Then she pulled out a piece of paper and read me a prepared statement that was typed out on the piece of paper.

And it said essentially that Trump's pardon was not gonna be recognized by the state of Colorado because he didn't have authority to pardon Tina Peters.

And we, I went over to the car.

We waited another about 40 minutes.
