Summary
Sen. Bernie Sanders urged President Biden to “very seriously” consider pre-emptive pardons for members of the Jan. 6 Committee after Trump threatened to jail them.
Trump has also pledged to pardon convicted Jan. 6 rioters, calling their imprisonment unjust.
Sanders condemned Trump’s remarks as authoritarian, while some Republicans, including Sen. Lindsey Graham, disagreed with Trump’s proposal.
Committee members, including Adam Schiff and Bennie Thompson, defended their work, calling Trump’s comments an attack on democracy and the rule of law.
Right now, Biden could remove Trump, and the Supreme Court ruled he could not be held accountable while president.
I bet this post will be used against me as proof of a crime in the future. We’ll just have to wait and see.
A martyrdom so that cretin J.D. Vance gets to take over after him?
Nah, fuck it, go all the way. There’s something up anyway. World leaders are becoming more frantic and desperate. They’re scared of something.
The projected collapse of the environment around 2040?
Trouble is only the presidet is immune from prosecution, per SCOTUS. Unless Biden personally chokes the life out of Trump’s flabby, orange body, someone else would be on the hook for murder
- Order his murder
- Pardon those responsible
- ???
- Profit?
Not advocating, just saying the “logic” of complete immunity plus his pardon powers means he can just make it go away, right? (This is why the idea of prosecutorial immunity is a terrible one.)
I beg your pardon
Can I get a free pardon? I’m gonna do a Green Mario and that pardon might be useful.
No fed posting.
Why do people think Trump would abide by pardons? He and many of the politicians supporting him have stomped all over tradition, procedure, and legal mandates.
He’ll get the supreme court to allow a sitting president to cancel pardons but for some reason he’ll be the only one that applies to if a Democrat tries to use that power at some point.
It’d increase the amount of work he has to do and slow down his ability to act.
