Joe Biden Makes One Last Bad Decision
Huffpost ^ | 1/20/25 | Paul Blumenthal and Igor Bobic

Posted on 01/21/2025 12:46:01 PM PST by DallasBiff

In issuing preemptive pardons for members of the Jan. 6 committee, former military leaders and government officials, and family members, now ex-President Joe Biden made one final terrible decision.

Before leaving the White House, Biden issued preemptive pardons for the members and staff of the Jan. 6 committee, former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mark Milley, former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Anthony Fauci, and the police officers who testified before the Jan. 6 committee. He also pardoned his brother James Biden and his wife, as well as his sister Valerie Biden Owens and her husband.

I hope it was a juicy one.

Apparently without realizing the inaccuracy, the author writes “these pardons...create the appearance of corruption, even where none exists.”

Biden is using a bib right now as he gets ice cream on his chin.

I am thankful someone has done the work of sifting through old interviews to locate the ones of Biden and others saying how terrible it would be if Trump issued lots of pardons proactively as he left his first term. “He would be showing his family and associates have crimes to hide.”

Condescending, haughty, hypocritical and now would be embarrassing if Dems had a conscience and high character.

They do not.

Fauci is not off the hook in my Opinion. That pardon does not protect him from prosecution in other countries. And if I were Trump then I would let those other countries know that extradition is not going to be a problem.

But Nixon did break the law, unlike the recipients of Biden’s pardons.

The self-delusion is truly powerful on the Left. Is there any way we can harness it for cheap and abundant clean energy?

Ha.

A boss at work once got a birthday card.

“While Biden issued these pardons, Trump shares the blame.”

Of course Trump is to blame.

After all, he “does pose a nexnelsrent. It’s not hypothetical.”

Did Michael Byrd, the Jan 6 murderer get a pardon?

No speculation, please.

The story told by Speaker Johnson, about Biden being unaware that he signed an executive order banning certain LNG sales, and claimed he did not sign something that stupid. When Johnson presented the text of the EO having done so, Biden just said, “oh well”.......

"None of these people are under investigation for committing crimes, nor is there any evidence that they committed any crimes."

You had better believe there's just LOT's of evidence against most of these, who've been pardoned! I can't wait to see all of it come out.

By the way, Zhio didn't pardon Clapper or Brennan, did he?
