The “Rule of Law” doesn’t apply because this is (D)ifferent!
When MAGA cultists complain about a “weaponized justice system,” remind them that President Biden has refused to show favoritism towards his son because he has a commitment to the rule of law and our judicial system, regardless of who is involved.https://t.co/uDXcsOjYXf

Ummm, not quite. Is anyone still surprised at this point?
Now that the pardon has been announced, let’s just look forward to when Hunter and any others to follow start singing like canaries.
Democrats are corrupt to the core and the voters who supported them are exposed as being out of touch with reality more with each passing day.
Try to make it through this menagerie of hypocrisy (below) to the end and count how many times they reaffirm how superior they are over Trump, Republicans and their voters because they are so truthful and always follow the rule of law:
In the clip, I counted 19 instances where they brought up the contrast (key word of the day) between the noble, rule-of-law adherence of Saint Biden, compared to the disgruntled threats to democracy of Trump. I can understand Biden’s change of heart – except that he always intended to do so and continued to lie about it.
But, what I find completely nauseating is the media’s constant, holier-than-thou superiority complex on any topic before them – that always crashes in flames. Yet they keep it up thinking people still listen to them.
Of course, their solution is to simply deny that Biden lied and all of their faithful unthinking drones will eagerly nod along in agreement – while once again belittling anyone who does not follow along. It is getting exceedingly tiresome.
Charlamagne tha God explains from his recent appearance on The View:
“I think all of the criticism is valid because Democrats stand on this moral high ground all the time and, you know, they act so self-righteous, with their holier-than-thou rhetoric. They’re the ones that go out there and they stand on moral high ground. They don’t have to do that.”
Actually, I’ve changed my mind, Trump should go after and jail each and every one of these admitted hypocrites.
Tone deaf headline of the year:
Hurt Obama Bros Whine About Biden’s
Pardon of Hunter – ‘Now Everyone Looks Stupid’
NOW??? Again, this is not a surprise to those of us paying attention, but once again exposes the incomprehension of the terminally misinformed mentioned above. To them, we’ve just come full circle and this will just evolve from the laptop that didn’t exist to a newer revised crimes that don’t exist, as they plod along into oblivion.
“When you become president, your role is to put the nation first, and here we have a president who is putting his family first. It also shows a degree of contempt for the American people,… He didn’t just simply lie about not ever speaking to his son’s business associates, of never being in meetings with them. He lied repeatedly to the American people when he was a candidate for reelection.” – Jonathon Turley
More on that…
The president has discussed pardoning his son with some of his closest aides at least since Hunter Biden’s conviction in June, said two people with direct knowledge of the discussions about the matter. They said it was decided at the time that he would publicly say he would not pardon his son even though doing so remained on the table. – NBC
SO, it was a conscious decision to BS the public and even those “in the know” are admitting it. He knew it could hurt his reelection chances, so they decided he would simply lie rather than admit what was happening behind the scenes.
With that, let’s recall this tasty quote from 2018 that will soon be buried – because that’s what they do:
“The Congress ought to know whether the president is using the pardon power to obstruct justice. The American people have a right to know. This legislation is clearly constitutional. It doesn’t prohibit him from granting a pardon, even a pardon he shouldn’t grant, but it does say we will be able to at least find out whether the president is using this power to shield himself from liability and offers transparency, at the very least.” – Adam Schiff
1/22:
And now, after preemptively pardoning the rest of his crime syndicate, the flaming hypocrisy reappears. Review, what these same deranged experts were saying 4 years ago, when Trump DIDN’T pardon his family and individuals as they are projecting – while Biden clearly had no such reservations.
Hypocrisy and dishonesty are the only constants with liberals. If they didn’t have double standards, they wouldn’t have any standards at all. Regardless of their flaming hypocrisy, this action prompts 2 concerns:
- The pardon covers a wide sweeping smorgasbord of criminal activity going back 11 years – crimes already charged and convicted, but also anything not yet discovered. What else are they hiding besides sloppy Joe’s involvement in the schemes?
- Why now? We all knew it was coming but I would have expected it to happen in January – much closer to the end of his term. Was this a trial balloon for dozens of other deep state offenders who are staring down well deserved justice under the new administration? Will we see a daily deluge of additional sweeping pardons for all of those bad actors who got off scot free? In doing so, he’ll blame Trump for having to do it. He’ll claim that because Trump wants “retribution,” he has to pardon people (and himself) to protect them and the country from such evil. It’ll be for our own good, he’ll tell us, for the good of the nation, to stop Trump and protect democracy.
I guess executing it now stops Hunters sentencing coming up in a week or so, but it also exposes a flaw in their plan.
With the pardon end date of 12/1, anything that happens from now on is fully chargeable and with the expected inquiries and congressional investigations of their misdeeds not even starting yet, they may have miscalculated. As Mike Davis mentions above, any of those pardoned will still be obligated to appear and testify. They may not be charged for the crimes they committed previously, but those crimes will still be investigated and they can be convicted for contempt, perjury, and numerous other offenses they commit during those proceedings. After seeing grandmas sentenced to prison for touring the capital, you can be damn sure each and every offense will be rung all the way through the wringer. And sloppy Joe will be out of office and powerless to stop them by then.
This will greatly assist in the real truth being exposed once and for all.
Can you imagine how that scenario will play out? All those pardoned will be mandated to appear and testify. They cannot plead the 5th. They can’t be charged for their crimes but they will need to reveal the truth or face the consequences, which will surely be imprisonment – just like it was for Bannon and Navarro and wasn’t for Hunter and others with a (D) by their name who committed the exact same offenses.
In the end, this is just the icing on the cake. The best takeaway?
Joe Biden is leaving office making the strongest possible case for Donald Trump that anybody could possibly make it, and that’s that our government and our justice system is of, by, and for the elites and nobody else. He ran to banish Trumpism from our political system in this country and he has left it politically and now institutionally the strongest possible political force in this country. It is a complete and utter failure by the President of the United States, the Democratic party and those that continue to support them.
