So who else is gathering kindling, sharpening their pitch forks, and perfecting the designs of their guillotines?

“Trump is meeting with Kim Jong Un at a resort hotel, if you can believe it.”.

By the end of his presidency on January 20, 2017, Barack Obama had exercised his constitutional power to grant executive clemency—that is, “pardon, commutation of sentence, remission of fine or restitution, and reprieve”—to 1,927 individuals convicted of federal crimes.

When Trump starts talking NFL, patriotism, National Anthem, I want people to stand up and shout “bone spurs!”. Booing isn’t effective, directly questioning his patriotism is.

David Koch is retiring.

Oh my god... if you’d told me when I was an 11 year-old Rodman superfan that I’d one day dread his involvement in negotiations with North Korea, I don’t even know WHAT I would have said. The sad part is that Rodman is probably the least likely to embarrass himself and the U.S. out of the pathetic parade of egomaniacs

I’m sure Pompeo got a hard on when he heard about that. He’d love for us to get into a war with them.

“Trump has recently become intensely focused on his ability to grant pardons, asking his lawyers to compile a list of candidates. ... He may sign a dozen or more in the next two months, this person added.”

If you click through to the report, you’ll see that roughly 291,000 “documents” were on his phones and iPad. I have no idea how many of those were meaningless system files. The rules about electronic discovery are a bit weird.

Let’s see, 169 out of 292,000...carry the 4...aaaaaaaaand yep, he’s fucked.

Seriously though, nearly 300,000 documents and non of them strictly legal? Just how many ‘Stormies’ are there out there?

Trump is weaponizing the power of the pardon to protect his ass and soothe his ego, but probably no president has misused the pardon as badly as Bill Clinton. Clinton’s pardons and commutations ON THE LAST DAY OF HIS PRESIDENCY included:
- Marc Rich (51 counts of tax fraud), whose wife had made huge donations to the
