Jeff Bezos and I were both in the news today. Bezos is making nice with Trump. Kash Patel has said that I am an enemy of the GOP. He owns the Washington Post. I founded Democracy Docket. Both rely on paid subscriptions. Which do you want to support? www.democracydocket.com/member-me/

I understand Donald Trump for what he is a buffoon. Donald Trump wants you to be scared. Rather than being scared, I am proud to be a happy warrior for democracy. We all need to have the courage to not back down. Do not obey!

One year ago, Kash Patel, while sniffling repeatedly as he does in every interview (he just can’t shake that cold) promised to prosecute Hunter for new crimes. Then Trump names him FBI Director. He told you ahead of time he’s going after Hunter. So tired of the pearl clutchers.

Come for the insipid Thrush-Barrett pablum, stay for the simple 2024 minus 2018 math error. These lads both got paid a lot of $$ to pretend to cover this case. They remain unscarred by actual details of the case, apparently. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/02/u...

I hope everyone is paying close attention to how the Hunter Biden pardon is being covered. If you wondered why Trump and his cronies can betray America and commit ceaseless crimes for years without consequences but Democrats can't right obviously partisan wrongs, the current media reaction is why.

MONTHS AFTER Joe said he would not pardon Hunter, Trump won the election & appointed a man as FBI Director who has spent the last 4 years on every right-wing podcast ranting that he was going to go after Hunter. Obsessed with him. Were you aware of that, critics? Not relevant?

Don't be distracted by the chaos. Trump’s 2nd term agenda will be more calculated than his 1st. He's following the playbook of Hungary’s Viktor Orbán to crush democracy, silence dissent & entrench his own power. Those who lived it say there’s a window to act now. Here’s how we fight back. ⬇️

I’m disgusted with how the media is covering Hunter’s pardon. “It’s a stain on President Biden’s legacy”. Are you kidding me?? The fact that he protected his son from the incoming fascist regime makes me love him even more. They were going to crucify him. Way to go Dad. That’s how it’s done!

To those that are freaking out over President Biden pardoning his son, take some time & look at the pardons & sentence commutations that the felon issued. Then, kindly STFU. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Lesson 1: Do Not Obey in Advance— "Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think about what a more repressive government will want and then offer themselves without being asked." We will not obey in advance. 97dfd9-e7.myshopify.com

He actually did this several times at the specific urging of Pete Hegseth. One of the guys admitted to murdering a guy during an interview with Brett Baier

The big reason why Hunter’s pardon is justified in my view is one none of Joe’s critics are talking about - the nomination of Kash Patel as FBI Director, who has pledged hundreds of times to go after the Biden family when Trump takes office. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Among many vital duties, the FBI director leads US government efforts to combat violent crime. The unhinged QAnon movement has fed into various violent crime—and Kash Patel has been a big supporter of QAnon. Sobering details here from @davidcorn.bsky.social 👉 www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Sure, let's shout and scream over whether Joe Biden broke a norm by pardoning his son--yet stand by while a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist & depraved sociopath runs roughshod over our country, including choosing a heinous collection of corrupt, unfit extremists and sycophants for his cabinet.

The woman he “allegedly” raped (at Republican women’s conference) was a conference staffer sent in to drag him away from two other women he was harassing. The women’s conference that invited him to speak (and to which it appears he brought a supply of roofies) had to assign him a minder.

If you’re A-Ok with Trump pardoning war criminals, rapists, traitors, spousal abusers, insurrectionists and business cheats, but outraged by Joe Biden pardoning his formerly drug addicted, now recovering, civilian son, congratulations — you are an idiot, an asshole and you’re in a fucking cult.

Good call. Just changed the use of "loyalist" in an essay publishing in the morning dealing with henchman Kash Patel.

"Way to go, Joe!" Says Rep Jasmine Crockett about the pardon of Hunter Biden. "We have a 34 count convicted felon that's about to walk into the WH. So for anyone who wants to clutch their pearls now, I would say take a look in the mirror."

Trump pardoned Jaime Davidson, convicted for the murder of a Syracuse police officer during a drug-related robbery. He was found guilty of orchestrating the crime. Since his release, Davidson’s been convicted of domestic battery involving the strangulation of his wife in Orlando.

I LOVE the fact that President Biden pardoned his son, Hunter. And I love that it triggers MAGA heavily, too.

In pardoning his son, Biden said: "I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice." May his worries about raw politics and injustice lead him to do more while he's still in power.

My take on the Hunter Biden news is that trump has proposed creating a network of concentration camps to deal with the undocumented millions in our country

I don't think we need to have any more discussions about "norms" and "precedent." What we need to do is prepare to sue the shit out of this administration in a zillion places in an attempt to sabotage it until we can flip Congress in 2026.

Hunter Here’s the reality. No USAtty would have charged this case given the underlying facts. After a 5 year investigation the facts as discovered only made that clear Had his name been Joe Smith the resolution would have been - fundamentally and more fairly - a declination Pardon warranted
