Over 150 tribal nations have passed resolutions demanding that I be granted clemency. And of course millions of people just in the United States alone, and multi-millions around the world, have been supporting me.

The United States government can indict you on something, and now you've got to prove your innocence. And that's not the Constitution of the United States.
