Biden didn't turn out to be trash.
He has been for many years.
Been in Washington since 1973
Had it down to an art.

IF we look beyond the Covid issue.
He was pardoned to prevent never ending legal silliness. Like both parties have been doing for years.

Biden the man isn't trash. It's what he was made to do, or thought he had to do as president that's trash.

This tit for tat lawfare on both sides against their political opponents, and preemptive pardons then Mass releases is making a mockery of the justice system.
For example the mass release of January 6th prisoners. I have no doubt that most of them were simply innocent political prisoners. But in a group that large there was almost certainly a few bad apples who likely deserved their sentences.
Both sides are destroying the credibility of the justice system.

Seems to be a race to the bottom.

How much time money and resources have been wasted by both sides, resources which could have otherwise being directed at Justice for actual criminals and actual victims.

I do believe that 16 of the J6ers aren’t eligible for pardon.

I read somewhere that the rule of law does not allow for pardoning people pre-emptively. That is to say you need to be criminally charged to be pardoned. So, I would say those pre-emptive pardons aren’t worth anything.

Im sure they will be challenged. Bidens pardoning of his son Hunter really set a new precedent and legal scholars dont seem ro know which way it could go.

When he pardoned fauci, cheney, his family... it was the first time a pardon had been used on someone who had been neither charged nor convicted of a crime. ( other than draft dodgers and nixon after watergate)

1st time in history.
let that rattle around a bit.

Yeah, biden wasnt a scumbag!

quick little commutation of a guy who killed 2 fbi agents at close range in the head.
But .... but ....hes 80! Whooops!
So? you know who isnt 80?

2 dead guys.

No moral ground left to stand on here. Trump sucks but maaaannn, you really have to have your head buried to support the dems.
and im canadian!

Goalie, did you not get the memo that we all need to be 100% dogmatically in either team red or team blue? Where our team can do no wrong, and the other team can do no right?

Have you not been absobing your daily left / right propaganda exclusive of all counter propaganda?

My memory is kinda short, did Biden do anything right?
