Thank you, Joe Biden, for opening Pandora's Pardon Box
Flopping Aces ^ | 12-03-24 | DrJohn

It turns out that some people are above the law and a lot of people are angry about it. Instead, we should be thanking Joe Biden.

Joe Biden has pardoned his son Hunter. It has brought a load of mixed reactions, some serious and some laughable. But in issuing the pardon, Joe Biden has opened up Pandora's Pardon Box, kind of a Newton's Third Law of Politics. It's important to note that Biden not only pardoned Hunter from the gun conviction and tax evasion charges but from crimes yet uncovered, going back to 2014, when Hunter was appointed to the Board of Burisma, through yesterday. It comes after Biden repeatedly asserting that no one is above the law and that he would not pardon Hunter, which was swallowed whole by the left-wing stooges.

Here's nine minutes of those stooges assuring us that Biden would never pardon his son.

In an encounter for the ages, here's Dan Goldman forced to watch himself say Biden would never pardon Hunter

And let us recall that Joe Biden hired 87,000 IRS agents to snag tax evaders and then pardons one of them.  Many of us expect Biden to pardon his brother Jim and may extend that to other members of the Biden family.

While Biden may have put out the immediate fire, there is still a lot of smoke about and the pardon may not end the Biden family jeopardy. Mitch McConnell's heir apparent John Thune has called for the Biden family investigation to continue. That could prove entertaining:

Hunter could still be called to testify before Congress or with investigators on the influence-peddling efforts. If he lies, it will be a new crime for which this pardon would not bar prosecution. He would no longer be able to count on a back-pocket pardon as an insurance policy.
There would be no 5th Amendment plea.

Biden's pardon sets the stage for even more adventure.

I don’t think Biden is nearly done with his pardons. Biden will go down as a traitor.

This is the best Christmas gift ever by FJB! He has no clue what he has just done. Not only did he completely destroyed the mainstream media in one big swoop, no one believes them anymore, and gave a blanket pardon to everyone that Trump feels like pardoning the day he puts his hand on the Bible on January 20th! Thanks to worst POS president ever in American history.

Now officially 5 systems of Justice in the United States:

1. Connected Democrats: no punishment. Think Hillary, think Obama, think Seth Rich (unsolved), the DuPont, think The Biden Crime family.

2. Unconnected Democrats: may or may not be charged by a DA, and always get “Constitutionally” protected riots.

3. Unconnected Republicans: punishment to maximum extent of the law.

4. Politically connected Republicans: unconstitutional criminal proceedings, unusually long prison time without charges, denied council, maximum penalty for any law, and partisan juries. Think Jan 6th grandma who walked around after invited in. Or Trump associates that correctly claimed executive privlege.

5. Donald Trump: false evidence allowed. False testimony allowed. No attorney client privileges, vendetta raids, partisan juries, dirty judges, dirty prosecutors (who now want pardons), blocked from submitting exculpatory evidence. No Constitutional Rights, no protections, and finally new laws past and used retroactively!!

This is the America that Joe Biden and Barack Hussein Obama have delivered to you. And all of that……for just the low low price of about 24 Trillion dollars of debt, and destruction of US manufacturing.

Obama may need a pardon himself by the end.

I predict all Presidents from here on out will issue blanket pardons for their immediate families and themselves before leaving office.

Brought to you by the Democrats politicized lawfare against political opponents, and the precedents set by Biden pardoning Hunter and Clinton pardoning his drug dealing brother

Democrats will continue getting in their best jabs at Republicans from now until Inauguration Day (and beyond). An attorney said that one of Trump's criminal lawsuits will be put on hold because Trump will become President again in late January. The attorney also said that after Trump's second four-year Presidential term ends, that criminal lawsuit can then be resumed against President Trump.

Then during the last week, Biden/Kamala handed out a $6.6 Billion loan to Elon Musk's EV archrival, Rivian, so that Rivian can build a brand new EV factory. (Musk is a huge supporter of President Trump, meaning Biden is exacting revenge against his political opponents.) Biden's spokesperson said that President Biden wants to use our taxpayer dollars to create a competitor against Musk's Tesla. Then a few days ago, a Biden-appointed Delaware Judge again rejected Musk's Tesla pay package a second time (even after the company's own shareholders overwhelmingly approved Musk's pay again). Talk about direct U.S. government interference in the business world. Shareholders: We want to pay our CEO X number of dollars. Biden's weaponized legal system: Nope, the Biden government (and some Biden judge) decides what your CEO gets paid. All of that is centralized planning, aka Biden/Kamala U.S. Communism.

Then Biden (or more accurately, Biden's/Kamala's handlers) pardon Hunter Biden's activities over an 11-year span. That absolutely infuriates Democrats because it heavily blunts their criticism of President Trump. Anytime Democrats complain during the next four years about President Trump, I'm going to say to them: Your unethical Biden totally abused his Presidential power, broke his repeated promise to not pardon his family members of their crimes, attorney Biden undermined the American justice system and the Office of the President, and betrayed the American people's trust. What a way to leave office, Biden. (Actually, Biden/Kamala aren't done yet. Just imagine what other crap they'll pull in their last two months.) Total disgrace.

Kamala would have been the worst President in American history (by far) but Biden holds onto that title for which he must thank Kamala for her buffoonish Presidential election campaign. Worst-President-Ever Biden should thank Tampon Tim, too. Barack Obama, your "legacy" is now totally destroyed. Biden's disgraceful pardon is the icing on your "legacy" cake.

The big question now for Americans is: Why should any American -- even one -- believe anything Democrats say?

BS. They never “swallowed” nothing. To say the MSM were tricked, is to say the MSM has integrity. The MSM knew darn well their job, and they did it. Now, they can “act” surprised. BSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBSBS

The Democrats always take their extremism to the extreme and it always backfires on them. They cannot be trusted, ever, to do the right thing.

The irony is virtue-signalling Biden hired 87,000 IRS agents to snag tax evaders.......
and then virtuously pardons a tax cheat who happens to be his ne’er do well son.

The possibility exists that he knew full well what he has done and did it as revenge for robbing him of the chance for a second term of the presidency.

This may be his retaliation against the DS.

I love that: "The Democrats always take their extremism to the extreme." Can I use that?

Biden's handlers told him to keep saying he absolutely will never pardon his son, which would help Potato46's "reelection" chances (previous election stolen). After Oblamea kicked Potato46 to the curb, Biden's repeated insistence that he will never pardon Hunter did not create any additional issue for Kamala in her last-minute campaign. Of course, it was just another Democrat lie (like so many others). Biden's handlers and Biden had every intention to fully pardon his son -- they just didn't want to tell the American people until after the election.

That reminds me of the nationwide violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa wild thug mob riots throughout the 2020 "Election" year. That's when even the Democrat VP nominee Kamala Harris went on Colbert and told him that the violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa wild thug mob riots will not, and should not, stop before the 2020 "Election" and after the 2020 Election. (Watch the YT video -- even far-left Colbert was stunned by her statement.) But all Democrats, including Vice Liar Kamala Harris already knew that the DNC-directed nationwide violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa wild thug mob riots would immediately stop if Potato46/Hyena "won" the 2020 "Election." And when it was announced that Potato46/Hyena allegedly "won" the 2020 "Election," the nationwide violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa wild thug mob riots "magically" and abruptly stopped. Clearly, the violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa thug mob rioters (who held up "Biden/Harris in 2024" signs) were directed by the Democrat Party power-brokers.

The message being sent to American voters in 2020: We violent Black Lives Matter/Antifa wild thug mob rioters will continue violently rampaging throughout the nation unless and until Potato46/Hyena are handed the "election win." Otherwise, if you elect President Trump in 2020, we'll continue our nationwide violence. (Typical DNC Election Tactic.)

It seems to me that he has no choice but to pardon his entire family since the Senate and House Committees have the records of disbursements to these people from the bank accounts of any one of the 40 “corporations” that Hunter, et Al, formed as part of this grift.

This puts the exclamation point on the disastrous Biden Presidency.

His legacy will be the pardoning of the Biden Crime Family!

I, WR Nostradamus, predict that Biden will issue quite a few more pardons before January 20, 2025.

I, WR Nostradamus, predict that the senate confirmation hearings will be a circus of lying and drama.
