Is Biden admitting to illegal behaviors during his term?

Asked by seawulf575 (17186points) 2 hours ago

Joe Biden just gave a whole lot of blanket/preemptive pardons last night. Anthony Fauci, Gen. Milley, Liz Cheney, the entire J6 committee and a few more all got blanket pardons for anything they might have done that was illegal. By doing this is he admitting that what they did was likely illegal?

My personal take is that Biden is doing what he can to soften the rampage that is coming.

No. He’s just protecting them from the grade school bully who has stated he will send the wrath of g-d down on his dissenters many times.

Of course not.

I understand the left wing talking point of “Trump is going to weaponize the government against his political rivals”. But if they did nothing wrong, what is there to use against them, and why would they need pardons? If they did do something wrong then wouldn’t the pardons would be used to protect them from justice?

Not at all. He is simply insulating his staff against asinine retributive made-up action by the Trump asses.

Not at all. He’s saving those people money they would have to spend on lawyers for the frivolous charges. And saving the taxpayers money to not go through senate hearings, court cases, etc., again for frivolous charges.

Doing nothing wrong could get you ten years or worse in Stalin’s gulag. That is what happens when the legal system is controlled by one political party and indeed one man.
