If Biden had not pardon his son, the GOP would be screaming see we told U he was demented like what dad would leave his son at the mercy of the Trump thugs.
The president has nearly unrestrained power to pardon that is prescribed in the constitution. With SCOTUS’s decision to make anything the president does while executing the presidency nonindictable, Biden is fully within the guidelines of the law.
But NO ONE is above the law. Except, the Bidens, right? Law doesn't apply to them I guess. Hope you feel the same way when Trump pardons the J6 protesters because your post says you will.
I couldn't vote trump if I wanted to (which I wouldn't) as I'm a Brit, but it doesn't take a genius to see this can be used as justification for Trump to pardon whoever the hell he likes.
Awful decision from Biden and yet more erosion of justice, Trump being worse or doing worse doesn't make it ok.
Most of not all served time - some convictions politically motivated. The D.O.J. Was weaponized under Biden. He pardoned Hunter before he was sentenced so he wouldn’t be a convicted felon. There are no comparisons.
Seriously. This was a guy who was confirmably and openly screwed over by the justice system for political reasons. Conflict of Interest be damned, this is *what the pardon power is for*.
This is such a great example of the duopoly's fierce hold on reason. You can't even handle minor criticism of your side, no matter how correct, and immediately resort to insulting the person making a valid criticism. You are exactly the thing you criticize. Blindly loyal to liars.
I mean.... the Democrats have voted in plenty of them too my dude, misogyny and sexual abuse is not an issue you can validly claim in partisan fights here
This is my whole stance. They lost the illusion of moral high ground. That means no complaining about corruption or criminality because the guy they voted for is the poster child of both.
Like seriously. HB was found guilty because he lied on a gun registration form by saying he wasn't a drug user. Keep that in mind, he didn't shoot anyone, he didn't assault anyone, he just lied on paperwork and they want to send him to jail for that? /1
The same 2nd amendment loving folks who don't want any limits on firearms are crying foul because of this technicality. He didn't buy the gun on the black market, didn't steal it, he just lied on a form. /2
And the tax case, well yeah he lied on his taxes. He should have to pay restitution and maybe even a fine but to send him to jail over this BS? Of course Joe Biden pardoned him. A final FU to the MAGA cult who made his and his family's life hell for 4 years
just a reminder, democrats let this happen by having kamala run a pro war, pro police, pro fracking platform.
The democrats are controlled opposition. If they wanted to win they would have run on a progressive platform, anticorporation, antimilitary and defund the police.
Hi random .Your account shows your kindness,so I am writing to you hoping that you will open your heart to the charity work that I do to solve animals.This costs me a lot of money.If you want to contribute even $5,we have a lot of debts that we have to pay off.Only if you can ❤️👋
Every Amerikkkan President, since 1945, using Nuremberg criteria, should have been executed.
Amerikkka remains a terrorist state, no matter who is President.
Not only that, but there is enough evidence, under wraps, that could seriously harm both parties, with the Republicans being far more vulnerable, due to being filled with rapists and pedophiles.
Actually, Trump is on the Epstein documents that have been released. Him and Clinton were Epstein's best friends and on the list of clients. Trump used Epstein's services at his Manhattan offices. There are plenty more Epstein documents under wraps. I bet they never release the rest.
Why it’s so hard to accept for you people that Trump and Harris are the same crap? The same for Obama, Bush, Clinton and a long etc… and still believe you are a democracy… feel sorry for USA
I keep hearing rumors about the 13 year old at child abuse island. I don't understand why some investigative journalism was never done and no law enforcement.
Law Enforcement doesn't care because it's in international waters and the reason journalists don't look into it is because they don't want to get the CIA Excellence in journalism award. Don't know what that is? Google it.
Hate to be pessimistic here but you do realize that he's coming in with majority on House, Senate and Supreme Court, right? These guys will do whatever it takes to gain and maintain power.
Are we all clear that American politics are shady af? It's ridiculous that the President can pardon people. What century is this?
Have you considered separating the judiciary from the executive. So very backwards.
A father will for the most part protect his son or daughter. But do you protect someone who loves dictators and killers of their own people? #47 is such a person and no one should ever forget it.
Not just any kind of rapist. A child rapist. Who probably definitely fucks his own fucking daughter. But I guess the incest part is appealing to THOSE types of voters… 😒
We all know Trump is gonna pardon any family or co people anyways, also the Supreme Court made it clear that Biden can do it as president since it's an official act. I don't give a shit lol.
The meme is wrong. Trump has not been charged nor convicted of rape. George Stephanopoulos made the same claim on his Sunday show and is now facing a huge defamation lawsuit.
You might have a point of Cheeto Benito wasn't a 34 time convicted felon himself. This is like comparing a guy who stole a candy bar to a serial killer as if they are equally bad.
The idea of 'going high' or respecting the rule of law only works when others are buying in.
Paying attention to political norms of the past just means you lose to people who aren't playing by the same rules.
Thanks for posting this. It brings out the absolute dumbest low-effort trolls, because it's speaking their own language. They're drawn to it by some kind of idiot pheromone, and I can just scroll down and fatten my blocklist with people who have nothing to say.
Joe Biden has been lying to the American people for fifty years, so this shouldn't surprise anybody. This pardon isn't even about protecting Hunter, it's about protecting himself. Whatever hole they planned to drag Hunter down was going to expose Joe's decades long corruption.
It’s fucked up that he had to, after Trump and his various nominees are openly stating they will use their powers to persecute anyone and everyone they don’t like.
The plea deal Hunter took and the GOP canned was fair for his crimes, and Biden wouldn’t have pardoned or committed that.
Also voted for Kamala (and Biden). It’s weird how we can’t be critical of Biden. Politicians aren’t kings. They’re supposed to serve us — not just their families.
It seems very simple to me. Republican's used the justice system against Hunter. Since Republican's are proven to be partisan, likely Patel will push that to an obscene limit. That may also happen to us and journalists. New game, new rules. This is totalitarianism.
The Trumpy Trolls will try to come over, WE need to come togther and drown them out dont let them "trigger the libs" for my part i'm gonna go scortched earth on them.
Moderators on Bluesky are not going to allow Trolls to flourish, i am hoping this site allows the free flow of thinking thats been strangled by the now defunct twitter.
Good point even though Trump's charges wasn't rape, it was a civil trial about defamation. Rape would have been in a criminal trial. Fight for the truth, it's more important than politic, which is divisive.
Issue with # Meetoo.. no evidence required even if it was 30 years ago. Tacopina: Carroll “cannot produce any objective evidence to back up her claim because it didn’t happen,” he told jurors. He accused her of “advancing a false claim of rape for money, for political reasons and for status.”
