There are a lot of countries that have extradition policies that don’t follow them for people they consider citizens.

Take this example with Greece: https://www.ctpublic.org/news/2026-09-30/kosta-diamantis-cts-disgraced-former-deputy-budget-director-sentenced.

Greece has extradition treaties with the US but won’t extradite the scumbag because he is a citizen.

This happens with a lot of people who flee to their home country.

Unless Elon and the said staffers personally give Trump a big pile of cash I doubt he will pardon any of them.

I haven’t drank enough baiju to form an opinion, but I always thought it was more of a class of liquor then anything specific (think whiskey, as opposed to jack Daniels). I had one person tell me it was the moonshine of China. And then I go to a liquor store and see some highly prized bottle of it for 3 or 4 hundred usd or more.
