President Biden pardons son Hunter

[Strike 5,553]

I'm just happy to know Hunter is so grateful for this second chance and vows not to take it for granted.  Reminds me of O.J. promising to bring the REAL killers to justice:

You object to it because he lied about it - not because it is corrupt.

Okay here’s a Biden story that actually still matters.

It’s bullsh1t.

I’d like to see a constitutional amendment to limit the president’s pardon powers. Maybe get rid of them altogether? It’s just ripe for abuse, including here

So question for our lib friends here at the GC - Worms, the Timmay's, Honcho, etc.... - Do you think Joe was telling the truth for the last 4+ years when he said he would not pardon Hunter and just changed his mind or do you think he intended to pardon him if needed the entire time? 

He probably always intended to do it. Maybe there was an agreement with Kamala that if she won, she’d pardon him if she had to (like if he was going to actually go to prison or something)

Nate Silver going ballistic about this.  Damn.

Tim thinks he is the arbiter of what is moral and what isn’t.  Like all leftists. 

[Strike 5,553]

Joe should also pardon all the J6 defendants in the name of fairness.  They all did less treasonous things than Hunter anyways.

[Death 302]

It's a good thing Trump never pardoned any hardened crooks at the end of his first term.

"I want ice cream, Do you... where.... have you got ice cream. Vanilla with caramel."

"Here Joe sign this."

"I'm going to need a new diaper too. Where's the obahtma tranny with the nice smelling hair?"

:Joe, Hunter needs this, can you sign it for him, please. Here's a pen."

"Vanilla with Caramel please. And the tranny and the cowfumdoup bedoo and the diaper and the vanilla and caramel ice cream.."

"Sign this Joe. Take the pen. Good boy, you get a gold star and some ice cream!""

That’s correct. Why do you regard this as idiotic?

Because you are OK with Biden's getting millions of dollars from foreign governments who we then support in a war which we fund hundreds of billions of dollars and puts us on the brink of WWIII and your only problem is a lie.   Your complete blind trust into our government institutions is what makes you idiotic.  You are incapable of rationally looking at facts and coming to a conclusion yourself.  You have to be told told what to think by some so-called 'trusted source'.  

[BunnysBastatrds 2,442]

 I’m shocked I tell you. Shocked. Now go hit the showers with him. 

[RLLD 4,230]

Would anyone of us not do this to protect our own son?  Of course he did this, and some of us (notably myself) told you all he would months ago.

Are we clairvoyant? No, we are realists. 

Further, we cannot forget that Hunter is the bad man, a pivot point for the Biden family criminal enterprise.  He HAS to be protected to avoid the rest of their deeds being exposed. 

[RaiderHaters Revenge 4,350]

I was really hoping he would get convicted so it would goto the supreme court and eventually remove self incrimination from the application

The hypocrisy here is hilarious.  You choads are obsessed with Hunter Biden.  Petty criminal hunter Biden who you tried to prosecute for years, it kills you that he's not in jail, hilarious.  Meanwhile Trump pardoned far worse including his own family.  Clown show.

Petty criminals often need 11 years of criminal activity pardoned.

Hunter was always the means to get to the heart of Joe's crimes.  This is how the DOJ has always handled organized crime, so the strategy fit.

Hunter was a rather easy target and there was obvious deference toward him overall that made it even easier to get after him later.

Not surprised he got a pardon, none of us should be, this was always going to happen.

The problem here, mostly for liberals, will be the precedent it sets.

Several other presidents have pardoned family members. Trump pardoned Charles Kushner for witness tampering, tax evasion and illegal campaign contributions in 2020. He named him ambassador to France yesterday.

I can recall one other instance of a President pardoning a family member, but setting aside the irrelevant for a moment.   I can see how this could open up an avenue for Trump to pardon himself.  And I think we can all agree, we would oppose that.

SO, take a few minutes today to not be a retarded child, and take this a little more seriously, if you can.

What precedent?  Pardoning family members?  It's already been set, your boy Trump did it 4 years ago, and others before him.

[Engorgeous George 2,331]

I had no doubt this would happen,  Imagine anyone believing the pledge made by a politician.  I think most simply did not believe Biden's statements on this which is why, of course, the press asked about this over and over, the pledge was not believable and so now here we have the proof of it.

As I noted above, I could see how Trump might now pardon himself....   I think that is a real outcome potential at this juncture, and I think we can all agree that we would NOT support that.

Well, for people such as yourself you wont support it for a Republican, the adults here would not support for either party.

Has Trump implied or indicated he would go after Hunter?

 

If the worry is about who Trump might go after why not pardon Jill, and Joe's brother as well as Trump might go after them.

Trump pardoned Charles Kushner in 2020 and just appointed him as ambassador to France yesterday. I don’t remember your complaints about “precedent” then. I wonder why?  

[Reality 3,121]

Not surprised that the biggest hacks on this site - mdc, gutter, honcho, etc. are not only ok with this, they are defending it.

Also, this isn't about taxes and guns. Joe is protecting his own rear. 

 

[shadrap 228]

I expected this.   I'm more upset over open borders, inflation, crime, political persecutions, & covid lies

[Engorgeous George 2,331]

I remember the prosecutions of Hunter Biden being touted as proof the DOJ was impartial, as proof the prosecutions of Trump were not lawfare.  That "proof" seemed weak when Hunter's first plea deal, the one rejected by the judge as unconscionably insignificant in scope of punishment and responsibility came to light.  The "proof" seems weaker still in the light of this poardon, a pardon pledged not to be coming as the candidate was trying to sell himself.

This entire thing was silly to begin with, prosecuting for tax evasion from 2017/2018, when he had already paid all the penalties. I read stats that said over 95% of similar cases wouldn't be charged once the penalties were paid. This entire thing was the GOP screaming about Hunter and the fake Biden crime family, otherwise it would have been the biggest nothing burger ever.

Well, you would have to use your brain, and given that your are rather consistent with stupidity, it makes sense that you are not getting it.

Here, let me help you just a little.   Biden just used the Trumpism that it was illegitimate prosecution to justify his actions, you stupid little sh!t......any thoughts on using that as a reason? Any at all?   Use your focking brain for a change.....

Now, Trump can point back to that and pardon himself later......

You think he wont?   Really?   Are you that focking stupid?

I actually like the idea that now Hunter can testify and can no longer plea the fifth since he can't be incriminated. Maybe this is just cope idk. Will have to see how it plays out.

I'm not surprised. I'm not enraged by it. I would expect a career politician father to do this for their son. Hopefully we can reduce the corruption during this term.

This might reduce the pool of folks willing to run for president as well as those willing to serve in an administration.  Then again, who knows, maybe it would not.  I know the founders had some conceerns along these lines, but who knows how it would work in practice unless we actually implement it.

 

Would you eliminate the power entirely, or just as to members of the presidential family, administration, and donors?  Meaning what about those requests from convicts wholy unassociated with the administration.  There are always a few such applications that may have some merit, you know, actual miscarriages of justices.
