Did I eat The Onion?
Did the NYT eat The Onion?
Did Biden eat The Onion?
Who in their right mind believes the magats are going to honour the rule of law or these pardons especially?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It's going to make it a notch harder to prosecute people for bogus charges. The appearance of legality is still somewhat important if the target is cis and doesn't have dark skin.
I heard that pardons when you haven't been convicted of crime mean nothing. Also you think Trump Supreme Court going honor those? Also does anyone believe Trump going start following the law now that he is back in power?
There will not be a 2028 election Trump if still alive will find a way. Hell that if we survive the next four years.
That's what McCarthyism is for!
I sure hope so but I’m not holding my breath.
As if some ceremony will prevent the horrors to come
Biden was president the last 3 months? I thought he died or something.
I'd say pardoning presumes guilt but who gives a damn anymore?
Surprisingly it was Liz Cheney and not Dick Cheney.
