Pardons aren't weaponizing the DOJ.

Now that Biden has preemptively pardoned his family, Congress needs to investigate the money trail that reportedly flowed to them.

JD Vance agrees with you on not pardoning the ones who attacked the cops.

Congress already investigated the money trail...except the guy who testified that the Biden's got bribes was a paid Russian informant, admitted to lying, and is now in jail.

Based alone on the two previous posts on this board, I feel better than ever that JD will continue the Trump legacy in 2029.

The Republican Party being in charge really has that big of an influence on your life? I get that way during the Spring. I am glad to hear you are enjoying life now. Not sure where in the world you live but it is bitter cold and gray skies here. Also snow cover so no green grass.

But that's what Paul consistently does, probably the biggest Hyprocrite on this board. I honestly could care less who Biden or Trump pardoned.

Both did the wrong but can’t call out both wrongs? Pretty much sums up both parties.

this. There are people on a daily basis here who act like they are freaking spokespeople for either party. "Everything X party does is wrong, while Y Party is full of just upstanding morally rich citizens." It's laughable. Both parties do the same corrupt shit on a daily basis, they equally suck, and they are all laughing at you.

I voted for Trump, but I disagree with pardoning the January 6 criminals.. They deserve everything they got and it was by no means politically motivated. These two things can exist. You don't have to take everything an elected officials believes or does wholesale. You can pick and choose for yourself. You also don't own their actions.

I was speaking more to the four horsemen of the apocalypse on here… Paul, Bobbie, Lou and mid.

I don't remember the Dems fomenting a riot on our Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power.
Let me see if I can find that.

Yes, the Dems do crazy shit and many are an embarrassment. Just look at Menendez.
But we can transfer power peacefully...which ought to be a basic prerequisite for any American president.

I don’t get the law suits against the DOGE committee already. So they want to make sure there’re federal bureaucrats are on a nongovernmental committee?

Think the DC bureaucrats are the main reason why we’re in this fiscal mess. Gawd forbid we give successful business leaders a chance to look at our books for potential savings.
