Donald Trump's 'stand back & stand by' battalion is back out on the streets & the police are now worried. Why weren't they worried about it when they endorsed Donald? https://youtu.be/3IoYFFE-LJE
Be wary of paramilitaries. When the men with guns who have always claimed to be against the system start wearing uniforms and marching around with torches and pictures of a Leader, the end is nigh. When the pro-leader paramilitary and the official police and military intermingle, the end has come.
THE PARTY OF LAW ENFORCEMENT...
BULLSHIT...💩💩
TRUMP JUST FREED 1500 CONVICTED FELONS ONTO
OUR STREETS...
MOST OF THEM WHO HAD PREVIOUS ARRESTS RECORDS...
GREAT JOB MORON!!!🤬
No equivalency & a joke to compare Peltier who served 50 yrs(a Native American activist who maintained his innocence) with bunch of thugs who served a few months for attacking the capital, police, & defecating in offices (all on tape )just because they didn’t like the results, shame to compare the 2
Let’s not make this a Biden to orange buffoon comparison. This is not an equal playing field. Trump released 1600 criminals who attempted to overthrow our government, attacked multitudes of police and have vocalized no regret. Donald Trump is the one to be singled out folks…
Exactly - comparing an 80 yo in declining health who was likely innocent and just wants to go home and be in peace to people who were videotaped doing the crimes, have served a yr or less and whose first thought was to go buy guns
Yeah, this. One was someone who got railroaded by the FBI and the other is a bunch of yahoos who actually beat up cops who were defending the lives of our legislators.
Agreed!!! Especially since January 6th was a direct result of Trump’s actions. I do think they should amend the Constitution and remove Presidential pardons. No clue why the Framers even included it.
Just remove it completely. Don't you trust your courts. Oh maybe that's the issue, just a deeply lawless society pretending to be better than the world but actually far worse than most democracies.
It seems like a weird constitutional vestige that is unnecessary and ripe for corruption. Would much prefer judicial reforms so pardons aren’t necessary.
I get it. I'm just saying maybe an overhaul is necessary. Limits in quantity? A pardon window at the end of the term? Something. The current doofus is abusing it left right and center. Clearly. Judges look silly. System looks silly. Criminals learn nothing. Corruption abounds. It's incentivized.
EXACTLY. An 80 yo sick man whom the prosecutor said should not have been prosecuted. Disappointing that the police organizations are playing willfully ignorant about it.
I agree with what @mbowen.bsky.social said - they threw that in there so Drumpf doesn’t lose his mind at them getting mad at him - I am sure they know it isn’t the same but want to kiss up
I believe this is the game plan for how to deal w/trump moving forward, how to get something from this corrupt mob boss. We need to manipulate him which, sadly, requires kissing up while not compromising our values.
As a LEO wife I’ve never been embarrassed of the FOP til now. Endorsing a felon and now that felon has shown us that he could care less about Police safety.
The Fraternal Order of Police endorsed Trump during the campaign.
Now, they’re not happy about Trump’s pardons of the criminals who attacked & killed Capitol police on January 6th.
Hey, F.O.P.! You didn’t support your brothers then. But you supported a felon. This travesty is on you. Fuck you.
Double talk by police… gonna try to blame both sides and trying to justify their ongoing support of tRUmp.. tRUmp pardoned his own joint conspirators who attacked police and our government and let them out; Biden commuted a sentence of death to life in prison- big difference!
I have trouble with them because they are fine with commuting sentences of the few cops that get convicted of murdering the public. And the false equivalence of Trump and Biden.
Hate to be that person but our system has been doing it for years.It's slaps on the wrist for rape and child molestation.White people given shorter sentences if any while POC are made examples of.Women sentenced to life because they killed the person who beat them daily.Reform is long overdue.The
Proof is in the pudding.A criminal is president and our elected officials had every possibility to stop him but said "eh, not my problem".The system isn't working anymore.We are too far past chances at reform.Sad the police just now see this.
Their statement condemns Biden as well as Trump, yet he released 1 guy, Peltier, who already served a long time, while Trump released MANY people who barely served time at all. Perhaps they should have supported the former prosecutor instead, and believed Trump when he said he’d let them off.
Oh well. I mean the guy was campaigning the entire time and saying he was going to pardon them. What part of that didn’t they get? And still they endorsed him. They
Should be thoroughly embarrassed for expecting anything less.
Had to add Biden in there so not to anger Trump. They didn’t mention J6 by name you notice. Gutless statement. They knew plenty of their paying members don’t like the J6 pardons so they had to say something. Purely performative.
They hate Biden and they just absolutely couldn't bear to rightfully take Trump to task without a gratuitous shot at Biden. Also, they're cowards and bothsidesing it protects them from MAGA a bit.
They’re equating Leonard Peltier, an 80 year old dying man receiving a commutation to go on home confinement after serving 50 years for a crime for which his prosecutor no longer believed he should have been convicted, to the hundreds of J6ers, many of whom got slaps on the wrist already.
He he did, but it was 1000 years ago, and they’re not 100% certain that he did it. In fact not even 50%. The January 6 rioters, however, we have them on video. Somewhere convicted by their own video that they took of themselves… They should still be in jail for stupidity.
Leonard Peltier is a member of the American Indian Movement who was convicted of 2 counts of 1st degree murder in the deaths of 2 FBI agents in 1975, shooting on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. His sentence was commuted to indefinite house arrest by Biden because he's 80 & dying.
He’s maintained his innocence for over 50 years. And many who were there don’t believe he did it. There’s no question on the January 6 rioters, however, because we have them all on video.
How DARE they add Leonard, who was FALSELY accused and convicted without evidence, so much so that the fbi advocated his release. The 01/06 crew are thugs & losers, like their leader.
I don’t understand their equivalency of Biden vs Trumps. Trump pardoned convictions of those who assaulted police officers? Biden didn’t pardon people who did that.
Sorry but aren't these the same people who support Trump - fuck em. It has to be this way for people realize they are dumb as shit and should read a history book and understand politics as well as understand there are other people on the planet
So, conflating the commutation of Leonard Peltier with that of January 6th insurrectionists? That's politically expedient for them. Blunts whatever message they were sending.
The cops already let them out Instead of writing a bullshit statement to no one in particular, they should have told their jailers to disobey.Yes the message diminishes the rule of law. That’s the point. Who’s ready to crash the economy with a general strike? Too soon? Y’all can’t even stay off FB.
Just incredibly wrong to both sides this shit. Guess they forgot that their fellow officers were savagely beaten and killed because of Trump’s insurrection. Un- fricking real.
It sucks that trump was even voted in. I think the thing that really ruffles my feathers is how many 911's voted for him, knowing full well this is what he said he was going to do.
Peltier had served almost 50 years of his time and his sentence was commuted, not pardoned. He will spend his remaining years under house arrest. Apples to oranges, the J6 participants should obviously not have been pardoned.
Correction: President Biden did not pardon or commute any J6 traitors. Next election, if there is one, maybe consider voting for someone other than a 34 count convicted felon.
Biden didn’t release people who assaulted cops. The Fraternal Order of Police is lying. But, we should expect nothing less from them because they ARE the Oath Keepers , the Proud Boyz and the KKK. Just hang up on them when they call begging for money for dead cops. They don’t deserve it!
How do they figure that Biden should be included in this? I really want to know. They are so full of sh**. Trump just released terrorists—traitors who tried to overthrow our government. We all watched in horror as they attacked police and tried to murder our elected officials. Shame on them.
Biden commuted Leonard Peltier's life sentence for killing an FBI agent. That's how.
I think putting a sick, 80-year-old man on house arrest instead of keeping him locked in prison is something LEOs shouldn't object to. He can't go anywhere. He's still technically in custody. It's compassionate.
Nah. If they were told to break down doors and drag immigrant children out by their hair, they would. If they were told to arrest a pregnant woman trying to get an abortion, they would not hesitate. They can FAFO like the rest of them.
The pricks both sided it. To them it's a push. Typical. There's a reason why the police unions hardly ever show solidarity with other public unions. More whataboutism
Because Leonard Peltier is comparable to the MAGA attack on our Capitol.
Got one thing right. Got a grudge against cops? Or just want to get really violent? Come on down to wherever Trump calls you and go nuts! Even killing protesting fellow citizens or cops is not out of bounds.
For fucks sake #FraternalOrderOfPolice
The people Trump pardoned are 1,600 MAGA Republican Terrorists who attacked & tried to kill Police Officers. They are the troops in Trump’s Jan 6th MAGA Terrorist Attack on our Capitol & your members. Why are you lying about bothsideism?
Important to share, both on BlueSky & also with others we know who don't follow any political news at all.
Don't think I'm naive enough to think we can change the minds of Faux-watching cult members, but this group below? Drip, drip; I think we can wake up a few who have no idea what's going on.
What the Pig Union is lying about the nature of Biden's actions to cushion the blow of having to criticize Trump's actual actions? Go figure swine making up evidence. TBH. Fuck the police union and fuck their members one and all. I literally don't care how the oppressors' goon squads feels.
I truly think they're about a year too late, they had their chance to speak out and they backed trump. Every law enforcement officer that gets assaulted or killed is on them. They deserve no respect.
Right Biden and Trump are the same - garbage but not shocking from an organization that supported Trump - the criminal- disgusting. Not one should be working for we the people
The fact they are bemoaning Biden letting non violent people out compared to cop beaters and killers that tried to overthrow a government is beyond gross. Their faux display of caring anything about the law is complete BS after endorsing the Criminal Cabal.
They’re complaining that the Felon pardoned the scumbags who beat police officers AFTER they supported him?? AFTER seeing what he did on J6?? Sorry. Zero sympathy. I’ll reserve that for the Capitol police officers who stood in the breach.
This is political ammunition against Trump and maga reps that we need to use everyday for the next 4 years, including during primaries ‼️ Be strategic and ruthless if we have to‼️🇺🇸
Be sure to include that the FOP ENDORSED Trump for President and ignored his campaign promise to do exactly what he has now done.
He told us everything. Project 2025 filled in the details. And the cops voted for him anyway. Skin color over anything else.
Are these police organizations seriously comparing any of the Biden Commutations/Pardons with what trump just did pardoning more than 1500 people who desecrated the Capitol, injured 144 officers, caused six or more deaths & threatened everyone inside. They are just giving trump cover. Shameful!
Do Americans even realise how bizarre it is for an elected leader to come into office and begin pardoning violent criminals. This doesn’t happen anywhere. I mean just giving a politician that power is the definition of corruption. The system was built for it. One seriously fked up country.
I don't know why anyone expected the response to be in good faith.
The false equivalency between the Leonard Peltier commutation to house arrest and the total pardon to the 1/6 terrorists proves they don't really believe what they wrote.
F* the FOP.
This statement is disgusting. Having said that, pardon power is the stupidest thing in the Constitution and it needs to go away as fast as humanly possible, which probably means 500 years from now.
Interesting they feel the need to equate the commutation of a single individual whose conviction has been disputed, who is 80 in poor health, and who served 50 years with the pardon of hundreds of traitors who to buy guns upon release. Come on.
I'm sorry but I have to agree. Both siding this thing is appaling. Biden only commuted death sentence detainees to whole of life sentences - he never allowed for early release of any killer or violent offender (of law enforcement officers or others).
Late on this statement. So when progressives protest it should be OK for them to beat the shit out of police. That was the message with these pardons. Screw the police as long as you do it in service to the Mango Mussolini.
I don't want to hear it. They endorsed him in 2016 2020 and 2024. They knew what they were going to get so I do not feel sorry for them. Unlike felon 47 I do support the police I do back the blue.
They supported Trump......a convicted felon. Now they're upset because he pardoned thousands of violent criminals and they're coming home to commit more crimes.
Please, this bothsidesism bullshit from both groups just shows they're not serious about this moment. Trump pardoned well over 1,000 criminals who assaulted your fellow officers. And the best you can do is also include Biden in your weak ass statement? Fucking pathetic.
In Canada we were hearing that many law enforcement organizations and unions were supporting the 🍊. It boggled my mind tbh. Regretfully. It’s too late.
This is insane. These false equivalencies are the reason Trump never faces real questions. This stuff is all along a continuum. There is no black and white. What Trump did is way worse and if the police don’t see that then they’re the problem. I lost sympathy for them with this letter.
Leonard is 80 and hasn’t been released yet, has been in jail for 50 years. When he leaves prison he is under house arrest to die. The J6 racist fucks are fuck faces little ants. Everyday we are closer to his obituary!

He already released the criminals

No passes.
Criticizing both President Biden and President Felon.
Biden commuted death sentences to life imprisonment, essentially a slower death sentence.
Felon pardoned hundreds of J6 insurrectionists who assaulted law enforcement officers who were released from prison.
It's complete false equivalence to compare the Biden pardons to Trump's.

Trump told the world that he was going to do this but the various police organizations supported him anyway.
So, enjoy the "Find Out" phase there guys. OH - and "Fuck you very much, FOP".
FOP, IACP, and police unions supported and/or endorsed Trump in 2016,2020, and 2024. https://fop.net/2024/09/fop-endorses-trump/
Trump pardoned cop killers & other dangerous felons.
The police associations are trying to both-sides their response rather than taking responsibility for their endorsement of the face-eating leopards.
The nightmare we thought we knew is so much worse now- we understood what was coming but holy hell, this is an avalanche of evil
FUCK.
He told us everything. Project 2025 filled in the details. And the cops voted for him anyway. Skin color over anything else.
Of course they got thrown under the bus, he doesn’t need them anymore.

I’m trying to find an example of a pardon, issued by Biden, of a person who was convicted of assault or killing of a law enforcement officer.
They supported Trump......a convicted felon. Now they're upset because he pardoned thousands of violent criminals and they're coming home to commit more crimes.
