President Joe Biden caused a stir when he announced on a Sunday evening in early December his intention to pardon his son, Hunter. The pardon itself wasn't particularly surprising — many (myself included) would have found it more surprising had Joe opted not to spare his son on his way out the door at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
The scope of the pardon (spanning close to 11 years, and very specifically harkening back to January 1, 2014, when Joe Biden was still vice president and Hunter was just about to be appointed to the Burisma board)? Now, that definitely raised eyebrows.
The outgoing president caused another stir Thursday morning when he issued a veritable pardon-palooza, pardoning 39 individuals and commuting the sentences of nearly 1,500 others.
This prompted numerous folks to start digging into some of these pardons, only to discover that among those receiving clemency were three Chinese nationals — one convicted of possession of child pornography and two convicted of spying.

Thanks to the Democrat lawfare punishing Trump Supporters,
I see both parties having to issue massive preemptive pardons at the end of each term.
Democrats need to do so now to protect those who committed crimes against Trump, J6 supporters, other Trump supporters.
Trump will need to do so in 4 years, to prevent more Democrat lawfare.
The cycle will never end.
Wonder what the going price is for a pardon?
Diddy pardon in 3...2...1...
From the article:
“The three [Chinese nationals] clemency grants were not issued on Thursday. They were, in fact, issued on November 22, 2024, so almost three weeks prior. They simply flew under the radar until the latest batch was announced.
So why on earth were these three the beneficiaries of Biden’s clemency?
As it turns out, these three had their sentences commuted as part of a prisoner swap with China effected in November. There was reporting on it at the time, but the Chinese nationals release were not identified at that point. In return, three Americans who had been detained for years by China were released. “
Here is the list of clemency grants thus far:

“The cycle will never end.”
You are correct. And there is a reason it will never end if we do not stop it now by insisting on Justice. That reason is Democrats.
Even if Trump allows the left’s lawfare to go without any justice, when Democrats once again gain the WH, they will embark on a scorched earth policy in going after their political opposition.
So we would end up with political law-fare, back to norms, then once more with political law-fare. The left NEVER ever returns to the “norms” they demand of the right. Remember, Trump allowed Obama and Hillary and her cronies to get away with what they did to his campaign in 2015/16. Did that stop the “cycle”? Of course not.
It is the left that insists on ramping things up and then demands that the right not retaliate. The problem is that the right usually obeys their demands.
THAT’S why things have escalated over the past three decades or so. Trump can stop it in its tracks by making them wish they had never ever started the lawfare in the first place.
How many fellow traitors will Traitorjoe pardon?
Everyone that have been claiming not to have done anything wrong now wants a pardon. And when they say they are concerned about false charges being leveled they should be asked if they can site any examples of when that happened.
Terrorists often demand release of guilty terrorist prisoners
along with demands.
The Dems and their large constituency of criminals can make this a broad policy if they are get back in power-—which could definitely happen.
Willie Horton (murderer used in GHW Bush campaign commercials when Dukakis policies let him out) said (smiling):
“I support the Democrats. It stands to reason because that’s in my interest.”
As I posted elsewhere, Remember the old song Pardon Me Ray, about the Tennessee governor?

Well now it is PARDON ME JOE!
Pardon me, Joe,
Are you the cat that signs the pardons?
Since you’re an old friend of mine
Just put your name on the line
(Put it on the line)
Double murder and rape
That’s all the jury put me in for
And I’m sure you’ll agree
They took advantage of me
Take a hundred thousand dollars, slip it under the door
Don’t mention any names and I won’t say what it’s for
Ain’t no use in cryin’
You’re not the one who’s dyin’
I gotta get my money’s worth for what I’m buyin’****
don’t say we live in a nation of laws and then drop this bullsh*t on us.
a PARDON forgives the sentence imposed for crimes committed.
if the crimes haven’t been charged then they cannot be forgiven for them.
it’s that simple.
to allow it is to say biden is king and all his allies are free to do whatever they want... over the last X years and X years into the future.
utter horsesh*t
