    Given the circumstances, I’d have done the same thing. Under trump’s dictatorship, I’d imagine he wouldn’t have lived long in prison- what with all those…. Open windows.

      This is a blatant abuse of power by a totally incompetent President who represents a party of foolish woke children. But, by all means keep crying Orange Man Bad… the vast majority of the population disagree.

    Biden has always been a piece of shit. That said, he’s old, his other son is dead, and his loser son got caught up in a shitstorm that had less to do with justice and everything to do with politics and optics. The country decided that it is happy to go down the a fully corrupt, inept and fascist rabbit hole, and Biden opted to save his loser son and tell everyone to go fuck themselves and go suck an mushroom shaped cock.

    but

    EDIT: Don’t get mad at an old man for choosing to save his son. Be mad at a system that allows a man to abuse his power to protect his friends and family from consequences. For once, a proper use of “Don’t hate the player, hate the game”.

      If that was Biden’s motivation, then where is Fauci’s pardon? Or Adam “Enemy from Within” Schiff’s pardon? Or what about Liz Chenney who is supposed to face treason charges according to Trump, where is her pardon? What about Jack Smith, where is his pardon? Kash Patel has an appendix in his book which is a literal enemies and prosecution list, any pardons for anyone on that list?

      If Biden was concerned about the Trump justice department going after his political enemies, and Biden wanted to protect those people, there’s probably 80+ pardons he should be handing out.

      But instead he only issued one. For his son. So Biden is either actually concerned about overreach of the Trump justice department but he’s only willing to save his son, and leave everyone else hanging. Or, Biden isn’t actually that concerned with the Trump justice department and is just abusing his pardon power to protect his shithead son from the consequences of his own actions. Either way, fuck Joe Biden.

      Biden is sharpening the knife that will be used against every other family while saving his crackhead failson.

        Biden is not sharpening the knife: he simply placed a knife sharpener on the counter and is a good sport about letting others use it .

        It always was a caretaker presidency, that’s what I thought when he first got into office.

        I expect thoughtful words from his speeches as he gently leaves office

          The Biden admin is already going after Palestinian solidarity orgs and ramping up powers to use the military domestically.

      What is your favorite flavor of boot, personally?

      I’m quite partial to black leather, good thing that will be in fashion next year.
