You have to remember that shrimptacodan is not from the US.

He actually wants this country to fail and hates US veterans.

Kind of like Elon actually.

I say do it.

Slash the benefits heavily.

This is what veterans voted for by large majorities.

It would be wrong not to honor what they supported.

Not apparently but you are ignorant. American elects it's president based on the electoral college not based on the popular vote (which Trump also won) And 312-226 is an ass kicking.

Bless your heart.

Keep telling yourself that.

- Donald Trump Pardoned his political allies under investigation for crimes related to the charges against himself, protecting himself from charges

Whats interesting about a pardon, is that the person accepting the pardon cannot plead the 5th.
So I am not sure your assertion makes any sense, it wouldn't protect someone it would make them a liability.
That being said, you literally are the stupidest person I have ever seen post.

Wrong again.

Because there are still potential state charges, they can easily plead the 5th.

Also questionable as to whether or not one can be pardoned before any charges are brought against an individual, let alone fond guilty. This is one for the SCOTUS to decide.

No.

Just no.

Not even remotely a question.

Have you seen what this thread is about? It's about preempted pardons for Democrats. Why would they need a pardon if no crimes were committed?

Because you don't need to commit a crime to be charged with a crime.

" This is a pardon, after all, and the Supreme Court's ruling in Burdick v. United States establishes that accepting a pardon carries with it "an imputation of guilt and acceptance of a confession of it." If the Biden White House issued these pardons, they'd be doing the Trump administration's work for them by branding them criminals in some ill-defined way."

This is why you don't let non-lawyers write about the law.

In Burdick v. US (1915), that part about imputation of guilt was dictum. It was NOT part of the ruling nor established as law.

In Lorrance v. Commandant, USDB, the 10th circuit said the complete opposite and that was part of the ruling, a key part in fact.

So as of right now, there is no clear legal ruling on whether a Pardon carries an imputation of guilt or acceptance of a confession other than the Lorrance decision.

Cool enjoy your $20 scoop of ice cream.

Facts: A lot of places pay $18 an hour and the cost difference in the food is negligible.

25 cents more, not $20.

Republicans would support Trump doing this.

We aren't South Korea.
