Biden issues pre-emptive pardons in final hours for Anthony Fauci, Liz Cheney, Milley and others

A certain irrationality exists in this belief. If one has the view you describe, there is no room for reflection or analysis in the debate. It takes on the shape of political creed.
Wouldn't a Court and Judge make sentencing determinations?.
Some of us were discussing Hillary Clinton's mishandling of confidential communications earlier. In that instance, FBI Director Comey basically said Hillary violated the law, but didn't think the case should be pursued.
Then of course, there was the recent pardon of Hunter Biden by his father.
So you see, you have recent examples of other politicians or their families not being prosecuted or given prison sentences.
Accusations are one thing. Convictions before a jury of your peers is entirely different.
The European union was pushing Biden to do exactly the same. They wanted this prosecutor fired for the same reason Biden did - this dude would not go after corruption.
Is the EU on the same kool-aid?
Hopefully we're about to see another former president facing felonies....
Comer had 2 years to find corruption in Biden. He found nothing except his dumb-ass was played by a Russian agent.
That doesn't require constitutional expertise.
It's just a fact that the decision was made already.
Now, this Supreme Court has shown it is perfectly happy to overturn previous decisions, but that doesn't change the fact that a decision was made.
They've been quite explicit about their corruption and their intent to have lots of it.
That's part of what "Make America Great Again" is all about.
In their view, there already is corruption, and the problem is that they aren't getting enough advantage from it personally.
So they need to fix that.
"The violent ones won't be pardoned" was the fake reasonable position people were trying to take because just releasing everyone made some people uncomfortable.JD vance lied that The Jan 6th Violent Insurrectionists should not be pardoned:
JD Vance says violent Jan. 6 rioters shouldn't receive pardons
Vice President-elect JD Vance said Sunday who he thinks should and shouldn’t receive presidential pardons for their actions during the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.www.nbcwashington.com
They don't need to pretend anymore.
I was directing my comment to them. This partisan view that Republican politicians are the only ones to ever be guilty of corruption or other crimes is a certain type of absurdity.
Yes, and I am surprised to see you stretching to find reasons to try and push for its overturning that have plausible cover and deniability.
You're usually much more straightforward.
If you think it is bad and the constitutional interpretation should be changed, just say so, don't hem and haw with pretending to not know if it has really been decided or what not.
Just say that you think people disagree now and so the rule should be changed and interpreted a new way.
I'm not pushing for anything. Let the Supreme Court decide. They will decide if mothers who enter the country illegally can guarantee citizenship for their children.
Regardless of the Court's decision, I don't really see any political ramifications for Trump. Do you know any Moderate Democrats? I would find it it hard to believe they are concerned about this. Some issues are just media-driven.

This is what I am talking about.
The Supreme Court has decided.
You are asking "bring it back and see if it can get overturned".
Why be coy?
Also, you know that Trump's executive order is not limited to "mothers who enter the country illegally".
I actually suspect lots of people care about this more than you realize.
But it is also very possible that the mood of the country is simply one where they want the Constitution re-interpreted.
One problem I do see with that is that if that is the mood of the country, then restricting it only to babies born after February 19, 2025 is going to cause some backlash.
