To those that are freaking out over President Biden pardoning his son, take some time & look at the pardons & sentence commutations that the felon issued. Then, kindly STFU.

NEW: Clemency for Tina Peters would be unprecedented, based on my analysis of Gov Polis' 25 commutations. Peters hasn't shown remorse, taken accountability, or sought to restore harm. No Polis commutation was for a harsh sentence alone and Peters' would be the shortest by 30+ yrs

Biden’s presidency concludes tomorrow, but his final week has been nothing short of historic: 2,500 commutations and a ceasefire deal between Israel and Gaza mark the end of his consequential term.

im sorry but i do think lambasting joe biden for one bad commutation and ignoring the 1499 good ones is sending the extremely wrong message about whether he should do more commutations

I hope when Trump spends money from his PAC on the midterms, Democrats will point out that many millions of it were contributed by criminals right before they received pardons, commutations and charges dropped from Trump & his DOJ. It’s dirty bribe money from wealthy criminals.

Phang: Pardons and commutations—this is not something that should be driven by political motivations. Does it happen here and there? Of course it does. But is it ever this brazen, this grifty, like it is under Donald Trump? This pardon-palooza is a Trump specialty. It’s disgusting.

The ripple effect of fascism. Youngkin, a conservative quisling, is likely seeking out opportunities for performative Trumpism—watch for more grotesque pardons and commutations to come from other mini-Trumps, shredding rule of law & declaring white supremacy.
