Pardoned them for nothing, because those are state crimes, that dumb motherfucker
Mmmm pretty sure the Supreme Court said the president can do whatever the fuck they want. Did I say president? I meant orange burger king
Can pardons be undone by the next president?
If we ever get a non- shitstain Nazi trash government, I want all these rat fucks to go back to jail where they belong. Hell, send them to the detention facilities they've been making (aka concentration camps) since they like those things so much...
next president ? Lmao bless your heart
He won't live forever, and the power vacuum will be legendary
Can pardons be undone by the next president?
No. If you were pardoned or had your sentence commuted it can't be reversed.
I saw Rudy Giuliani in there also, lol. Didnt take very long for that bastard to be out again.
He's still facing state charges
Well now they can't hide behind the 5th ammendment if the time ever comes to talk about Trump's involvement
I'd love that, but he's buying their loyalty and everyone knows it - the co-conspirators can do nothing and probably nothing will happen to them, or they can betray him (i.e., not betray the Constitution and country), and risk some kind of retribution through him or his sycophants. They'll choose option #2.
And beyond that, even if Trump leaves office without a civil war, he will pardon himself the last day, I guarantee it. The Supreme Court with its executive immunity decision already laid the groundwork to reject challenges to even blatantly illegal self-pardons.
I want nothing more than Trump to be punished for any of his crimes. But it certainly won't happen in his lifetime and probably neither in ours.
Beyond that, accepting a pardon is legally an admission of guilt. So, as undisputed insurrectionists, they're all now ineligible for public office.
Assuming, that is, that the Constitution still applies…
We all knew he'd do this since Day 1 of him taking office.
frankly surprised it took him 10 months
I kind of assumed he’d thrown them under the bus like the parade of sycophants that he used up and dumped during his first term.
What’s coming is worse than prison anyway
I thought he'd already done this.
