President Joe Biden is bestowing the second highest civilian medal on Liz Cheney and Bennie Thompson, leaders of the congressional investigation into the Capitol riot who Donald Trump has said should be jailed for their roles in the inquiry.

Biden will award the Presidential Citizens Medal to 20 people in a ceremony Thursday at the White House, including Americans who fought for marriage equality, a pioneer in treating wounded soldiers, and two of the president’s longtime friends, former Sens. Ted Kaufman, D-Del., and Chris Dodd, D-Conn.

“President Biden believes these Americans are bonded by their common decency and commitment to serving others,” the White House said in a statement. “The country is better because of their dedication and sacrifice.”

The new congress ought to open an investigative committee to investigate the criminality of this committee.

Didn’t Resident Biden give some medal to Cecile Richards, too?

A freedom medal - for the slaughter of the unborn

You can’t make this stuff up - Nor would you want to

Whoever is running the Biden administration is at this point just being intentionally “in your face” nasty to the MAGA movement. The level of pettiness is unreal, but not unexpected.

Well, of course, the most authoritarian president in US history, who bastardized our justice system in his effort to eliminate opposition and dissent, would see Stalinist show trials as “decent.” And nothing says heroic like tampering with witnesses, destroying evidence, and running a partisan kangaroo court.

Biden keeps tanking his legacy even more drastically on his way out the door. He may never be beaten as worst president in US history.

These medals won’t save them from the doom that is coming for them.

I’m just surprised Hunter wasn’t on the awards list. But maybe that will come later. After all, Joe has a bit more than two weeks left to do stupid and repulsive things.

Trump should issue a repeal of the awards and let Liz sue to regain the award.

He’s getting a medal?

Democrat Bennie Thompson, ranking member, House Committee on Homeland Security, and co-chaired J6 committee, introduced the absurdly named “Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable (DISGRACED) Former Protectees Act (HR 8081)” on April 19, 2024.

Democrat co-sponsors include Reps:
<><>Yvette D. Clarke,
<><>Troy A. Carter Sr.,
<><>Frederica Wilson,
<><>Bonnie Watson Coleman,
<><>Jasmine Crockett,
<><>Joyce Beatty,

Question: who put these Democraps up to facilitating a Trump assassination?

Call Congress: (202) 224-3121
U.S. House switchboard operator.

Message: Subpoena these lawmakers. Taxpayers demand to know who organized this heinous assault on democracy-——exposing candidates to harm and assassination——and the number of tax dollars and tax-subsidized aides and office supplies that were used in this legislative atrocity.

destroying evidence on a federal investigation...

seems like a slam dunk for jail time.

meanwhile, the chiefs of the banana republic hand out participation trophies.

Cong Bennie Thompson---teeth viciously bared
co-chaired the infamous Jan. 6th Commission
crafted the bill w/ nine Democrat co-sponsors to strip Trump of S/S detail.
was a black separatist early on (his resume enhancer?)

Thompson office aide, tax paid “civil rights” activist, Jacqueline Marsaw
tweeted she wished the assassin had “better aim.”
