Pardon This!

Presidents should never use the power of the pardon to deny justice, especially if a person has close personal ties. When a man is guilty he deserves to pay for his crimes.

Yes, Trump should never have pardoned Steve Bannon, Charles Kushner, Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, Michael Milken, Dinesh D'Souza....

----------------

Hunter Biden shouldn't have received a pardon from his father because he shouldn't have needed one. No one has ever gone to jail for the "crimes" Hunter was convicted of.

As in similar cases, Hunter should have gotten off with a hefty fine and a lengthy probation but the same corrupt legal system that merely sniffed at Trump stealing classified documents intentionally broadened the case as part of a smear campaign against President Biden.

It is my opinion that President Biden reneged on his vow not to pardon his son because he knew that if Kash Patel became head of the FBI the only way Hunter would ever leave the confines of his incarceration was feet first.

Don't think so? Just ask Jeffrey Epstein.

Anyway, what's the big deal? At least Joe didn't appoint Hunter ambassador to France.

--------------

Well, of COURSE Trump is choosing cabinet members with checkered pasts. You can't blackmail anyone without a skeleton, a dead girl or a live goat in their closet.

---------------

Crime statistics say that only 2% of rapists are ever convicted.

Trump is one of those 2%. Think about that.

He's not only a rapist, he's a failure at it, just like everything else.

Today's Retread-O-Matic comic is from July 21, 2020. It's like I could perceive the future, right? (So how did I miss buying Apple at $16? Sigh.)

Only one more deja vu-toon before the flood resumes. Cheers!

Biden needs to pardon anyone who wants one. He also needs to ratify the 28th Amendment, the Equal Rights Amendment, which he can do.

I agree with Len Koz. President Biden now has immunity. He can do anything he wants as long as it's "official." What are they going to do to him?

Biden can retire back to Delaware and tune it all out while Trump does his best to erase his "legacy."

Len Koz

I feel that Joe Biden's remarks about pardoning his son should have been, "Fuck all y'all."

ChuckyPeirce

Actually, Hunter was simply convicted under the legal system usually reserved for minorities.

Those crimes are entries on their "resumes". It's how he knows those people have the extreme moral and ethical flexibility required to work in his regime.

Excuse me.

I mean "administration", of course.

Lefty (mod)

As Keith Olbermann says "Biden needs to pardon 10 million of us."

As for the people Trump pardoned, the list of scumbags is freaking endless.

Anonymous

You forgot to mention Mike Flynn.

eddi

He didn't pardon Hunter, he rescued him. That's how I've been seeing it. There's a little list of others who need blanket pardons. Especially some that never committed a crime. Jack Smith and Anthony Fauci come right to mind.
