but why?
doing this has to open some kind of legal loophole, otherwise the administration wouldn’t be doing it.
What is left to clear? Nixon literally got pardoned by Ford.
The only way to make it clearer is if you remove the indictment. Maybe that’s what Trump is trying to set up? Remove the idea that Nixon even did anything wrong? To pave the path for his impeachments can be “removed”?
It’s a blatant “flood the zone with shit”, dead cat on the table type move. None of them care about Nixon, they just care that you’re talking about something that isn’t releasing the Epstein Files.
Unironicly, Nixon did nothing wrong so I didn’t do anything wrong.
We must undo this travesty of justice, where the law was once applied to a powerful white man.
Well, almost applied. They let him off the hook in exchange for resigning. But still! Any consequences at all cannot be allowed to stand!
He resigned and then he was immediately pardoned by Ford. What’s Trump going to do, pardon Nixon a second time??
Accepting a pardon is an admission of guilt.
Trump is trying to rewrite history so that Nixon’s acts are considered normal presidential behavior instead of criminal corruption.
That’s not settled law. From your own link (emphasis mine):
Although the Supreme Court’s opinion stated that a pardon carries “an imputation of guilt and acceptance of a confession of it,”[2] this was part of the Court’s dictum for the case.[4] Whether the acceptance of a pardon constitutes an admission of guilt by the recipient is disputed.
To be fair, it would be normal for trump. He’s done worse and got away with it.
Some dumbass “super duper secret double pardon” this whole administration is so fucking stupid, and unfortunately super astute at evil
Guess they are getting low on material to take peoples minds off the Epstein files. It is not going to work (for me at least).
Okay, our minds are on the epstien files. Now what?
Up to the americans. So far they have done squat having a convicted felon, child rapist and the list goes on. Seems like they are ok with it since all I see is avarice and avoidance.
LOL awesome! Tricky Dick is my favorite kind of dick 😂😉
I prefer mine spotted.
I prefer Dick Van Dyke
Dick Grayson for me
I actually am surprised they are still on the Nixon kick. He supported the 1968 Gun Control Act, also was quoted as saying “I don’t see why anybody has a right to a handgun in their home”. He wanted to ban “Saturday Night Specials”, and further flirted with a full ban on handguns. He also created and promoted the EPA. Pretty sure there are lots of things that today’s MAGats would lose their mind over.
Yes, but Trump is anti- gun rights.
True, but he kinda waffles on that like everything else, so maga will argue that he is for gun rights. They will justify any position Trump takes, and I guess they may do that for Nixon, of all people.
the boomers pulling the strings havent moved past it, is all
Its the 1% vs the working class, not generation vs generation.
boomers have all the $
‘When your rich, they let you do it’
He will do whatever he likes until enough American decide to put a stop to it. Simple as that.
Turds of a feather shock forever
Birds of a shit feather Randy.
“Randels, we got some shitburds to dunk Raners… …Now less gets over there and do a mrurgurrpfff… .zzzzzz…”
“Mr. Lahey, are you okay? You promised me we’d get some greasy cheeseburgers, but you fell asleep on the fuckin’ loveseat again…”
It’s not shocking, I know… I probably should’ve went with “flock endeavour” or “mock whenever” or “smock in fowl weather” or whatever
… But those don’t sound as good,
nor is as clever
How about “turds of a feather float together”? You know, like the surprise log at pool
In “Holy Grail” the Python crew does a whole bit about a person with a bright orange nose floating in water (albeit in comparison to wood)
…which brings me to my demands for the liberation of The United States Of America…
…Trump must be dunked (in Boston Harbor) & carted off to prison until his natural end of life (no comunicato)
What an utter contempt for the rule of law. I suppose judge’s rulings are just an opinion that can be changed at any point in the future when they feel like it?
This is what happens when you let a criminal run the government.
I mean yeah, he’s done way worse and is still in office
