I don't know, maybe I'm giving the Dems way too much 3D chess credit, but making the Voting Rights bill the first one in the Senate sure as hell looks like them setting a "Sure we're willing to work with Republicans on bipartisan legislation" trap that's going to immediately end with a nerfed or nuked filibuster. I don't know how else to interpret that. I think the GA races have some people in the party energized to get this shit done.
Unless you actually work for the CIA/FSB/Mossad, it's just about impossible to hide your true intentions. Humans are just too desperate for validation of their worldview. And to actually convincingly pull off that "double agent" con requires you to engage with and internalize "the enemy's lies" to a degree that's inconceivable to a proud ideologue.
The shorter answer is people are too fucking stupid to keep up a ruse like that. The only person we're capable of fooling is ourselves.
He was saying goodbye to Delaware and remembering his late son Beau
I'm guessing he'll pardon his family and some people that are either really close to him or supported his campaign hard and at the same time screw over a bunch of other republicans expecting a pardon.
I'm going to laugh so hard if Giuliani gets left out in the cold
Damn, yeah :(
From clips I've seen, like this one from today, and for example the one of him comforting the son of a father who died from (what, if I remember correctly, was) a school shooting, Biden shows a depth of emotional maturity that we DESPERATELY need male examples and leadership on in this country. This fake machismo and toxic masculinity that Trump has emboldened and supposedly exemplifies needs to go.
It's a national security issue at this point. Jan 6th proved that. When you're needing to call neighboring states to send in their National Guard because you don't have one, that's a problem to say the least.
The sooner the Senate nukes the filibuster to get it passed, the better. It's long past time for the taxed residents of Douglas Commonwealth to have representation.
Is this true? Seems hard to believe. Someone has to be in the room and witness to the pardons don't they? He has to submit them somewhere?
Wow, Trump actually thinking about being held to account for his actions. I think Trump just became president in his last 24 hours! WOOOOO!
🤣
The first half of the article doesn't sound like Trump at all. Since when does he care about "perception"? He really only cares about the Senate having him by the balls now, which they cover in the closing paragraphs.
Definitely was cringing at the applause she got for _changing her mind_ about objecting to the election results after she _lost her job_ and the capitol was invaded by her party
It's not just perception here, pardons would open up other avenues in litigation and investigation already against him.
No idea to be honest. Lawrence O'Donnell mentioned it recently.
I'm not so sure it would.
I say we just indict people and find out, though.
Every time I commit a crime I always get on the record after the fact talking about how bad that crime is. I'm untouchable.
I see Fox News is right back on track with its usual programming and Bullshit
How do we take down this shit hole thorn in America's side? Even without Trump this network is going to continue feedin the birds
Fuck this racist. Can he even block him going to a vote if Dems control the Senate?
I always thought the fleeing the country thing some people were saying was a joke, but with no self-pardons and all the loan debt he has coming due I wouldn't be surprised if he makes an extended stay out of the country. Dumb ass probably is stupid enough to think he is shielded from indictments at Trump Turnberry in Scotland. "I'm not in the US, so they can't touch me, very legal and very cool" -Trump a day before he gets extradited probably.
You know, I'm pretty sure it's time to go after these groups with the same vigor that we used against Al Qaeda and ISIS.
Can Biden unseal them? It would be weird that a president can declassify whatever he/she wants, but couldn't reveal a predecessor's secret pardons.
You know Garland and his posse already have plans made for all of this.
I saw an article yesterday that Trump has basically blocked off accessing any records from his administration to Biden
Here's the article and tweet
