I would like it if President Biden and Congress could reform the presidential pardon process to not allow pardons of self, family, and cronies.
Also, a most important clarification to federal law to make while it is still possible;
Clarify the concept "no person is above the law" versus immunity and under what conditions.
@Priestess I agree with you. Yet the ruling of the Supreme Court would seem to indicate this will never happen as they gave President Trump full immunity. We can also look to how they are treating Rudy Giuliani to realize that there are two sets of laws.
This, I believe, is keying in closer to the low voter turnout. With the dragging out of justice for his crimes, it gave credence to many voters thoughts on the disparity.
@MidnightRider And you can only imagine what it did to the disenfranchised that had little faith to begin with.
@slapout Validation of a long held suspicion. If you get a speeding ticket and have a little money, you can hire a lawyer and many times get it lowered to a tail light violation. Apparently that application of money toward laws goes all the way to the top of the spectrum if you have power and wealth.
@MidnightRider And, maybe, if you are viewed as part of that system?
@slapout @MidnightRider @Priestess
I completely agree with this assessment. Trump should have been executed for treason and mass murder. But no, America, let’s just worship him instead.
@OldCountryDoctor @slapout @Priestess A lot of what happened is because neither party wants to set a precedent that a former president goes to jail for his crimes. That would just turn into a left versus right WWF show every four years. SCOTUS sealed the deal for them. Now America has a man who looked in on teen’s dressing, raped a woman in a dressing booth, felated a microphone and said Arnold Palmer has a canon. It’s quite embarrassing and hilarious when you consider that Christians love him.
@MidnightRider @slapout @Priestess
I hate to break it to those people, but they are in no way Christian. They help elect the true Anti-Christ.
@OldCountryDoctor @slapout @Priestess One aspect of that has always made me ponder. I believe the Bible states that nobody will recognize the antichrist. Yet devout Christian seem to think they will recognize the antichrist and they are positive it is not Trump or any Republican.
@MidnightRider @OldCountryDoctor @Priestess
Bingo. We are not a nation of law and order, or compassion for our fellow neighbors equality (this was our experiment). Truth is, we are a nation ruled by wealth and "Christianity". I believe this just became more true than at any time in our history.
@slapout Amen. Our tax-free money coerces the nation in Jesus name.
@MidnightRider It's racism. I know many white people who started mentioning Christian values who were not Christian. I know Christians who started talking about race and white people ... this had nothing to do with the bible or religion it just puts a prettier face on a beast. @OldCountryDoctor @slapout @Priestess
@AnnetteTRemain @OldCountryDoctor @slapout @Priestess It’s a transparent argument because their messianic high priest is a felon.
@AnnetteTRemain @OldCountryDoctor @slapout @Priestess Just like Albert Brooks in defending your life, I would have to cringe through fingers watching portions of that highlight reel. However, I am confident that people who believe they are holy, would be in for a huge surprise.
@MidnightRider @AnnetteTRemain @OldCountryDoctor @slapout
Michael Flynn should be brought back into the Army and hauled in front of a military tribunal, along with his brother and any others who got the call on Jan 6 at the Pentagon.
The acting Sec Def at the time should have been arrested and tried immediately.
The US was attacked
DJT should have been immediately arrested and tried.
I know.... none of what I want is ever going to happen.
That's why there needs to be clarifying language now.
@Priestess Agree they never should have let him get as far as he did. @MidnightRider @OldCountryDoctor @slapout
@AnnetteTRemain The judicial system let us down, the country is broken, I am going to hope for the best.
@MidnightRider they're part of the judicial system. Unfortunately. And they will only get more embedded this next time around.
@AnnetteTRemain All I can do is my best for myself and those I love and hope for the best. They are going to get all 3 branches, we have to accept that and live boldly.
@MidnightRider That is how they got the branches. We need to stop playing into their hands. Put good people in and try to root bad people out. If we just attack everyone in an institution because "it shouldn't be this way" we will lose every single time.
@AnnetteTRemain We have plenty of time to regroup. The Democrats best retool for the midterms and clean house.
@MidnightRider And all we do is discourage our own from joining institutions. We WANT ours in institutions to offset the bad ones or at least try to bring things back in balance.
@MidnightRider Now I am not denying that Christians allow people to hide behind their skirts and tarnish the religion. That definitely happens and it's shameful. Not only are they not following what they profess to follow but they are giving it a bad name and turning people away which is working against loving others and being a fisher of men. They also have the grifters and snake oil televangelists. @OldCountryDoctor @slapout @Priestess
@AnnetteTRemain @OldCountryDoctor @slapout @Priestess Yep, and they would have a much more cogent point if they cleaned their own house first.
@slapout Dragging out = full exoneration. I can’t see how that is good for this country. It certainly breaks my faith in the system completely.
