    He lied on the form, doesn’t matter why, it was a crime. He came to an agreement to plead guilty with the prosecution that was thrown out. If he were anyone other than the president’s son, it wouldn’t have been, and he is at personal risk from a justice department with no accountability or integrity and a mandate to punish the soon-to-be president’s political enemies, only because he is the soon-to-be-former president’s son.

    This has nothing to do with drugs.

    Complain to your congressman about your drug problems, the president has no authority to resolve them for you.

        What part of: “it’s the governors who need to do that, not the President” don’t you understand?

          Yes, I’m sure there is nothing he could do… /S This is why Democrats didn’t win shit, you can’t do fuck all except pardon your family members and keep your rich buddies rich.

            Maybe try learning how things work before bitching about things that cannot happen the way you mistakenly think they do.

            The president only has the power to pardon federal crimes. Your state level crimes are at the mercy of your governor. This is not a failure of action or policy on Joe Biden’s part, but a feature of the system of checks and balances within our government. Complain to your local legislature.

                I hope you criticize your local legislators who have a much greater impact on your day to day life like you do the all mighty Oz in DC. 🙄

                  I hope you enjoy political scumbags as long as they are wearing your sweater. Don’t worry you’ll get kick that football next time Charlie brown.

        He did a lot of great things for so many people. I’m sorry he didn’t make the trip out to kiss your butt specifically.
