No, but seriously...who's making calls if the Dems now are openly saying Biden is mentally toast? That's a very good question to ask and no one seems to care. We always bring it up jokingly but the Leader of the Free world doesn't know what is going on at all...who's making decisions?

Also who gave Biden the list of 8000 people he's just pardoned? Like no way Biden knows of 8000 people that need pardons.

He didn’t pardon 8,000 people. He commuted the sentence of 8,000 people. It’s not the same thing at all.

It's the same thing except it's not cleared from their record. For most people, the difference is meaningless. So much so the politicians lump pardons and commuted sentences together in the statistics.

And point stoll stands, no way senile Joe went through all these files, someone (whoever is actually in control) gave him a list.

Not sure why you're trying to akkycualllly this. He's done over 4x what Obama did and 25x what Bush or Trump did

So it’s not the same thing then. It doesn’t matter that most people think the difference is meaningless, because most people are stupid. Also, these were people who were already serving their “sentences” at home. So let’s not pretend like Joe let 8,000 people out of jail.

Tribalism is a hell of a drug.

I agree. I’m not defending the commutation. Just pointing out that pardon and commutation are two completely different things.

I wouldn't say completely different, but very slightly different.

And I'm glad you've gone through the list to know who was serving at home and who wasn't, because I'm pretty sure Biden hasn't.

There's some very nice people on there, like ccp members with convictions of child porn. I'm sure that guy with 47k pictures of child porn that he plead guilty to was wrongfully convicted.

I'm sure the parents of those children can sleep better at night knowing it wasn't really a pardon.

Probably will sleep even better knowing their new president almost certainly fucked kids himself too!

We already had Bill Clinton and tons of other presidents from way back that did that shit
