if Republicans did nothing wrong, why were pardons sought?

[Shoresy]

When the House select committee investigating the Capitol attack revealed the evidence that showed Republican members of Congress sought preemptive presidential pardons after January 6, one of the most striking requests came from Congressman Mo Brooks.

The request from Brooks to the Trump White House came in an 11 January 2021 email – obtained by the Guardian – that asked for all-purpose, preemptive pardons for lawmakers involved in objecting to the certification of Joe Biden’s election win.

Because we have a corrupt DOJ and Republicans can't get a fair trial in DC.

Maybe you should stop being corrupt.

I don't believe that for one moment, the real reason is you hope to bury Trump politically. However, in the process, you just aid the DeSantis campaign hugely, so carry on.

It's no big deal to you but for us, that flake trying to overturn the results of a fair election is always going to be newsworthy.

Btw, looks like BoJo's having big troubles keeping his party in power.

"British Prime Minister Boris Johnson suffered a hammer blow to his authority on Friday after his party lost two parliamentary by-elections in a single night, raising new questions about his leadership."

Biden President doesn't seem to realise that people are heartily sick of the whole shit show and this benefits Ron DeSantis hugely.

More than two years before DeSantis will even be in the running and that's a lifetime in politics.

Yes he has but then so has Macron come to that, much worse in some ways. I'm just pointing out the truth, regarding the Dems, DeSantis is very likely to be the beneficiary here. I think you know that as well if you're being honest.

I don't think Hispanics are especially bothered by R v W, but they most assuredly are bothered by the border issue and the upcoming recession and loss of jobs. Of course that could change but I just can't see how with Biden and Harris, can you?

I might also point out that Keir Starmer is in a whole world of shit as well, nobody likes him including many on the Labour side.

Ok who have you got, assuming Biden and Harris are toast? I can tell you this for free, don't put up another Progressive candidate if you want to win.

Somebody on the radio referred to DeSantis as "Trump with a brain"

Yes that's about right, don't you think?

[AProudLefty]

Oh gee I dunno. Could it just be that they knew there was a corrupt and power mad incoming administration coming in that had no problem whatsoever using the deep state agencies against their political opponents maybe? Not exactly rocket science unless you are mildly retarded.

Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida on Wednesday said he didn't plan on running for president in 2024.

He said he was focused on making sure "people are not supporting critical race theory."

DeSantis also told the Fox News host Sean Hannity he would run for reelection in Florida.

Trump has a brian. those policies were his, not some staffer like with Biden
He has lacks impulse control

But he's got a ton of political baggage, Desantis says he's not running -and Trump could easily win primaries without DeSantis

[dukkha]

I don't believe that for one moment.

well my friend these are politicians, and if he were to say he's running it would jeoparadize his re-election....
still he did say "no"
