10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
If Elmo throwing Nazi salutes wasn't a big enough tell, Drumpf calling them the January 6 hostages should terrify anyone who hasn't already left the country.
Should start saying he pardoned "antifa" or whatever conservatives were calling them to distance themselves.
Well they did blame the whole thing on Antifa so if we just take them at their word that’s exactly what he did 😂
if you think language is the battleground I hope you have your exit visa ready
It was a joke based on how inconsistent they are in language. They regularly say completely contradictory things in the same breath and it's always absurd. It's not like his cult would actually turn on him over that.
Obviously this is a serious moment, but if we just wallow in it then we can end up in a dark mindset. Humor is a tool we can use to help in dark times.
He needs his brownshirts for what's coming next
the pool of candidates for new hires at border patrol and ice just got larger.
And police officers
And senators and representatives
I'm actually surprised he did but I guess Brownshirts gotta come from somewhere.
I genuinely thought he'd leave them twisting in the wind.
I'm also surprised he actually gave enough of a shit to pardon them. I assumed he'd just forget about them.
He doesn't. He did it in order to set the precedent that crime and violence committed on his behalf will be pardoned.
I somehow thought it would be more calculated and not quite so broad.
To be fair "calculated" and "Trump" don't exaclty go hand in hand.
His ban of and then saving of Tiktok falls under the most Basic Bitch Strong Men Tactics.
The party of law and order.
Is there a public list of all the people charged that are getting pardons?
If it's a broad pardon like this, you usually have to apply for it, rather than it having a list of names.
I hope there's a public list for that. Just to see how many of them reoffend with in the year, but also how many of them can even fill out the application properly
We will see the reoffenders, i guarantee it.
I don't have a list, but here's 5 of them.
A new list is starting up that will track all 1500 of them, details here: https://bsky.app/profile/reportbywilson.bsky.social/post/3lg7p2a3yu22c
