serving 60 days in Federal prison in Dublin, California. Her time has been served, and her probation is nearly complete.
Since that time, she has become rich and famous by opposing Trump and supporting the Harris/Walz campaign. Before then, she had gained a bit of fame as a Social Media figure by attending various right wing functions like the Bundy movement. She was somewhat famous in certain circles for being the videographer for various events involving the right.
Now the left has made her even more famous. She is the darling of the left, and there are stories all over the MSM about the former MAGA granny who has seen the light and now hates DJT. Since she announced her change to the other side, she has amassed tens of thousands of dollars in donations. She has been flown all over the nation and received money from a news media eager to portray a MAGA supporter who was there at the J6 event and is willing to say that they were trying to overthrow the government. “Next week CNN is flying me to New York!” she posted on Facebook Aug. 30. She raised so much money that she bought a new Mustang online.
With the issuance of the J6 pardons, her money train is about to be derailed. She is now saying that she will refuse to accept her pardon. Of course she will. The jail sentence and probation have been served, and she is now cashing in on her fame. If she accepts the pardon, that all stops and she will fade back into obscurity, her 15 minutes of fame will be over.
