Since Bidens pardons are not really even pardons legally. There is no crime or conviction to remove. It’s ceremonial. Like Nixons. And the VietNam vets pardoned for going to Canada they were not officially convicted. But no one pushed it. I’m sure if it were ever pushed to the USSC it would fail.

So I guess Trump could Pardon himself from the city and state conviction “ceremoniously” also.

As far as the Biden pardons, this is just another instance where the swamp gets a get out of jail free card.
Until such time when these people are held legally accountable for their sleazy actions, and coverups, it will be nothing but "rinse & repeat" in the future.

People will repeat their actions, if they have no fear of punishment.

@Red Leg and @Tanks both make a very good point, and makes sense to me.

At this point Trumps agenda is actually more important than putting these failed and discredited lumps in jail.

Those failures have 5 people on MSNBC that still believe them.

Except that lawyer Liz actually has a criminal referral for witness tampering. That really sends a bad message. The others are just window dressing.

Should Biden suddenly be diagnosed as having Alzheimers or other such debilitating mental/cognitive brain disease up on his departure as president; could a lot of his actions be challenged and subsequently null and voided?

Nice work. I learned something in that I always thought the interior linings were high quality felt. Thank you for sharing the article on blaise. How do you find the leather treatment product vs say neetsfoot oil?

They have already used that defense with great success. Classified document case

Carmel Mission Inn was one of our favorite accidental discoveries that my wife and I have ever made in our travels over the years, discovered during a last-minute weekend getaway to Big Sur and Napa. We loved it so much, we took our daughters back there during the Thanksgiving holiday later that same year. And the From Scratch restaurant nearby was really good as well.

PS - that beach is one of only two places in the world where my wife couldn't help but burst into tears of joy at the natural beauty. I couldn't have agreed with her more. We are truly fortunate to live in a country with such scenery.

In the mid eighties, we were in Monterey for a year while I endured Arabic language emersion training and our second child was born (he still deals with that native Californian thing ). At the time, I was a captain, and in that area we couldn't afford to pay attention. But we loved the then new aquarium and occasionally would save our pennies for a baby sitter and an evening at the Hog's Breath Inn where the owner, that Clint Eastwood fellow, was often in attendance.

About as likely as the IRS refunding your last year's taxes.

You are exactly right......nothing will ever change without accountability.....damn.

A rare occasion. A Monday I actually looked forward to enjoying

An unusual mix of jilted and triumphant... this inaugurational gathering.

 

[Brent in Az]

There are people at that inauguration who's mouths I wouldn't piss in if their teeth were on fire.

A veritable who’s who of sociopaths. Hillary at the top of the list

Nothing for Vindman last minute.....?

 

[Datchew]

The preemptive pardon business is a joke. It's like painting in big scarlet letters "GUILTY BUT SPECIAL CASE" on their backs.

I'm not sure I wouldn't have wanted to just take the prosecution risk if I were them. Their reputations, though already circling the drain, are slimed forever now by the highest office.

 

[Flewis]

Watching now. What a great day! GOD Bless America.

Nancy Pelosi is no doubt sitting in front of the T.V, deeply submerged in a bottle of Vodka, or 3.

Many people not in science or medicine may be unaware of the damage Dr Mengele (Fauci) did to Humanity. He had a lot of help from the democrats and their censorship arm. He was able to lie and obfuscate long enough for the Chinese to delete all relevant data from the internet that would have.... could have....allowed for early gene sequencing of the Covid 19 virus and potentially allowed for an early cure or a valid vaccine that wasn't harmful. He helped make 151 millionaires at the CDC, but that's another story. And he made billions for his handlers in Big Pharma and China. What percentage of the 6 million deaths are at his feet? Don't know. Dems prevented ANY discussion of the science, and went with the dollar. I will never forgive Fauci, may he rot in Hell......thanks Joe......your legacy is complete. I hope you have done lasting damage to the Party of Hate.....the dems..........FWB

If they hadn’t done anything illegal they wouldn’t need pardons……
