President Joe Biden announced Sunday that he pardoned his son Hunter Biden, who was convicted earlier this year of federal gun and tax crimes.

Anyone whining over Hunter Biden getting pardoned and voted for a convicted felon and genocide enabler.

Shut the fuck up.

Yeah, I could not care less if he pardons his son. I don’t think drug crime should exist in the first place. However, I wish the Dems would grow a collective spine and fight for the working class.

It’d also be nice if he’d pardon a bunch of people (mostly Black men) in prison for his crime bill.

it's literal corruption. ignoring procedural rules when doing good stuff for the people is great, ignoring them so you can prove to the world you and your family really are above the law is not.

obviously america is a dying incredibly corrupt empire and no one cares yada yada but still

It's very revealing on when they decide to breaks laws and principles on. Like helping Netanyahu carry out genocide and preventing actual progress.

They could have been doing this the last 4 years and they choose to do it now?

If only that were true. This is a one-off. Dems will always be the, "We need a strong Republican party" party.

They only play dirty against the left.

bingo. ppl who keep saying we need more of this (whether they're saying it politely or angrily) are just fucking deluding themselves - he did this for his son - he doesn't give a shit about, well, you name it and he doesn't give enough of a shit about it to "violate norms". fuck him. seriously.

(Being optimistic) after they rebound in 2026 & win presidency in 2028 cuz Trump shat the bed so hard, I can already HEAR the messaging first thru online hacks, then thru Joy Reid or w/e:

"What this really shows is, the American people are ready for civility and ✨️reaching across the aisle✨️ again"

If only establishment dems would fuck the rules to help the average citizen instead of their family we likely wouldn't be facing another Trump presidency. Unfortunately far too often Democrats fall back on "decorum" and "decency" and lose fucking everything in the process.

Yeah my only issue is that if we live to see another dem trifecta or them having control at all, they'll magically forget this lesson again when it comes time to push the agenda they ran on

The best outcome here was for the piece of shit Garland to actually prosecute a criminal in a timely manner. But he dragged his feet long enough for Trump to take power again. Liberals are the WORST defense against fascism relative to the next closest alternative.

Which is fascism by the way.

Hoping Jim Jordan is banging his head on the table. Considering someone else should be awaiting many court appearances and sentencing. They got their above the law master class all wrapped up.

We just desperately need to stop doing nothing at the risk of being called hypocrites by neonazis, just do whatever fuck you want for the love of god just do something

I think it's about making my head hurt, personally. I think this was engineered to be offensive to me and hurt me. Well done, deep state.
