Joe Biden spent his final weeks passing out pardons as if he were the Pope handing out indulgences.
Indulgences are a way for Catholics to write off their sins. Starting in the 11th century, the church offered indulgences to those who joined the Crusades and later sold certificates of indulgences to raise funds to help build Saint Peter's Basilica.
Martin Luther had real problems with this, as it was seen (and still is today) as a kind of License to Sin. This prompted Luther to nail his 95 Thesis to the door of Castle Church in Wittenberg, in 1517. Meant as a debate, it quickly morphed into an all-out protest of the Catholic Church, and thereby led to the Reformation.
"As president, I have the great privilege of extending mercy to people who have demonstrated remorse and rehabilitation, restoring opportunity for Americans to participate in daily life and contribute to their communities, and taking steps to remove sentencing disparities for nonviolent offenders, especially those convicted of drug offenses," Biden said. (emphasis added)
The problem with this is he pardoned violent offenders, as well as people who had not been convicted of crimes, or even charged.
Some of these bonkers pardons include:
Michael Conahan, was serving a 17.5 year sentence for his part in the "kids for cash" scandal. His partner, Mark Ciavarella, is serving a 28 year sentence and was not released.
Former city comptroller Rita Crundwell, who pleaded guilty to a nearly $55 million embezzlement scheme.
37 federal death row inmates (out of 40) had their sentences commuted by Biden, including Daryl Lawrence, who was sentenced to death in the killing of Columbus police officer Bryan Hurst.
And of course, here is where we lead into the shady deal that the Big Guy pulled for the heir apparent. Remember when he promised to stay out of his son’s case?
Hunter Biden, convicted of multiple federal gun changes, as well as tax evasion charges. Joe had stated early on that he would not pardon his son.
“The charges in his cases came about only after several of my political opponents in Congress instigated them to attack me and oppose my election,” Biden said. Except that the political opponents he referred to were Democrats taking part in the revolt to oust him and install Kackles.
The pardon was for the prior 11 years, for crimes he may have committed.
Moving on to even more immoral pardons, apparently political payback to his Comrades-in-Fascism, including:
Dr. Anthony Fauci, for the prior 11 years, for crimes he may have committed. This goes back well before Biden, and even before Trump’s first term. All the way back to the Obama years. Why would Fauci need a pardon from way back then?
Fauci has not been charged with any crimes, yet the Biden cohorts expected him to be charged by the incoming Trump administration. However, this pardon (which has yet to be determined if it is Constitutional) would only cover Federal crimes. This does not touch any state-level crimes.
Currently, there are at least 17 states looking at potential charges against Fauci. Idaho’s Rep. Josh Tanner has introduced HCR5 which will enable prosecution at the state level despite the Presidential pardon.
Retired Gen. Mark Milley, was also pardoned by Biden for the prior 11 years, for crimes he may have committed. This has brought about lots of screaming as Milley seems to have admitted to Treason against the United States.
Milley’s pardon, Like Fauci’s, go back 11 years and does not cover any specific crimes. This brings up the question as to what other crimes are they hiding?
The Entire J6 Committee. This includes Liz Cheney, the members of Congress who served on the committee, their staff, and the police officers from the D.C. Metropolitan Police department or the U.S. Capitol police who testified before the committee.
Why would these people need pardons? Did the police officers knowingly lie to the committee? Did the committee knowingly break the law? Biden’s Justice Department suggested in recent court filings for Jan. 6 defendants that accepting a pardon comes with an implicit admission of guilt.
Cheney said they were pardoned “not for breaking the law but for upholding it.” Ya, that makes sense to every American: You get a pardon because you did everything right and legal.
See the full list here.
However you want to look at it, Sleepy Joe may or may not have decided on these pardons, as the speculation runs rampant as to who might have been behind the steering wheel throughout Biden’s full tenure, but we are pretty sure that it is someone with a God complex, or at least a Pope complex.
Donald J. Trump is bringing about a new Reformation. Reforming the government is the mandate of the People. Put on your Armor of God because Trump will Take No Prisoners. He will Drain the Swamp!
