    Why have people being lying to themselves about the Biden family and the others ? !
    There are none as blind as those who will not see, Sean. In fairness, I have been aware of the Biden crimes for quite some time now, as I'm sure you have too. But for the life of me, I can't understand why folks (and I'm thinking of those close to me) who were told that Biden's family was in it deep, and that Joe would pardon Hunter, then refuse to accept that they might have been wrong when it actually comes to pass (first Hunter pardoned and now this).

      It is harder to get a person to admit that they have been fooled, than to fool them in the first place ( old saying that works well for con-men / con-women )

      Just look at the numbers of pardons from Joe Biden ~ The Biden's are a nest of crooks and have been for decades in America ~ What does it say about the American Democrat party that the Biden's rose so high in that party ~ And what really is the American Democrat Party ? !

        Things are heating up for Mr Fauci. In response to today's pardon Rand Paul (Chairman of Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs) says "If there was ever any doubt as to who bears responsibility for the Covid pandemic, Biden's pardon of Fauci forever seals the deal.......Fauci's pardon will only serve as an accelerant to pierce the veil of deception. "

          People like you and me knew, that Joe Biden would pardon all sorts of dodgy people, and a lot of dodgy people in his own family.

          We know this, we see it coming ~ ~ But innocents, can't see it coming and can't understand why he is doing it !

          We know why he is doing it ~ Because the Biden family is as dodgy as fook, and have been for decades ~ And the Democrat party is a dodgy party and has been for decades !

          This is the reality of the Democrat Party and the Biden family !

          Now the Republicans are probably much the same ~ And who knows, maybe worse sometimes ~ But some People think the Democrats are whiter than white, when that cannot be further from the truth !

          I feel sorry for the innocents that have their eyes opened at times like this !

As P-Stu pointed out - and i hadnt thought to question it before - it is a farce of a privilege.
            It is indeed quite a strange privilege. I think we can safely say that American politics is dripping in corruption and has been for a very long time. This pardon business was arguably designed to get people off the hook.

                This seems to be one big hit of pardon, to clear the decks of crooks galore ! !

                I would say probably 90% of American Politicians have huge un-explained money ( and lots of it ) and nobody bothers to ask ~ Where did all this money come from ~ ~ And I mean 10's of millions if not reaching 100's of millions ~ ~ And it's both Republicans and Democrats ~ It's just taken as a given that you will become fabulously wealthy as an American Politician with no explanations !

                Obviously a whole lot of this is corruption but everyone ( media / everyone ) just turns a blind eye !

                You couldn't actually accumulate this sort of wealth from politics, unless it is corruption.

                    Suggesting that I wouldn't be 100% certain. Although tbf it was likely that he was. More in the context of him surviving the next 4 years.

                    Anyway. Here is Elon Musk giving a Nazi salute on MLK day. It must be great to be able to act with impunity.

                      The Greenland "bull****" was mentioned tonight by Trump when he was signing the executive orders. There are Russian and Chinese vessels all around their coast (I'm paraphrasing). But we sort of knew it wasn't bull**** didn't we?

                          Fair enough. There are some who think the thing was orchestrated and, to be honest, that type of thinking just is mindboggling. I understand the divisiveness that he causes but to think it was a fabricated hoax really is a stretch too far.

                          America is such a clusterf*ck.

                            Yes you did.

                            You said you didn't quite believe in the BBC as a bastion of integrity. I asked you why, and you went into a load of nonsense about media likening Trump to Hitler.

                            Given that you now acknowledge this was about media in the US - the likes of Mark Levin probably - then you've given no basis at all for your views on the BBC, which is widely regarded as one of the best journalistic outlets there is.

                            Could I ask you again so to detail your reasons for dismissing the BBC as a news source (which, to be clear, is what you did)?

                              BBC, for all its faults, is definitely one of the best (and most impartial) news sources there is. Anyone holding up Fox or CNN or, honestly, any American cable network as the true source is off their rocker. They're opinion outlets, not news outlets.
