So the people who said it were felons. Is that why they won't say who it was.

“I’ll pardon everyone who has come within 200 feet of the Oval,” Trump said in a recent meeting.

The criminals in his administration who have been doing his bidding would be crazy to believe him.

Plus, there's a good chance he'll die before the end of his term so they should be demanding to see the pardon right now.

And even if they get one, it won't protect them from civil liability and state prosecutions.

Well that means gweggy and karny are safe.

Biden  pardoned his extended family 15 minutes  before trump took over.

Trump should pardon  Ben Roberts Smith on behalf of alpha males.

He needs to protect masculinity from these sorts of people

I am apolitical. It's not ok for Biden to pardon anyone.
america has a deeply flawed system.
that a pollie can overrule a judge is wrong. Any pollie.
there is no separartion of powers

2 wrongs do not make a right

Hunter didn't pardon anyone over a judge's actions. He pardoned them over a prez-elect's threat to lawfare their arses.

And oh look, turned out he meant it too. There are no "both sides" here, dear.

Only he.

The autopen's the rule of law, dear. Sleepy Joe allowed it to take its course, all the way to supporting a Trump-appointed judge's decision to throw out his son's plea deal.

Sleepy Joe pardoned all those who'd been threatened by the prez-elect with LAWFARE. As soon as DL made that little election promise, all bets were off. Joe was obliged to preemptively pardon the lot, as you'd expect.

DL even threatened to cancel his pardons, citing autopen. DL hates America so much, he replaced the previous prez's portrait with an autopen. It remains hung in the White House to this very day.

Now, when the next Congress is sworn in, DL will be impeached - not for replacing SJ's portrait, but for LAWFARE. Pam Bondi will be investigated. Todd Blanche too. DL's pretending he'll pardon them, but the jury's still out on that.

Sure, he'll pardon violent criminals, drug traffickers and billionaire friends, but I think he'll leave a few bare bots in the showers, don't you?

Kristi and Pam will be fun to watch squirming. DL loves watching a cat fight.

You?

Thanks, Lee. Do you support the sale of presidential pardons for cash?

Cheers.

lee wrote on Apr 15^th, 2026 at 1:37pm:


I see. So that's a no, is it?

You wouldn't support a prez who sold pardons for cash, is that right?

one might think the american system was created for corruption

lee wrote on Apr 15^th, 2026 at 2:45pm:


No no, I'm just asking.

As a general rule, pardoning somebody for a personal cash payment would be totally corrupt, don't you think?

lee wrote on Apr 15^th, 2026 at 4:55pm:


Yes. This is a thread about presidential pardons, you see.

So, would you like to answer the question?

Over to you.

Yes. We will just excuse the others. No?

I hope donny pardons Ben Roberts Smith

Big Donger wrote on Apr 15^th, 2026 at 7:44pm:


You and Greg, like Aqua here, confuse the US with Australia. You're pissing into the wind. You have no say in the US, whinging, whining, taking shots of Southern Cumfarts(Miam Miam!) while you piss in each others pockets is pathetic.

I for one, support Ben and hope the witch hunt ends soon..

Setanta wrote on Apr 15^th, 2026 at 9:40pm:


You sound a little bit hurt, Setanta. Do you support presidents being paid to pardon criminals?

For some reason, Lee won't say.

You?

So, in summary, Aquascoot wants a foreign prez to pardon our war criminals, Setanta is rather toosh, and Lee believes US presidents should receive cash for pardoning criminals.

It is a jolly world, no?

lee wrote on Apr 16^th, 2026 at 11:22am:


You wouldn't support it, but bribes must be paid?

Come come, dear, how many presidents do you know who've been bribed with personal cash payments?

lee wrote on Apr 16^th, 2026 at 2:38pm:


Non-payment of bribes is when goods and/or services are exchanged in kind, dear.

A prez might be offered a hot babe, a property deal, a deal to keep a secret, or just someone to party with, even if they like their girls a little on the young side, you know?

So, which do you support more, Lee?

Bribes in cash, or a decent side hustle?

lee wrote on Apr 16^th, 2026 at 5:35pm:


Moi? None, dear.

Ones such as us would never support a prez recieving cash/services-in-kind for a criminal pardon.

Not now, not ever. If it happened in our country, it'd be an automatic arrest and dismissal, which we would support absolutely. Our politicians have no power to even issue pardons, explaining why Aquascoot's appealing to the current US prez to pardon his war-criminal hero, Ben Roberts-Smith.

So now you know. And now we know. You support overturning justice for cash/services-in-kind.

You.

lee wrote on Apr 16^th, 2026 at 5:35pm:



You didn't respond to that.

So say someone paid via property deal (one of your"bribes") - How would it be formalised? A change of deed would be required. If it came as being of "non commercial value", then the capital gains would be horrendous when sold.

Big Donger wrote on Apr 16^th, 2026 at 6:32pm:



Nope. You are jumping the shark again.

Bobby. wrote on Apr 16^th, 2026 at 8:17pm:


Sure did, Bobby. Some of his pardons were given away for nothing.

Lookie lookie, there's the Jan 6 insurrectionists above his head, like angels. You can even see Q-Anon Sharman.

Not so much a man as a God.

And there, right in the foreground, is Juan Orlando Hernandez, the Honduran drug smuggler caught on WhatsApp saying he wanted to shove as many drugs up the gringos' noses as he can.

Hard to say why DL pardoned him. Perhaps it just felt good to release a convicted drug trafficker doing a 40 year stint - the target of six years of surveillance, extradition proceedings and prosecution, a huge win for the DEA and DOJ, costing millions.

I don't know about the sick, dear. Last time your DL tried to heal them, he had them drinking bleach to do a number on the lungs. Then, he went on to appoint the most redeculous health secretary the US has ever had. His nomination for Surgeon General's not even a surgeon - she promotes online vitamin supplements and fake herbal cures.

But he's sure good at putting criminals back on the streets. Over half a dozen of the insurrectionists went on to commit further violent and sexual offences.

We will make America great again, no?

lee wrote on Apr 17^th, 2026 at 2:31pm:


I see. So if I can show you evidence of a presidential pardon granted for cash, you'll issue a stern rebuke and condemn said prez immediately, will you?

That's a question.

lee wrote on Apr 17^th, 2026 at 6:53pm:


I see. You don't want to say.

All good. You're back to supporting presidents who pardon criminals for cash.

Thanks, Lee. I guess we just have different values.

Just remember this when a Dem gets back in. I'm not gonna play quote-me, mkay?

lee wrote on Apr 17^th, 2026 at 7:15pm:


Proof of what? You just indicated you support presidents pardoning criminals for cash.

But I'm curious. If you'll support that, what else would you support?

Presidents starting endless wars for cash? Presidents crashing the markets for cash? Presidents running to become prez for cash?

Oh, you are naughty. Different strokes for different folks, innit.

Big Donger wrote on Apr 17^th, 2026 at 7:06pm:




Look Big Donger -

when you're a star they let you do it.

I see poor karny has reappeared and still doesn't have any evidence to post. I guess it was one of his usual irrelevant throw away lines

Just meant to muddy the waters.
