A judge who handed down no jail time for 34 felonies, no suspended sentence, no fines and even wished the defendant "Godspeed " in his closing remarks. And on top of that he made his decision public before issuing from behind the bench. He's definitely unique that judge and you are also unique for thinking this was anything other than a political hit job.

Breaking news from Washington, just moments ago. Biden just pardoned Anthony Fauci. Why on earth would Fauci need a pardon? I thought he saved the world from Covid? At least that's what we were told for the last 4 years. Fair to say someone has been pulling the wool over the eyes of the world.Quote:

So effectively it seems it's to stop the Trump regime going after them. Given there's an active anti-vaxxer in health and an extremely petty and biased President with a criminal history coming in board (the BBC also report that "Trump has suggested he would take action against those who tried to hold him accountable for an attempt by his supporters to overthrow the 2020 presidential vote"), there's a weird kind of logic.
The whole pardoning thing is daft - although I notice the two Trump flag-flyers haven't criticised Trump for his pardons. Quelle surprise there.
Going on your posting history to date on this thread, I'm going to say yes. Yes you did.Quote:

And Trump is going to take action against those who tried to hold him accountable? They did try to hold him accountable and found nothing, and then the evidence (apparently exonerating him) went missing. And the "chief" J6 commissioner Liz Cheney could very well have been going to jail for her role in all of it. But Joey put paid to that didn't he.Quote:

Its appears like "go ahead and get Trump and if you don't succeed sure I'll pardon you anyway."
But keep on tuning into the BBC that bastion of truth and honesty. It probably explains why yore relying on my posting history rather than knowing the story yourself?

Who do you blame for the 1.2 million deaths in the US during COVID - the president who wanted to know if injecting bleach would cure the disease, or his chief medial advisor who made recommendations to save lives?Quote:

The BBC is one of the most renowned journalistic sites in the world. Your contribution, let's not forget, has been a YouTube video, which had already been removed, of someone who specialises in outrage and has a penchant for hysteria.Quote:

Really? I'd like to see some examples of him admitting his stuff was rubbish.Quote:

Yet Joe took the reins thereafter and the better part of another million people died. So who exactly do we blame again? And did Joe (the upstanding man of his word that we all know him to be) step down, like he said Trump should have?Quote:

Doesn't the world have a right to know? But Joe also didn't want anyone to know about Hunter's antics did he, and he stood on the same debate stage that night and told the world that his son did nothing wrong. And then went ahead and gave him a pardon too. Forgive me for feeling that old Joe isn't exactly above board about his actions and the actions of those around him.
The BBC WAS one of the most renowned journalistic sites in the world (with a major emphasis on "was"). But that was many years ago now.Quote:

The BBC is listened to worldwide for a reason.
Mark Levin...isn't.
The way they reported the news. How about yourself?
Why indeed? I tend to think that pardons are reserved for people who have done wrong.Quote:
