Rip peanut the squirrel

And a month before leaving office, Joe cements his legacy as President.

Seriously that whole Presidential power of pardoning literally anyone for any crime, was a stupid, disgusting, 1%er abuse of power that never should have existed. It needs to be repealed.
 
As a Brit, I really don't know how (why?) that works. Can the outgoing Prez pardon anyone for anything? How did it happen that he has that power?

There's a lot of presidential privileges. Not unlike the royal 'prerogative of mercy'. We (the US) say we don't want a king, but then we make the prez out to be one anyway. It only applies to FED crimes and not local/state crimes. So, FED drug charges, tax evasion, treason, etc.
Nixon was pardoned by prez Ford. Ford was never elected to office btw. The only prez to serve without being elected.

The US has some crazy ways of doing things...I think we got a lot of that from ya'll. LOL
 
"Whatever happened to; No one is above the law?"

Except for crime families that are so accustomed to committing crimes they forget about any laws. 'Cept when they want to use the system for political purposes.
Both sides have pushed political agendas thru the judicial system, sadly.

If it isn't "catch and release" it's "these laws don't apply to me". F'n politicians.

We the ppl should start lawsuits against such actions and demand that laws actually be followed FOR EVERYONE and not just citizens.

Yes. (Regarding Federal charges.)

It was a Presidential power since the founding of America as an Independent nation. No one paid much attention to it because for most of the past 248 years, elected Presidents didn't abuse it. But in modern times, that has changed, drastically.

In a similar vein, it's why we have an Electoral College. Our Founding Fathers decided the average American was too uneducated to cast a direct vote for who should become President. And yes, there is historical precedence of an election where the winner of the popular vote did not become President because members of the Electoral College voted for his rival. America's Founding Fathers did a lot of things right.... But not everything.
 
That may back fire against him later. If little Hunter is subpeona'd to testify againt his dad down the road he can no longer plead the 5th. Now, "they" cannot prosecute ole Hunter for anything 46 pardened for but...... he can be forced to testify against his dad now without being able to plead the 5th. And he has to be truthful or face perjury, obstruction and contempt charges.

See, ole #46 thought he was being slick. First off he said his son was "singled out" but it was his own DOJ who was charging poor ole Hunter. Now why would Merick Garland do that you ask? So that all of the misdeeds #46 is suspected of would be swept under the table at the expense of the kid who was dumb enough to brag about it.
Second, #46 pardoned the boy for crimes he was suspected of but never charged. So that in turn could possibly lead to the former POTUS sitting in a courtroom someday.

Even folks on his team were shaking their heads and saying "what a maroon". Right now #44 is probably shaking his head and saying "leave it to Joe to f**** up a one car parade" since between 016 and 020 Joe was an ordinary citizen who is liable for his actions during that time period. I wonder if Dr Jill is a little worried what to wear that matches an orange jump suit as the media tries to tell everybody "he never said he won't pardon Hunter".
 
The real problem here is the amount of time the immunity covers.
Basically, everything Hunter has done illegally in the last ten years,
From the Burisma grift, right up to the crack riddled gun debacle.
If I was an American Taxpayer, I would be really pissed at this decision.
 
Joe Biden has not pardoned himself yet of the 20 million or so he profited on in influence pedaling around the globe. The report that came out said he was guilty but he was a well meaning old man with a poor memory so they chose not to prosecute. Doesn't keep a new administration from prosecuting him. He was not found innocent. He hasn't pardoned Jim Biden who was involved or his grandchildren who had the money flowing through their accounts. When the new attorney general, Director of the F.B.I., and Head of the Justice Department get sworn in, those accounts will get frozen, the assets seized, the records made public, and the Bidens sent to prison. Then, we'll look at Burisma and get Adam Schiff and any others involved in that company thrown in jail. That's why he targeted Trump for impeachment. Trump was looking into corruption in the company he was involved in. If this isn't taken care of, the credibility of the U.S. globally will suffer. The Bidens were shaking down nations for money for years and it has burned bridges with both allies and adversaries. The best thing Trump can do for this nation and foreign relations is to throw the Biden family under the bus and prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.

👆 what? A post on topic? What were you thinking?
Oh wait, that's another thread.

The Bidens and shifty Schiff will go to jail right after the Clinton's do.

The goal of Trump and his team is not to jail his political opponents. That's what Tyrants do. No, their goal is to obliterate the system that tolerated the nonsense and did try to jail their political opponents.

Careful about talking about the Clintons going to jail. Statistically, that's the number one cause of death by involuntary suicide in America.

The last time Trump was President, his opponents spent his entire term trying to impeach him and throw him in jail for trying to uncover the dirt they were involved in. He ended up getting shot in the ear and almost assassinated. You can't just turn your back on these people and hope for the best. He has to throw them in jail, or he'll be dead within a year. These people deserve prison. They are still illegally holding January 6th protesters after the Supreme Court said they had to let them go. Fani Willis stole from her constituents and is still going to try to prosecute Trump allies. Judge Merchan's daughter raised tens of millions of dollars for Democrats off the Trump case in New York. That daughter, the judge, and the Democrats who got the money through illegal means need to go to jail. So does Alvin Bragg for not prosecuting Trump's old attorney who stole from him and used him illegally as a witness against him. So does Letitia James who violated Trump's civil rights, went after his bond holder to try to steal all his cash, and permanently destroyed New York's reputation as a place to own a business forever. Then you have the mess with Burisma, Ukraine, and the Bidens. Their influence pedaling has destabilized entire nations. You have to undo the mess they made by throwing corrupt politicians in jail who have rigged the system in their favor and left a trail of victims in their wake.

The politicians that say they will send police to attack ICE officers need to be jailed on day one. They aren't just harboring illegal felons (a 10 year sentence), but are committing assault against a federal officer just by saying that.

You can't have the administration not go after those who still have Trump Derangement Syndrome after Trump was almost jailed, bankrupted, and killed. He'd be looking over his shoulder for the next attack every day until he neutralized the threats. It would be nice if he could avoid all of that going after his enemies, but his enemies will not quit until he's dead or in jail.
 
What should happen and what will happen are miles apart.
True, but Fani Willis has less than 5 days to give evidence about her communications with Jack Smith before she gets held in contempt of court. Those communications will show coordination between her and the D.O.J. to get Trump. Then Jack Smith gets thrown under the bus to avoid Merrick Garland and Biden going to jail. Letitia James is facing disbarment by Elise Stefanik and her case has given the New York Supreme Court a black eye. They aren't going to rule in her favor. Even if Biden pardons everyone, the new people Trump hires can release all the classified information Biden tried to bury about his business dealings and everyone he and his partners were involved with and endless civil cases will haunt the Bidens until they are penniless.
 
my dad would of let me stay in jail . becuase he wants me to be a good human and thats why i never break the law and never been in jail
Heck, it's practically impossible to not end up in jail nowadays. I don't mean for a few months. I mean for a few hours before you get processed out. It is idiotic how many things you can get charged with. Helped out a loved one who was having a rough night after the judge told him to come back at a later date or a warrant would be issued for his arrest. He kept that court date in which the idiotic charges were dismissed.

Now you're cooking with Crisco. 😉
Take away their money and title and they'll soon become like those two guys in Trading Places.
 
I think if Schiff and Fauci are given a pardon, there will be some serious attempts
to either nullify it, or, drag their corrupt butts through a civil prosecution.
Whatever happens, I hope these people and a few others are subjected to the same relentless
badgering as Trump was, the difference being, the inquiries/prosecutions would actually be legit!
