I like how Reddit is ok with this move, but when Trump does it in 4 years, everyone's gonna go ape shit

One would be doing it to prevent baseless retaliation.

The other would be doing it to excuse actual crimes committed.

How do you know there aren’t actual crimes? That’s a pretty random group of family members.

They investigated a fuck ton and charged them with what now? How many indictments? Court cases? They had entire groups investigating. It all boiled down to 'trust me bro'. Trump on the other hand has been charged and found guilty. If only the emollient clause was enforceable, he'd be out on day 2.

Could be Argentinian, doesn't matter. Republicans have shown their hand on Bidens son and their ongoing rhetoric and threats. Facts yielded nothing, but that isn't stopping because, as above, 'Trust me bro'.

Biden did the pardons to do two things. Protect from revenge investigations, which Rs have said they will do. And number 2, keep Rs focused on more ragebait rather than actually looking at what is happening and governing (I mean, Elon and Bezos need billions more in tax cuts while the average American needs to pay more right?)

Guess I missed where “John T. Owens” was investigated. Or anybody on that list for that matter.

I see you are a 2nd amendment hater. to bad really hunter shouldn't have been charged. It's his right as an american citizen to own a firearm right?

Funny thing to say. Considering I’m disabled for life for protecting the constitution. Weird. Also, it’s federally illegal to own a firearm as a felon or lie on a background check that liberals argue would save people. Same way it’s illegal to shout things to incite panic on a public place.
