Trump does this for this questionable guy because someone whispered his name in his ear and yet Biden only commutes Leonard Peltier and puts him in a position where Trump can either have the FBI harass him to death in home confinement or maybe even send him right back to prison because he merely commuted the sentence rather than pardoning. Fuck Biden. Even when he does something sorta good it's done so ~~incompetently~~ incompletely and badly as to be almost more a taunt than a good deed.

I feel like this is him trying to one up Peltier. like he wasn't gonna do the j6 crew until Joe pardoned his fam, and then this is the 1:1 follow-up

Q: How do you know when a politician is lying?

A: Their mouth is open.

To be incompetent at something good they'd first need to intend something good.

The connection was made by linking the username "altoid", used during Silk Road's early days to announce the website, and a forum post in which Ulbricht, posting under the nickname "altoid", asked for programming help and gave his email address, which contained his full name

Didn't this dude try to have someone assassinated because they were bad for business or some other petty shit?

That's a dope ass little plant you got there homie. I wonder what the story behind that is 🌱

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 hour ago

I don't know why this specific person chose to own a plant. But, having been to prison, I know exactly how he got it.

We learn to love ourselves by learning to love others. An intentional progression often starts with a plant, then a fish, a cat, a dog, and then other humans.

Prisoners often suck at love for self and others. In the US, the best of Christians often fight for them to have rehabilitative programs to overcome substance abuse and learn to love. They also understand that most prisoners have tremendous value for any comfort or convenience not usually found in prison.

So, they get approval, give away plants to whomever wants them, and then teach their thing to whomever wants to show up.

Now do all the drug "offenders"... I am glad he got released somehow. Sucks the DOJ stole the 3B$ in buttcoin that was recovered which had been stolen from Silk Road. He "only" owed 180M.
