George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said Monday the language in President Joe Biden’s pardon of his son, Hunter, is historically “unprecedented.”
Biden formally issued a “full and unconditional pardon” for Hunter regarding any crime he is charged of or may have committed since 2014, including any potential charges regarding an alleged influence peddling-scheme during his time on a now-defunct Ukrainian gas company’s board. Turley told Fox News’ Martha MacCallum that there has never been any language resembling Biden’s pardon seen in previous pardons which showed a “breathtaking act of contempt for the American people.”
“The language of this pardon is virtually unprecedented,” Turley said. “I mean, [former President Richard] Nixon was very, very broad. But we’ve never seen anything like this. [Biden is] literally pardoning his son for any crime that he may have committed during these years. Everything from money laundering to murder. Now he could be charged with state offenses, but the statutes of limitations have largely run on those offenses. So it’s a really breathtaking act of contempt for the American people and it has happened over and over again.” more
the ****** in the yt-hut came thru for humper
also @ 1100: & for itself
What a legacy to have the bookends of your one term failed presidency be Donald J Trump.
“So it’s a really breathtaking act of contempt for the American people…”
…well, the fact that he STARTED his fraudulent “presidency” with a blatant steal done under color of medical tyranny was “a really breathtaking act of contempt for the American people” right from the beginning, so I dont know who would have expected anything different at its end, or why…
Biden’s best hope for a legacy is to keep the crime family out of prison.
Don’t blink, it’s gonna get wild before inauguration day.
Despite all the screaming from conservatives, media and talking heads this pardon is not that unique.
The Supreme Court has made clear that, subject to the exception for impeachment, the president’s power to grant pardons is “unlimited,” with virtually no oversight or limiting role for Congress.
They were mostly legal crimes Hunter committed.
The whole thing is null and void. Ex ante is the opposite of ex post facto, it implies free rein for the bastard to commit any crime imaginable through 2024 with impunity. That is simply and obviously not acceptable to anyone other than an idiot’s idiot. It sets this fucking reprobates up as being on another plane from every other individual and that on its face is not anything that can be allowed. It would allow future Presidents to basically turn a crime syndicate loose with absolute impunity. Not that the Biden family hasn’t been operating as such, but to have the law behind them, instead of just ignored is next level shit. It is third world bullshit and can’t be tolerated.
“George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said ..that there has never been any language resembling Biden’s pardon..”
Turley is clearly oblivious to Potatohead’s claim that he graduated #1 in his class at Law Skewl.
What is more, the stupid son of a bitch just took the Fifth Amendment of the table. His reprobate son can’t say he has protection from self incrimination because he has blanket immunity and nothing he could possibly say would self incriminate. It is self evident this is the case. He either opens up on every facet of the Biden Crime Family operation or Is in contempt.
What if some Ukrainian prosecutor happens to get pressured to go after Hunter unless funding dries up.
“Never seen anything like this”.
I’ve had those same words and thoughts for 4 years.
A done deal with the help of our great, powerful and crooked DOJ gang working behind their Kevlar curtain in the dark. Russia must be proud.
Don’t kid yourselves, we didn’t get here without a lot of help from republicans in congress.

‘“Never seen anything like this”.

Most of the history of human governance is a story of momarchs, oligarchs, committees and syndicates ruling others with laws they carefully place themselves above first.
Rex Lex is the historical norm.
Lex Rex is much rarer by far.
Pedo Joe is really not that uncommon historically. He is simply what ALL attemts at human governance devolve into sooner or later…
Biden is the apex in American history of political corruption and incompetence – along with the alphabet media. Some compare him to carter, but carter was not corrupt – just a joke of a leader. There needs to be a commission to look into all the biden dealings, so this pond scum of a family never reaches any power again.

There isn’t a single one of the Republican establishment that wouldn’t pull the exact same type of shit if they thought they could get away with it. Not a single one.
Biden pardons should not be valid because he is a usurper and not a properly elected president.
I’m guessing Hunter is going to self-destruct with drugs.
“Biden formally signed a “full and unconditional pardon” for Hunter ”
FIFY
It’s not like Joe wrote it himself.
I’m surprised Joe didn’t name himself and his entire family in the pardon…
e. dick-holder said 4473’s are not relevant. i agree, so i should be able to purchase what i please without completing the atf ******-form.
