Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Maybe we can get rid of them now
It's a slippery slope if he actually follows through and supreme court allows him to do it because the next pres could just say Trump wasn't of sound mind so none of his EOs are valid.
I mean really, they are just executive orders. They have no strength of law and no due process. The next president could literally undue every executive order done by the previous one by just issuing an executive order that does exactly that for no reason.
Pardon's aren't exactly the same thing as an executive order because they have an actual constitutional and legal basis.
"Anyone receiving 'Pardons,' 'Commutations,' or any other Legal Document so signed, please be advised that said Document has been fully and completely terminated, and is of no Legal effect," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
Because of course posting on your own little nazi fan blog is how we do proper government policy these days...
He doesn't have the power to countermand any pardon or commutation. He's probably just fishing for more bribes from the wrongly unpardoned pardonees.
Next Democratic President “Anyone receiving ‘Pardons,’ ‘Commutations,’ or any other Legal Document so signed by Dementia Don, please be advised that said Document has been fully and completely terminated, and is of no Legal effect,”
Haha nice one like the Dems would ever do that. It wouldn't be proper or how things are done. Whatever excuse they use to be skinless cowards.
Total, pointless distraction.
He should return his attention to gilding the White House shitters and fantasizing about Bubba-spunk.
So did Trump sign all those Jan 6 pardons himself?
