If that's the case then shouldn't the president still sign a document that lists everything that was signed with an autopen?
At least Trump and Elon get to end it on their terms. And probably won't have to worry about all that money going back to their recipients the minute a Democrat gets the chance to do so.
And we have yet to really see left wing militias and gangs of illegals vs ICE and the US military. Kind of surprised we haven't seen anything get to that point.
His political opposition mocked him in 2015, tried to obstruct him from 2016 to 2020 and then they had the bright idea to try to ruin his life from 2020 to 2024. In a way through his interactions with it, the deep state has pushed Trump in a certain direction to make him become its very own nightmare.
Someone has to pump up those numbers so it can regain first place.
It would not, for a number of reasons including the fact that it has to go through both Houses of Congress first, and that the President cannot (as far as I am aware) delegate that power.
Does not matter. The Pardon power is not one of the powers that can be delegated. It is solely vested in the highest bodies (President for Federal pardons, Governors for State pardons, both Houses of Congress for the 14th Amendment disability pardon (if it even counts as one) ). There is nothing in USA, or its history, suggesting that the Pardon power can be delegated. The closest comparison I can find is 1797 law passed by Congress that allowed the Secretary of the Treasury to forgive fines regarding ships without proper certification (and for violation of other laws), but as the Supreme Court noted, it was a different power entirely than the one enjoyed by the President. See The Laura, 114 U.S. 411 (1885). The Founding fathers intended the Pardon power to be entrusted into a single man (the one enjoying that power), and specifically cautioned against delegating or sharing such power.
That pardon's imply legal guilt is a well believed thing, but ultimately a myth born out of misreading of SCOTUS precedent. I would suggest you read Lorance v. Commandant, 13 F.4th 1150 (10th Cir. 2021) for a very well articulated reason as to why there is no legal guilt from accepting a presidential pardon
Joe Biden himself is a motivated turncoat. Trump's tweet largely makes it sound like the originator of this story was Joe Biden himself. Why announce or try this at all? All Joe Biden has to do is come out and say "I knew about the pardons" and bam, case dead. It wouldn't make sense for Trump to do this unless he already knew Joe Biden wasn't going to do that. Which would make sense if the person who told Trump about this was Joe Biden himself.
Wasn't there that one Tranny? And we've had a few minor scuffles at the border that didn't amount to much. That's really the extent of their strength though, Lefties aren't interested in actually dying for the cause, by and far. They were such abrasive, vindictive assholes before because they were protected by the system and could get away with it. Now that they're actually being arrested when they try to interfere, and their lawfare keeps failing, they don't know what to do.
First they loved him, then they mocked him, after that they hated him and now they fear him.
Funny that. The President has the absolute right to declassified documents. To the point that any documents, in possession of a former President, that are from his administration or prior, are presumed to be properly declassified on their face.
Nah, a bit earlier than that. I think it started when then-president Obama ordered surveillance (including unlawful wiretaps) on Trump's campaign and other "interesting" trickery to interfere with the 2016 elections.
I wonder if Biden can make a statement like that.
If Biden comes out and says "Trump's right" It would be an incredible upset. The right would suddenly be on Joe's side to a degree, and the Left would go absolutely, genuinely nuclear. It'd be an incredible upset in the political landscape, I wouldn't even know where to start looking to watch the meltdowns.
Did you beat the crap out of him after or just let him punk you?
