I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:
-
Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.
-
Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.
-
Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.

Regardless, I wonder if he should get a presidential pardon for doing his job - we don’t need the chilling affect of the justice system used for him personal spite or revenge
The president can't issue future pardons.
Has one ever tried? With the current Supreme Court?
So waste of fucking time and money.
How so? I'm trying to understand if you think these charges didn't warrant an investigation in the first place, or you are only saying this in hindsight of Trump's reelection.
It was all bluster, and ultimately, no one was held to account except for the littlest guys. Most of them probably moments away from full pardons. I'm just hoping they do enough damage and leave us enough to build back from. If we manage to get through it and even if the next person is 8 years a democrat it will ultimately be more of the same divisive bullshit. I'm just ready to watch it all burn at this point. If he can't be held accountable, it's all fucked and a waste. Just a mirage to calm the plebs while the rich and powerful get to do whatever they want. That's not the America I was sold.
It wasn't bluster, it was effort. You're making that determination based on hindsight. If trump hadn't won, which they can't control, then progress would have continued.
Most of them probably moments away from full pardons
You're crazy if you think trump will actually pardon his followers. He hates them. He'll only pardon people who can pay him.
Oh, that’s the complaint?
