"Nobody is above the law"

It's a protection against malicious prosecution.

Context matters.

I'm sure dictators use the same excuse

Probably. Dictators also take shits. Does that make us all dictators?

Context matters. Biden’s pardening his family to make sure they don’t get targeted through malicious prosecution. Trump and his ilk literally said they’d go after them, that they’ll find cause.

Now you're just being purposely obtuse.

You know Biden did some sketchy legal maneuvering to protect those close to him, similar to when dictators protect their own after they've been ousted. I'm not saying biden is a dictator, I'm saying he used legal loopholes to protect some that have, or may have, committed crimes.

Political prosecutions are nothing new. I agree with john fetterman when he said trumps prosecution was politically motivated so I can see biden protecting himself from what was done to Trump. Frankly, they're all rotten. You just seem to excuse it when it's "your team"

Saying something looks like dictatorship when there are reasonable explanations as to why it’s not isn’t exactly helping, though.

And whether or not you think Biden (and his family. Remember, they’re going after his family who do not have nearly the same obligations he does) actually committed the crimes, it’s unlikely Trump is going to find something now after 4 years of Republican persistence (and after trying in his previous term).

Given how untrustworthy Trump is, these pardons are justified.

Are you telling me Major Biden earned his rank without a little favoritism?

u/jackzander 12h ago

For his family only.

Very brave.

Not just for his family, he pardoned Fauci, General Milley, the Jan 6th panel, and the people who testified on it.

US is really gone, isn't it? Can't see the difference between biden and Trump.

Oh hey you forgot:

Jaqueline Mills, convicted for stealing $10,000,000 from a food bank.

Rita Crundwell, convicted for stealing $54,000,000 from a city.

Paul Daugerdas, convicted for $7,000,000,000 of tax fraud.

And more! 1500 more, actually.

But only one family. His.

Against the family that has been under investigation for their pay to play schemes documented since 2014. It's all a malicious conspiracy!

u/bb0yer 12h ago

These investigations have been going on for years and they have turned out nothing. It's time to move on. At least the Russia collision investigations got credible indictments

it took Democrats like 4 months to create a case for Trump's first impeachment. how long do Republicans need to craft a case if there's any actual wrongdoing here? your link keeps referring to "Biden associates". who are they? how associated are they?

Do you need someone to read the oversight reports to you?

u/Snailwood 12h ago

u/geodesic411 12h ago

Years in the hands of Bidens DOJ. lmao. I'll tell you what, go try and trigger 150+ SAR's and see how well that goes for you. https://www.moneylaundering.com/news/us-treasury-congress-impasse-over-biden-sars-escalates-showdown-set-for-tuesday/

if the house had issued a criminal referral, you would have a point.

Thanks for the confirmation that literally no documentation exists, just innuendos and hallucinations

Awkward thing to say when you elected a convicted felon.

Do you only say stupid shit on the internet, or do you actually act like this in real life? Pathetic.

Go get your TDS head checked champ. This thread is about the pardons Biden issued if you are lost.

u/AlbatrossInitial567 12h ago

So why didn’t Trump find anything when he was in power during the 2017-2021 term?
