Definitely the former. The most famous example was Ford’s pardon of Nixon back in 1974. It covered pretty much anything that could have been thrown at Nixon at the time (no legal charges ever had the chance to be brought). It wouldn’t have covered any theoretical crimes Nixon committed AFTER the...

I imagine that the pardon Trump would give to himself will only be pulled out if one of the federal charges becomes active again. 1) He can't do anything about his current felony conviction with a pardon, since it's not a federal charge. 2) He doesn't want to pre-emptively issue a pardon only to...

Who else would have been? Or are we assuming that someone who didn't run, would have done? Remember, DeSantis used to be far more popular than he is today. (Or, to put it another way, everything you just said about DeSantis also applies to Trump. That "rare ass charisma" you cite is just our...

I'm very much in agreement, although I do wonder how DeSantis's efforts might have worked if he wasn't actively campaigning against Trump. Trump changes everything.

That's pretty much it. It's extremely annoying to see the legions of so-called "Christians" condemning the sermon as "political" or somehow out of place in a place of worship, or who accuse Budde of not knowing her Bible (which was quoted and paraphrased extensively) because of her (and, often...

It stopped being that the moment the rodent announced his intentions to buy it... if not then, then once the purchase was finalized, which was still a long time ago, now.

Excepting for the last guy (who never had a Twitter account), I'm asking "what took you all so long?" I ditched that thing the moment the rat told us he was going to buy it.

Until he pardons them the way he pardoned the Jan 6 insurrectionists.

Honestly, I don't see DeSantis having the populist appeal that Trump does. That said, I'm pretty happy to take ANYTHING that denies Trump anything that he wants.

Probably, he wants to treat it as something foreign. All those "liberals" out there, and all....

More of Doctor Who thing, I guess, but Christopher Benjamin passed away a few days ago. https://www.doctorwhonews.net/2025/01/christopher_benjamin_1934_2025.html

It pretty much has to be something along the lines of "After all, January 6th was a love-fest. Maybe there were a few violent ones out there (probably liberals), and THEY should be punished, but not all of OUR lovely people, who did nothing wrong."

There's definitely a difference in how money is spent in the streaming era. Many streaming shows, despite having only a few episodes a season, cost many times the amount per episode (even after accounting for inflation) compared to their pre-streaming counterparts.

I very much hear that. It takes WAY too long between seasons (for too few episodes per season) in this era of streaming. That said, this is the first assurance I've gotten that Ahsoka Season 2 is actually happening (and in live action) after so many streaming services have been cutting their...

Even so, four of the Supremes were going to side with Trump.

This isn't new by now (and I'm not a boomer), but I will continue to reject your "we must be as bad as those we oppose" rhetoric until the day I die.

Indeed, he doesn't NEED to stage a coup while he has all the power GIVEN to him by the people's vote.

I disagree. Even if we DID figure it out, it needed the caption at the end to spell it out (however inaccurately. Even if you believe that Jesus WAS born in Bethlehem, no serious scholar puts the date in year "1," let alone on the equivalent of December 25th). Can you imagine all the folks...

Not that this is any better, but I read that to say that this will apply to people who invest a billion or more in the US. Merely having so much money won't cut it. It's still awful, but the difference is important to me.

I still have the fidget spinners with Prime's and Megatron's faces on them from a few years back.
