I think the power of pardon in the UK lies with the monarch - i.e. a royal pardon. It's very rarely used, but I did wonder if it could have been used for the wrongly convicted sub-postmasters.

I would rather there were re-trials and verdicts changed. I would then look to take anybody who presented false evidence to court and get them banged up. That particular type of UK justice is for the bosses to use though it doesn't apply to them. I think it is a terrible look pardoning a family member. I get he has been a bit of a political pawn but nonetheless a pardon is too far

I think what Biden should've done was make sure his sentence was reduce and a fine paid, so no jail time, maybe full rehab and social work.

An excellent video from James O'Brien in regards to Hunter Biden.

Much like JOB I've reversed my thoughts on it. I hadn't looked in to things properly.

Ministers can recommend a pardon but other people would have to look at it and as Caversham says they ultimately send it to Charlie for sign off since the courts act on his behalf

Thanks folks

Good on him. As a father I’d have done exactly the same.

He has nothing to lose.

there's a lot of calls out there for Biden giving Liz Cheney a preemptive pardon, Biden needs to get a move on and do this for a lot of people Trump has sworn to get even with, Trump despises her and once jokingly(i think) said she should be in front of a firing squad, the corrupt judges in SCOTUS already gave him the green light to do whatever the **** he wants to. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaig...-tour-threats/ , what a wonderful human being Donald Trump really is, i hope he chokes one day soon on his stupid looking MAGA cap

Trumps first pardons will be for a rake of erses that sit in prison after Jan 6th

Doubt whether Trump would consider putting anything as nutritious as that in his gob. He wasn't talking about firing squads for Cheney, though. He was trying to make a point about her being a warmonger (what with him being a future Nobel Peace Prize winner and all, it makes sense) and suggested her views would be different if she was at the sharp end.

I’m certainly not relishing the forthcoming Trump administration but I am slightly torn between thinking he’s actually planning to act on all his intentions and writing them off as bluff, bluster, pish and posturing with a view to making his much vaunted deals.

I’d really rather not be in a position where we were going to find out, one way or another.

[grunt]

America, y'all.

I think his head is wasted with privilege, money and fame more than it is by beasties.

Me Too is dead. This is the era of I believe ‘him’


Matt Gaetz, the former congressman picked by Donald Trump to become attorney-general, is plotting revenge on the enemies who torpedoed his bid.
Hoping to prevent lawmakers from releasing a report into allegations that he had sex with underage girls, he is mischievously toying with the idea of taking up his new seat in January and filing a motion to expose all the secret “Me Too” settlements paid by congress to victims of sexual harassment.

Matt Gaetz, the former congressman picked by Donald Trump to become attorney-general, is plotting revenge on the enemies who torpedoed his bid. Hoping to prevent lawmakers from releasing a report into allegations that he had sex with underage girls, he is mischievously toying with the idea of taking up his new seat in January and filing a motion to expose all the secret “Me Too” settlements paid by congress to victims of sexual harassment.

This is the guy that Trump wanted to be his Attorney General.

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz, a Florida Republican who briefly stood to become President-elect Donald Trump's nominee to be attorney general, was found by congressional ethics investigators to have paid numerous women — including a 17-year-old girl — for sex, and to have purchased and used illegal drugs, including from his Capitol Hill office, according to a final draft of a comprehensive investigative report obtained by CBS News.

From 2017 to 2020, Representative Gaetz made tens of thousands of dollars in payments to women that the Committee determined were likely in connection with sexual activity and/or drug use," noted the report, which lists payments totaling more than $90,000 to 12 different women.

The report found "substantial evidence" Gaetz engaged in rampant illicit drug use.

In addition to sexual misconduct and illicit drug use, the report also accused Gaetz of accepting gifts of luxury travel in excess of permissible limits with the 2018 trip to the Bahamas. And, it said he arranged for his chief of staff to assist a woman with whom he had engaged in sexual activity in obtaining a passport, falsely indicating to the State Department that she was one of his constituents.

The next 4 years are going to be WILD.

My only hope is it’s a bit like last time where he doesn’t really get anything done because he can’t unify his own party and therefore can’t get any bills passed.

There's a lot of plundering to be done behind all the bluster about building walls, hating Nato and deporting all their cheap labour

If that’s all he’s doing then I’ll live with it. The American deserve some Trump consequences anyway. I’m only really concerned with his foreign policy from now on.

Same here, I think it will be all about filling the coffers, revenge politics and doing those big signatures on presidential decrees that he is so fond of.

Someone needs to sit him down for the umpteenth time and convince him Santa is a mythical figure, it's Musk who has been coming down his chimney and filling his sack.
