Summary
Trump vowed to pardon individuals jailed for their role in the January 6 Capitol attack on his first day in office, reiterating his campaign promise.
Trump criticized the justice system and the conditions faced by those detained, many of whom pleaded guilty.
Over 1,500 people have been charged in connection with January 6.
Trump also discussed empowering his incoming Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel to investigate political rivals.
President Biden is reportedly considering preemptive pardons for key figures targeted by Trump.
He wants to deport “illegal” immigrants because they’re allegedly “violent criminals,” but is about to pardon the white men & women who violently tried to overthrow the US government.
I hate it here.
I just don’t try and make sense of it much anymore
I really wish cool Americans like you would move here to Australia, and we could just export all of our wankers
Easy there — you already filled up your quota with Rupert Murdoch.
I’m game, you have healthcare…which I’ll need for all the shit down there trying to kill me.
He’s a terrorist. A literal terrorist. He wants absolute control through fear, intimidation, and violence.
Sounds like Biden would be more than justified to take care of Donald through an official act of the president.
I wonder what Biden would look like in a hoodie
Confused
Osama bin Laden killed around 2,977 directly and many others indirectly. Trump killed a lot more with his cuts to benefits and his abysmal covid response, and emboldening of many, many of the vilest elements of society. But guess what? He is still walking free even if he has been convicted of 34 felonies and is guilty of many others (including violent ones) and by all accounts should be spending the rest of his life in prison.
Osama was a chump compared to Trump.
The number I’ve seen is 800,000 dying due to the shitty Covid response compared to other countries. If even a fraction of that is accurate, it’s a staggering number.
Good news was supposed these were mostly his voters, but that doesn’t seem to have worked well.
I remember shortly before new years 2020, around Christmas time, Trump’s administration cut a lot of funding for Meals on Wheels programs that would have fed thousands of people. It was as if he was desperate to be the ultimate scrooge.
What a fucking asshole.
I still can’t believe that January 6th ended up meaning absolutely nothing to voters. Nothing. Wild.
If I were independently wealthy I would no shit move to another country as soon as I could possibly get my family out. This is going to be a rough four years, at an absolute, very optimistic, minimum.
If you were rich enough you could just pay to eliminate the problem entirely
If you have Any italian heritage, you can claim citizenship if you have some paperwork. We also have a nomad visa. Come on over
Eh it’ll be two years before he loses control of congress, and he’s also very, very stupid to the point where he will have a hard time accomplishing his worst ideas. Of course there will be lots of bad decisions and people dying of those bad decisions, but that’s just what we call America.
I’m still in camp “what if there’s not another presidential election that isn’t an obvious sham.”
The democratic leadership is having a helluva battle right now between the old guard and some of the younger members. The Old guard maintains Harris ran a perfect campaign and voters let them down. The most visible indicator to the general public of who won will be how the committee minority leader seats shake out. Here’s hoping they manage to win and get some change. There’s no president anchoring them down so this is usually when it happens. But if the old guard wins expect another campaign of nothing more than “Not Trump”.
They’ve been having that battle for 30 years with nothing to show for it, I don’t see what will change now.
I would have done that eight years ago.
What a god damn waste of time… Every breath this fucking idiot takes is a tragedy.
Another instance of - We knew this.
The more justice is denied, the more people will turn to vigilantism. The two attempts against Trump (so far) and the United Health CEO assassination are merely examples.
Trump is absolutely inciting violence with this act.
Wait, I thought those were liberals posing as right wingers in order to discredit the MAGA people! Now he’s going to pardon them? Whose side is he on, anyway?
He’s about to set a terrible precedent
America really likes its precedents … shit like this has to be constrained by law
Precedents. Have you heard about these? The radical antifa liberal communists have said that decisions from the past should determine laws in the fyoo-chure. Crazy. That’s cray-zy. We won’t let crooked Joe’s corrupt socialist judges decide what laws we can make. The founding fathers are dead. That’s what our failing public schools say. Possibly like Hannibal Lecter. Can someone in the crooked media fact check me?They love to fact-check me. I have the best facts. Is Hannibal Lecter dead? But the founding fathers. George Washington. Wa. Shing. Ton. What a man. 100% man. The ladies might need to cover their ears for this one, but George Washington had a tremendous hog. The biggest dick you’ve ever seen, folks. And he fucked, too. We love our founding fathers (turns around and salutes toward the back of the stage, does a stupid dance as he turns around again). George Washington wrote a little thing called the con-sti-tu-shun. You may have heard of it - crooked Joe doesn’t want you to know about it, but I love the constitution - it says that I should pardon all of the brave January 6 patriots. Many people are saying this. Democrats don’t believe in the constitution, so they won’t pardon them. Only I will pardon them. I have the best pardons. But Parton. Dolly Parton. Did you know the kids don’tknow about Dolly Parton…
I am beyond tired of hearing about this orange pile of shit’s dumbfuckery and he’s not even in office yet.
A traitor pardoning traders. What a shock!
Maybe they gave him a good price. You know how it is with these business types.
are these the traders, Walter ?
I hope it’s either written so broadly that it covers everyone in the US on that day or it’s so narrow that it only applies to like 6 people. Because that would really fit the theme of the shit show that is combining

You dropped these. …
Let’s see if he actually does. These people offer him nothing. Why would he?
Theatrics. It says to his supporters that they’re allowed to do anything they want without having to worry about the law
Ah! Now that makes sense.
