On NBC News’ “Meet the Press” Sunday, moderator Kristen Welker asked Sanders for his thoughts on the possibility of Biden preemptively pardoning the committee members ahead of Trump’s upcoming presidency.
Sanders replied, “Well, I think he might want to consider that very seriously.”
“This is what authoritarianism is all about. It’s what dictatorship is all about,” Sanders, who may not be seeking another term in the Senate, said. “You do not arrest elected officials who disagree with you, who undertake an investigation.”

“You do not arrest elected officials who disagree with you, who undertake an investigation.”
I can't wait to see how that statement comes back to bite him.
“You do not arrest elected officials who disagree with you, who undertake an investigation.” You mean like the Democrats did against Conservatives and Religious people? If Biden gives future pardons, then the Democratic Party is finished. Trump will announce that everyone in his Administration and Party is pardoned for all future crimes they might commit.
The Dims are really hyping the vindictive-Trump narrative so that their cult followers don’t realize that the Dims themselves are the ones who’ve weaponized govt against political opponents.
Can a person die of a bite in the butt by irony?
If so, the democrats are committing suicide with all this talk about how Trump will weaponize the justice system. They don’t even know what their own committees have already documented.
Presidential pardons should be for specific crimes, not just blanket pardons for all possible crimes.
VERY carefully crafted statement there. Bernie and the Dems will claim they didn't arrest any ELECTED officials. They went after private citizens, former officials and former elected. Totally different of course. Sigh...
Bernie Sanders shows his totalitarian impulses.
All for authoritarianism and even totalitarianism when his side is in power.
Decrying any investigation into the crimes committed by his side when they are out of power.
So comrade Bernie is admitting they broke laws.
I wonder what Bernie thinks about “aiding and abetting”?
They don't know what was supposedly destroyed or lost either. This is far from being over.
I am not a LAWYER-—and I DO NOT THINK THERE IS SUCH A THING...
It is as if the instinct to engage in totalitarianism and to lie was woven into their souls. Soros, Mayorkas, Garland, Schiff, Raskin, etc etc
We will find out who Biden likes, and dislikes. We know he dislikes Pelosi and Kamala. Who else.
reminded if the preemptive “Indulgences” of the Catholic church in days gone by. one could actually purchase sin forgiveness for future sins from the church for a hefty “donation”. now one can just buy them from the biden crime syndicate. or is that crime SINdicate. not sure where God stands on this but this is another case of FAFO. all I know is I am not getting one...no matter what I do.
No such thing....but...if you’re going to do it....you have to name the crime.
Bernie Sanders is only 83 years old. Seems a lot older.
The democrats telling everyone ,in your face we are above the law
They were going after Trump the whole time he was in the White House, as well as before and after.
