    Good Lord, man, do you really and truly believe that crap?! For example, what were Hunter's "treasonous crimes"? As another, is it your position that all the crimes with which Trump was charged - every.single.one - were bogus and filed by a " weaponized" (man, you ultra right wingers love that term) Justice Department?

    Assuming that he does issue blanket pardons for Trump's enemies and that's by no means a certainty most of the high profile individuals on the list Liz Cheney and Adam Schiff coming immediately to mind will decline the pardons because they did nothing wrong and have the resources to fight frivolous investigations and prosecutions. Lower level persons like career employees of the DOJ or FBI or persons like Cassidy Hutchinson may accept the pardons because they do not have the resources to fight Trump's retribution if implemented by his Toadies Pam Bondi and Kash Patel.

    Can you list the thing that Biden did that would equate to treason? I've seen a lot of accusations of bribery and understand the thinking behind that. I have not seen anything that would suggest treason.

    January 6 rioters who assaulted police "had no choice." Apparently, they were forced to assault police officers. Who forced them, exactly? I suspect that the people advocating for their release will ignore this aspect as well.

    Trump will 'most likely' pardon Capitol rioters on day one and says Jan. 6 committee members should be jailed

    Ex-FBI Informant Alexander Smirnov Agrees to Plead Guilty to Lying About Bidens - The New York Times

    A former F.B.I. informant accused of fabricating a claim that President Biden and his son Hunter were each paid a $5 million bribe by a Ukrainian oligarch has agreed to plead guilty to a range of federal charges, according to a court filing on Thursday.

    Alexander Smirnov, a profiteer, fixer and gossip based in Las Vegas, reached a deal with David C. Weiss, the special counsel overseeing the investigation into Hunter Biden, that could lead to 48 to 72 months in prison, according to the filing in federal court in California.

    Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Smirnov agreed to plead guilty to creating a false record in a federal investigation, obstructing justice and failing to pay taxes and penalties on $2.1 million in income for 2020 through 2022.

    He is also required to pay $675,502 in restitution, according to the filing.
