    It seems impossible but none of this will phase ppl.

    I used to think voting rights and education reform were two of the best things that can be done to unfuck America, but mass regulation of social media platforms is up there.

    and the media just posts trumps quotes on twitter and puts videos on tv without bothering to fact check or refute the obvious lies. If he is stretching the truth, that’s fine. When it’s an obvious lie that is easily refutable with known facts, a journalist who chooses not to fact check is lazy, a coward, really shitty at their job or more than one of those.

    I know trump can’t pardon on non-federal crimes but can he offer a blanket pardon for any and all crimes? Or does it have to be for a specific crime? Can he pardon himself if it’s for something illegal outside of his duties as president?

    Follow-up question: Since we're pleading ignorance here, how fucking stupid do you have to be to believe that a private fundraiser is going to help facilitate the US government building a wall on the Southern border if your father, the President, can't already do it himself?

    actually it says on the justice department website that a president pardoning himself is “a question for the office of legal council” so basically bill barr can claim he has that power and he can pardon himself. That would likely get fought in courts. Nixon way of doing it is an option.

    I just read a few articles on it and it seems like he can pardon “for any and all federal crimes they may have committed” for people like family and friends and say “so corrupt joe doesn’t abuse his powers to get back at me” or some other lie so MAGA still thinks he’s the law and order guy. If he loses, only his reputation can be hurt by doing that and not with his MAGA fanboys. It could hurt his ability to maintain a grip on the party though and hurt his chance to run again in 2024.

    he would have to name specific crimes and they would be admitting guilt if pardon is accepted?

    next week is going to be something
    here comes the Republican Party’s national convention, a chance to perhaps reset the terms of the debate and give those swing suburban voters a chance to reconsider their choices. And who does Trump get on the speaker’s list?

    These assholes, who waved panicky guns as a protest marched peacefully on the street in front of their mansion.

    [​IMG]
    Mark and Patricia McCloskey.
    In fact, they are such monumental assholes that, well, I’ll just use Mark Sumner’s summary:

    Mark McCloskey isn’t just the kind of raging a-hole who is hated by all of his neighbors, he’s not just a guy who has sued his own sister and his own father, he’s also a guy who did this: He destroyed bee hives on a neighbor’s property and left behind a note not only admitting that he did it, but threatening to sue if they didn’t clean up the mess promptly. That neighbor was a Jewish synagogue which had planned to use the honey for Rosh Hashanah. “The children were crying in school,” said Rabbi Susan Talve. “It was part of our curriculum.”

    You can see why Trump would take a liking to them, right?

    These hoes ain't loyal.

    Ashley Kolfage, 34, insisted she does not follow her husband Brian Kolfage’s social media campaigns and political activism, which led to his indictment on fraud charges in the Southern District of New York on Thursday.

    “I don’t follow any of his social media stuff. I don’t follow any of his political stuff, I am completely far away from any of that,” Ashley said.

    This is copy and pasted from fords pardon of Nixon



    Now, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the United States, pursuant to the pardon power conferred upon me by Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, have granted and by these presents do grant a full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9,1974


    this would lead me to believe that he could pardon people for unlisted crimes they may have committed during a broad range of years. I don’t see why he couldn’t pardon his kids and kushner for 10 years of crimes for example. He can’t pardon for state crimes but this would lead me to believe he can issue broad ranging pardons. The negative would be the media perception. If trump really wanted to run again in 2024, it would ruin that chance as his credibility would be shot. If he just wants to start trump tv and do rallys, I think he can legally do it.
