Watergate lawyer encourages Biden to pardon everyone on Trump's 'enemies list' [John Dean]
Fox News ^ | December 3, 2024 5:21pm EST | Gabriel Hays

CNN contributor and Watergate figure John Dean is urging President Biden to expand his pardon list to sink any prospect of President-elect Donald Trump getting “revenge” against his political enemies.

In a post on social media site Bluesky, Dean advised Biden to issue a “blanket pardon” for DOJ officials who have investigated or prosecuted Trump so he can’t punish them once he gets into office.

“Biden should keep going with his pardons: Trump, Jack Smith & team, Mueller & team, and a blanket pardon for all on Trump’s enemies list for any and all political statements before December 25, 2024! Merry Christmas,” Dean wrote on Sunday. […]

Dean, who was former President Nixon’s White House counsel during the Watergate scandal, wrote that pardoning Trump’s enemies could be a way to “take the wind out of retribution/revenge!”

Dean’s post came shortly after Biden announced that he pardoned his son, Hunter, who was facing potentially significant prison time for federal tax evasion and gun convictions. …

Yes, this is the same attention-seeker who admitted in 2018 that Nixon would have “survived” Watergate if something like Fox News were around in the 1970s.

Biden pardoning crooked officials just makes it that much easier to fire. It would be like lighting up a target with a laser. These fools are desperate and have no idea how a pardon spree like that would damage the Democratic Party.

Like they’d be restrained from doing damage merely by getting them out of government?

Best thing that could happen to Trump, would make his Jan. 6 pardons look even more reasonable.

Some Freepers are living in a fantasy world if they think folks like Jack Smith, Melvin Bragg and Letitia James are going to be prosecuted. Never, never ever going to happen. Let’s check back in a year and see where things stand.

Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord. Prison would also only limit their damage.

Well then we’ll end up in a civil war, because they will continue to foment trouble.

Depends on the prison. How much damage could they do in GTMO?

President Trump's DOJ and IRS must investigate Dean for tax evasion and other crimes. Dean is someone who should spend the rest if his life in SuperMax and die imprisoned.

Do it. The more voters driven away from the Democrats’ by their corruption the better. People are waking up. Give them even more reason to reject the Democrats.

1. Kicking them out of government would limit their future troublemaking abilities, at least to an extent.

2. In the public arena, having been given a BLANKET PARDON is a stigma / brandmark that severely degrades one's political credibility.

Okay, but then we get to do the same.

As America sinks into Third World status, this will be the new normal. Each administration arresting everyone who supported the previous administration, and blanket pardoning everyone who supported your administration.

And lots more riots, coups, money printing, and assassination attempts.

Unlike Nixon, Hunter Biden was convicted on Federal charges. President Biden's pardon was similar to those of Clinton pardoning his brother and Trump pardoning his son in law's father, who had been convicted.

If Biden pardoned all the Federal and state persecutors of Trump, that would be on a level even greater than what President Ford gave to Nixon, who had been President for over five years and not an appointed or elected administrator.

“Whatever. Just get them all out of government.”

But first, take away every security clearance so they can never get a job working with the government as a private citizen.
