America: running for president is the get out of jail card, because all levels of government are afraid to be seen as partisan/political
You guys should’ve stopped pussy-footing around in the first place. Prosecute him now.
Lay that blame at Gutless Merrick Garland’s feet.
Seriously, if he’s got 2 months before being king FUCKING DO IT NOW.
They won’t. There’s no point. The Trump SCOTUS will throw anything they do out. The only thing that Biden could do is use the powers SCOTUS granted the presidency to round them up, throw them in a gulag, and declare the election null and void. And he won’t do that.
Because that will ensure a civil war. We might get it anyway, but that would just accelerate it.
He fucken got away with it
So said we all. We knew he wouldn’t face justice.
If the rule of law doesn’t apply to him then does the rule of law apply at all? It makes it all seem meaningless when you look at it.
This just further cements that there are multiple different levels of law depending on your money/wealth/power/influence. Any normal individual does this, with this much proof, and they would’ve seen the inside of a jail cell before the cuff-marks faded away.
Always has been, always will be.
Clavell’s novel Noble House woke me to this. It’s about the English occupying Hong Kong and the drama between them and the Chinese, the cultures and economies.
This Chinese dude is bitching about the fucking stupid English notion of “equal before the law, rich or poor”.
“Why else would I strive to be rich if I’m to be treated as a peasant?!”
Much to think on there.
(Clavell wrote the Asia Saga books, starting with Shogun. I highly recommend them.)
Guys guys…I think we have a loophole. We can crime so long as we have a PAC and run for president.
It may be unethical to parden yourself, but the founding fathers didn’t make it illegal so…
This isnt the last word. Smith is working out “the appropriate course for this case”, and the judge is giving him until Dec 2. We will hear from him again, before Trump takes office.
He’s a smart guy, he may figure out a way to make these last few months interesting.
The Friday news dump returns.
