    Lol. Who cares?

    The dipshit incoming president literally threatened to go after his political opponents. That’s all the justification Biden needed to pardon his son.

    And to be clear, that incoming president is a convicted felon and adjudicated RAPIST who incited an insurrection and illegally attempted to overturn an election.

    The justice system is a joke.

    Who the fuck cares if Biden pardons his son for non-violent crimes?

    Why the fuck are we STILL holding Democrats to a higher standard when we hold Republicans to literally no standard?

      Where exactly are we holding Demecrats to a higher standard?

      One thing I actually noticed reading news and reading articles in politics is that almost everyone who could criticize Trump did it, even for free.

      Artists did it, journalists did it, scientists did it, actors did it and even normal people did it.

      Where is the higher standard you are talking about?

      You are basically are asking for people to not talk about corruption at this stage.

        There’s criticizing, and then there’s running a business and using your office to increase its profits, holding your ally’s defense supplies hostage if they don’t help you politically, claiming an election was stolen and inciting a riot over it, holding (and refusing to return) documents to which he has zero personal ownership, appointing your family to high-level jobs in your orbit…

        Seriously, you thought this was just about criticism?
