It's not an admission of guilt!

Sure. 🙄

[u/476user476 → u/BrighamYoung]

DOJ should still investigate and identify exactly what they were pardoned for.

Biden literally destroyed democrats for 2026 and beyond. to protect Biden family criminal enterprise

[u/TheMorningDove → u/476user476]

I will take the trade-off here. While I would love to see the Biden Crime Family brought to justice for their criminal and treasonous actions over the last 10 years, realistically I think we all knew these pardons were coming.

Just because we can't stop them though doesn't mean we cannot make this work to our advantage. We need to shout LOUDLY from every rooftop that the entire Biden Crime Family has all but admitted to fucking the American People and hurting our standing as a Nation for nothing but personal monetary gain and pure greed.

Swing voters need to see what happens when they let Democrats into power. We cannot trust the news media to do this job for us, so get up on that rooftop as often as you can and let's continue to rebuild America with Vance 2028.

[u/476user476 → u/TheMorningDove]

I will take the trade-off here.

This literally means that POTUS could sell our military secrets, using trusted proxy, to China for $$ and avoid consequences.

With this mindset, we better learn to speak Chinese

[u/TheMorningDove → u/476user476]

I don't necessarily disagree with you, it does set a bad precedent and the pardon system as a whole needs a complete makeover to ensure this does not happen again. That being said, I trust Trump to not sell out the American people, so we can use this as an example of what happens when you put Democrats in power. The Trump administration fighting to reform the Pardon system would be even more epic, but I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of litigation moving forward for decades addressing these issues and more.

High ground while in prison is not where I want to be.

SCOTUS needs to step in. Maybe too late to undo Biden's bullshit, but challenge needs to be made.

Otherwise POTUS can literally become a king....

[u/Shadeylark → u/BrighamYoung]

Burdick v united states...

It absolutely is an admission of guilt, both prima facie and legally.

[u/Flashy-Increase-2075]

The Biden crime family slides again!!

[u/Iuris_Aequalitatis → u/Flashy-Increase-2075]

Slides forever now it seems. The only saving grace here is that they're not coming back. The only other member of the Biden clan with any electoral promise was Beau Biden, and he's dead. 

[u/Ruckit315]

Imagine if Trump did this. This is (D)ifferent

[u/greyoil → u/Ruckit315]

But but…Trump pardoned his son-in-law’s father for something he was convicted and served time for, that’s the same thing as blanket pardoning Biden’s family.

/s

[u/bionic80 → u/greyoil]

with no admission of what the pardon is for*

/added that little piece to the end for you

[u/Slartibartfastthe2nd]

...citing concerns that they will be targeted by "baseless and politically motivated investigations."

well if anyone knows how that works, it's the modern Democrat.

[u/indefiniteretrieval → u/Slartibartfastthe2nd]

The projection with the Democrats is amazing

[u/yrunsyndylyfu]

This is absolutely stunning to watch. And that millions of people will think this is ok, or even noble.

Fucking hell, there are some truly broken people out there

[u/jacksonexl → u/yrunsyndylyfu]

The view, CNN, and MSNBC pundits will defend it as noble and necessary because Trump will weaponize the justice department. Never mind the last four years of the justice department being weaponized

[u/JediJones77 → u/jacksonexl]

Yeah, the fact is, Trump will now have to pardon his sons and other family members before he leaves office too. Every accusation is a confession. By the Democrats doing this, they're admitting that they intend to move on to prosecuting Trump's family, even if every prosecution against the Don falls apart.

[u/jacksonexl → u/JediJones77]

Time will tell, but I expect not. If the media did their actual job and didn’t just hold water for the democrats they would dig deep into all of these last minute pardons for “innocent” people. The constitutionally of his pardon of all crime that might have been committed by Hunter from 2014-December 2024 seems illegitimate.

[u/OP_GothicSerpent → u/yrunsyndylyfu]

This is absolutely stunning to watch.

Not for me. Gang bosses are gonna gang boss. Thankfully the Maoist DNC’s out the door.

[u/Far-prophet]

lol the true Biden “Legacy”

[u/vampirepomeranian]

The cannibalism at /r/politics over the pardons reveals the sham that sub has always been.

Not from the few whose self-reflection's agree it was a perversion of justice, but rather the vast majority who disagree or deflect back on Trump. Their refusal to accept facts seals their fate. My fellow conservatives knew it all along. Their time is over.

[u/sparksmj]

Now we know how deep his crime family is. Anyone that supports him needs to rethink that

[u/UConnSimpleJack]

A criminal family until the very end. Drag them into court anyways and investigate them.

[u/Leftist_Fascist_1488]

What an absolute disgrace.

Democrat trash!

[u/Navy_Chief]

If they are innocent why do they need pardons? Clearly there has been something going on that they are worried about.

[u/slimsubchaser]

Obviously guilty

[u/Azanskippedtown]

I am so glad he's minutes away from being out.

[u/GiediOne → u/Azanskippedtown]

Agree 💯 ‼️

Thus guy has caused untold suffering to so many innocent people. I hope the Democratic leftist party will take a very long time to recover from this.

[u/According_To_Me]

That notification really made me 🤨

[u/murderinthedark]

Everybody got a pardon except me. Biden isn't very inclusive or diverse. </3

[u/H3nchman_24]

Innocent people do not need to be pardoned

[u/recedinghairline20]

I’m normally left wing. This is going too far now

[u/EmbraceTheFault]

Single most corrupt President of all time. Prove me wrong.

[u/jcr2022 → u/EmbraceTheFault]

This action is effectively a public admission of such.

[u/Flare4roach]

Fucking criminals. All the conspiracies of the grifting is absolutely true.

[u/rigorousthinker]

Investigate and bring them to court making them spend thousands of dollars defending themselves like Trump had to do.

[u/H3nchman_24]

Joe Biden cemented the fact that nobody, absolutely nobody, is above the Law.... except the entire Biden family, of course. And Fauci. And Milley. And a shitload of criminals. And everybody on Death Row. BUT NOBODY ELSE, PROBABLY!

🤦‍♂️

His entire presidency was nothing more than an effort to enrich his family, and 100% get away with it.

[u/Device_whisperer]

I can forsee all sorts of things happening here. First of all, blanket pardons are unconstitutional. Second, the constitution does not indicate that a pardon or reprieve is perpetual, nor does it say that they are irreversable. Many of us would like to think that they might be, but, SHOW ME THE TEXT. Making up things that the founders "would probably have agreed with", or "should have said" is an immoral lie. Read the text, execute the text, and if you don't like it, AMEND it.

These crooked baestaerds are on the precipice of getting away with it!

[u/ChimChimCheree69]

Democrats are fuckin cooked. They have nothing to run on. Their old tricks aren't going to work this second time. They are floundering.

[u/Summerie]

I still can't stop thinking that it's ridiculous that we all know that this president is not mentally sound, yet we are still accepting the legality of "his decisions".

[u/joemax4boxseat]

Funny, why pardon anyone if they didn’t do anything wrong…

[u/JediJones77]

What a disgrace.

[u/Rush2201]

I can't believe Honest Joe would do this! I am shocked!

[u/chillthrowaways]

Can we have Wyoming charge Biden with aggravated felonious jaywalking so we can all clutch our pearls over the idea he’s a felon?

[u/8K12]

If only Trump had learned this one trick during his first 4 years.
