Just Brett Bruen complaining on FOX about Trump tweeting about Flynn.

A pardon now would deprive his new legal team of the opportunity to show in court that the Justice Dept colluded with his former attorneys to have him plead guilty to a crime he didn’t commit. If that point can be established, he has a good chance of winning a huge settlement from his former legal team. A premature pardon could be to his detriment.

If the FBI is so incompetent such that they lose sensitive records, then they should not be allowed to handle sensitive information.

This is America. We aren't supposed to have a Stasi or KGB. This is so horrible it's hard to know what to say. I always thought the FBI was there to protect all of us. Now it appears that the FBI likes some people, and doesn't like others (e.g. Strzok’s comments about ‘smelling the Trump voters at Walmart’). So, unless Strzok is an aberration, and people like him are rare in the FBI, the FBI has failed America.

The article hints at things, but is severely lacking in pointing to a basis for its conclusions.

Ugh.

It may be time to disband certain government agencies and start from scratch.

Suspend, Commute, and Pardon, are three different things.

Maybe so, but that means nothing in a court of law where the “duress” comes from the prosecutor.

I think I agree with you in principle, but all these cases all result from and are part of an illegal coup attempt against a president.

Sorry, but as bad as Coronavirus is in old people (often lethal or life-crippling), it still doesn’t come close to explaining Biden’s condition.

"After the election, whether trump wins or loses. That’s when you issue the full pardon."

OK, now you need to re-read what you just wrote. HOW can President Trump pardon ANYONE if he loses??

The entire reason e are at this point is because the Judge refuses to hold the Prosecutors(Team Meuller) in contempt. They outright refused to provide these records despite the Judge’s Order. After dragging that out for over a year they no claim records are lost??? Just like the 302s were mixed up with the wrong names for well over 2 years. Judge doesn’t want to find fault with the DS. He is a coward. He could have dismissed this matter for cause at any time. DS is still running the show. Same with the FISA cases. Slow playing to save the Judges involved.
