Joe Biden has pardoned his siblings and their spouses on his way out of the White House. Biden said Monday his family had been “subjected to unrelenting attacks and threats, motivated solely by a desire to hurt me.”

Another thing to rub in vote MAGA crowd.

They can not complain when Trump does the same to Kushner and Bevis and Butthead.

    Bevis and Butthead

    On the one hand I want to defend my cartoon dirtbags from this terrible association.

    On the other hand, I laughed out loud.

    I don’t want to be too much of a pedant, but it is different, it’s not likely any of these people did anything besides Hunter. Unless it comes out these people actually did anything, comparing Hunter to Kushner is a fair comparison, but preemptively pardoning your family because you think they are gonna get persecuted because they are related to you is pretty unprecedented. I don’t really fault sleepy for this, what’s the alternative letting Trump groundlessly put your family in courts and make a media spectacle out of it.

      I’d say it’s one heck of an admission they did treasonous acts. How does one uphold a pre-pardon? Like is that even constiutional? The 2014 date is glaring. It screams Maidan coup and after.

      Definitely worth exploring WTF is Biden’s family hiding? I hope they expose it anyways.
