if Republicans did nothing wrong, why were pardons sought?

[cancel2 2022]

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"

Yes exactly, he's focused on Florida at the moment.

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.

It is what it is as in repukes are un-American traitors and so are idiots who vote against their own interests with a hater and ignorant attitude for this repuke swine that squanders taxpayer money at living it up while advocating waging war on democracy, the well-being of society and to the treasonous pleasures of foreign enemies.

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.

Biden's not a progressive. Nobody else in the party has expressed interest, AFAIK.

[christiefan915]

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.

It's not being dishonest to say I'm not betting that DeSantis will be the GOP candidate. He has a lot of followers in FL but not so much in the other states. I would hope this country is smart enough not to put another far-right nut job into office. The majority in states like NY, CA, NJ and other blue states wouldn't vote for DeSantis; he's a blowhard who appeals to trumpers mainly. I wouldn't vote for him as dogcatcher.

[christiefan915]

They've seen how corrupted "justice" is under you Sleazocrats.

If you think Barr wasn't corrupt you've got rocks in your head.

[evince]

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.

Oh you mean all that deep state police, court and judges appointed by trump?

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.

I suspect it's more than that. Maybe trump plans to run again so the party will unite around him, rather than groom a newbie.

He's not going to run for President in 24,....he's going to run for VICE president in 24. Then president in 28 and 32.

All that matters are the swing states. Wi, Mich, Penn, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Arizona and Ohio. IMO the R will win 7 of those. If they do its a landslide. But who knows,....24 is still a ways out .

Not he's not historically but he is being guided controlled by Obama, Rice et al. Progressives are destroying the Dems with their inflexibility and dogmatic intolerance.

With trump? I'm getting the popcorn ready if that happens.

I can't believe you fall for these bizarre conspiracy theories, I thought you were savvier than that.

Voters in PA had their flirtation with trump and by 2020, the thrill was gone. I'd be very much surprised if they voted for trump and/or DeSantis in 2024.

You have to love the sex criminal Gaetz asking for a pardon for 'everything he has ever done'.

He ain't.
