Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Monday, June 08, 2026

After vastly underqualified acting USAG Todd Blanche said the controversial "weaponization" fund to pay Jan 6 lunatics would "not be moving forward," good-for-nothing still-in-the-closet Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) noted that the aggrieved have always had a pathway for extracting lucrative settlements from the nefarious Trumpf junta, like the way treacherous PV1 Michael Flynn received a generous dollop of American taxpayer dollars after he betrayed the United States of America.

  • "We have a legal system already in place for disloyal miscreants to make profitable claims against the government. That does not need to be reinvented," posted the Islamophobic warmonger on 2 June, encouraging violent white supremacists to pursue settlements under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA).

    Muslim hater Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has also helped destroy the American economy by encouraging the illegal war against Iran on behalf of Israel which has turned into a bankrupting quagmire. Good-for-no-one Lindsey Graham ranks atop the list of US power-brokers who have done the absolute least for everyday Americans while padding their own over-generous congressional or federal pensions, like Mitch McConnell, John Fetterman, Marco Rubio, and a sickening claque of other selfish dinosaurs.

    This warmonger has helped destroy the American economy, defended and confirmed good-for-nothing reactionary SCOTUS
    Brett Kavanaugh to become a SCOTUS Justice, and over the decades has done NOTHING to bring universal healthcare to all Americans.

    Now this nauseating Dixie doofus wants Jan 6 insurrectionists to file lucrative claims against the US government.

    One AI sweep suggests that good-for-nothing Lindsey Graham's (70) combined Senatorial pension and USAF retirement pay could be as high as $200,000 per year.

    Remarkable.

    So bizarre (not really) how MAGA hates paying taxes, but loves spending them and giving them away.

    Southern Belle Lindsay is looking for a payout for himself.

    The better news is that if Miss Lindsay's support is as good as it was in the primary he will have plenty of free time to look absolutely ------- creepy at Disney World.

    Had Biden not preemptively pardoned every one of the people who had anything to do with the prosecution of these people, you may have an argument.

    BTW the people who accepted the pardons made an admission of guilt in doing so.

    " Had Biden not preemptively pardoned every one of the people who had anything to do with the prosecution of these people, you may have an argument."

    Had Trump not threatened them with lawfare AFTER he won reelection and before his re-inauguration, you might have a point.

    However, James, Comey and Leticia James prove Trump was always about lawfare.

    Meanwhile, Trump still has 34 felony convictions.

    And you can't name a single piece of lawfare committed against him. You can't name a single one of the roughly 90 indictments which you or I could do without fear of legal repercussions.

    That they were rightfully convicted. But they weren't because everyone who participated in that prosecution admitted they were guilty upon accepting that pardon.

    Is that bad?
    Because Trump sues to keep his secrets too.
    So I guess that makes it okay.

    GFY liar.

    Biden a good man. Biden is now retired. And he has every right (as every Citizen does) to protect himself from the hateful overreach of the fat piggy Trumpy's revenge and retribution tour.

    BTW- just another magafied lie.

    Accepting a pardon does not require the recipient to formally confess to the crime or stipulate to any specific facts in court. Federal appeals courts have explicitly ruled that accepting clemency is not an official legal confession.

    Many pardons even include specific language that acceptance does not acknowledge wrongdoing or admit guilt.

    " Shut up "

    What a riot.

    I'm not the one pretending Trump never said the words that came out of his mouth.

    Trump promised what we now know is lawfare AFTER the election and BEFORE the Inauguration.

    You look like an idiot, pretending that doesn't matter.

    You two clowns do realize that there are still people sitting in prison that Biden tried to pardon, right? They wouldn't accept because they refused to give up their innocence.

    " If they weren't guilty, they wouldn't need a pardon."

    Fake charges cost six figures to defend against.

    Trump's DOJ is filing cases they know they can't win. That's LAWFARE.

    And look at the moron, pretending it's free to the falsely accused.

    I don't see how they're guilty of anything.
    They wer not determined to be guilty in a court of law.
    They weren't even charged.

    What's that got to do with anything?
    Those people were found guilty in court.
    The people you're saying are guilty were never found guilty at trial.

    They were guilty of standing up against Trumpy's heinous lies.

    If Trumpy was not threatening to weaponize the DOJ for polio purposes against his perceived enemies they would not have needed a pardoned. Biden would not even had to considered it without Trumpy's threats of revenge and retribution.
