Discussing blanket pardons draws us off of the real issue, the concern that Trump will pervert the criminal justice system & use DOJ as a political tool, which is forcing the Biden administration into these considerations. Don't forget why we're here.

Take shelter!
Every branch of government has been compromised.
America is in free fall.
Privatization of America by big corporations & billionaire elites is the agenda.
Who’s behind all this ?
It sure as shit ain’t Trump.
Is it normal to take 6 years to learn the basics??
Yes, Joe Biden should take a page from the deplorables and pardon whomever is in harm's way. We can't change the election results but we can mitigate the harm caused.
I don't mean later, I mean NOW!

Trump has already perverted the judicial system. Now he gets to do it again.

God ran out of locusts....
These fucks were all he/she/it had left to punish us with....
DO IT JOE !!!! LETS GO DARK BRANDON.
I don't like the idea that school bags like Roger Stone got a pardon or Snoop Dog's friend who was convicted of attempted murder.
Feels like pardons are becoming bullshit already. Maybe always were.
It’s only a matter of time before he will try to dismantle them.
The precedent going forth will be blanket pardons for all around the president forever.
The people that said Dems believe in the rule of law have sounded like 3rd world dictators the last few weeks.
The same people that yell “democracy” just voted for a candidate nobody voted for in any primary and was appointed after billionaire donors ousted the sitting president from the race.
Meanwhile, as far as the way conventions work:
"...if no candidate gets the majority of a party's delegates during the primaries and caucuses, 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒅𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒔 𝒄𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒔𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒏𝒐𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒆"

"Discussing the fire engulfing your house, the concern is it may get hot."
The reality is the house is about to burn down, why minimize it?
Anyone else notice they covered every blathering big Demntia Don even when he wasn’t president but barely covered any of Biden’s speeches in WH on at sites breaking ground due to all his legislation for Chips, Inflation Reduction.
This image infuriates me
wondering how Musk used his “genius” & money to rig the election.
Obama-- both
Clinton-- both
Biden-- Joe, Jill, Hunter
George Soros
All Democrats who were involved in Trump's impeachments
All liberal judges /1
Anyone associated with Planned Parenthood
Anyone associated with a nonprofit that provides assistance to undocumented persons
...
I don't know where this list ends. I also don't know where Trump's thirst for /2
How do you think he has managed to avoid the justice that he so richly deserves?
He is now in a position to finish the job.
Whose interests are more important?
Trump used and will use his pardon power to protect criminals....and also to make money. Next.
1985: Whacks Castellano, investigations ramp up.
1990: Gotti indicted.
1992: Gotti convicted.
2002: Dies of cancer in prison.
Bigger the investigation, longer it takes. Trump: BIGGEST investigation in US history.
Trump knows how to slow everything
I'm really hoping Judge Merchan delays sentencing until 2029. I doubt Trump will be around then, but it will be good to have it hanging over his head.
Ahhh, hate that I did that.
60 votes and a majority in the house.
Force trump into obviously violating the justice system so all Americans can get a clearer view of exactly what they allowed into power. He might even back down.
Whereas if they are pardoned he can't do it anyway & he can claim Dems were lying about him.
this lunatic is not something I’d like to see. I’m glad he pardoned him, considering the threats the new proposed leader of the FBI has made
against Hunter Biden.
Hunter is a convicted criminal and should not have his daddy let him off.
FULL STOP
Trump can pardon himself btw
Resist.
By the way, more people didn't take the time to vote at all. I get there are circumstances where some folks just couldn't. But many millions didn't bother.
We are in crazy, unprecedented times.
We can’t be caught with a banana in a machete fight.
President Biden has to do what he can to protect democracy and our citizens.
I completely understand the concern but we're headed down a path on which there's no return.
Where does it stop?
SCOTUS gave presidents immunity and now presidents give their cronies immunity?
It's wrong what they did to Hunter but this can't be the solution or democracy is done
As a democrat, I want to be on the right side of history.
