Flotsam and Jetsam - I Beg Your Pardon

But, yep, three days later, we're still obsessed with the unconditional pardon of Hunter Biden for any federal crimes from period Jan. 1 2014 to Dec. 1 2024. Anybody have eyes on Hunter now? Stacy McCain has words For the Benefit of Nate Silver (and Anyone Else Who Has Just Now Discovered How Selfish and Dishonest Joe Biden Really Is), the story of the crash that killed his first wife and daughter and put Beau and Hunter in the hospital. "What’s your point here, Nate? As if the White House hasn’t been lying about everything, from the day Biden became president?" At PJM, Matt Margolis, Seriously? The Liberal Media Is Actually Denying Biden Lied About Hunter's Pardon and Kevin Downey, Libs Are Shocked That Biden Is a Liar. Wait Until They See His Encore. Guy Benson at TownHall, The Biggest Lie of All? We Need to Talk About the Hunter Biden Pardon. Tyler Austin Harper@Tyler_A_Harper, "Turns out Biden and friends had an open conversation where they were like: “So the plan is to lie and promise that the president would never pardon Hunter even though he definitely might pardon Hunter. Everyone cool with that?” Much honor. Much Democracy. Very anti-fascist." The Divine Ms. Devine at NYPo says We always knew Joe Biden would pardon troubled son Hunter — fitting the president would break another promise to the American people.

Catturd ™@catturd2, "Anyone defending Hunter, after seeing his laptop, is a scumbag just like he is."

Steve Scalise @SteveScalise, "You’ve been lied to every step of the way by this Administration and the corrupt Biden family. This is just the latest in their long coverup scheme.

At Da Wire, Thune Signals Senate Will Continue To Probe Biden Corruption After Pardon. From NewsMax, Sen. Manchin Calls on Biden to Pardon Trump. Breitbart, Democrats, Media Elite Urge Biden to Pardon Trump’s Alleged ‘Enemies List.’ Liz Stauffer at LI say The Pardon May Not Be Quite the Magic Bullet It Seems, “You can’t bring criminal charges against Hunter Biden, but there’s nothing that prevents the Trump Justice Department from filing a fraud case and seeking civil remedy.” Hat Hair's Dave Strom notes They Can't Take the Fifth If They Were Pardoned. JD Davidson at Da Fed thinks Hunter Biden’s Pardon Is All About Protecting Joe Biden, Not His Son, but will he pardon himself on his way out? Nick Ballasy at JTN reports Federal judge ends Hunter Biden gun case after presidential pardon, moot. At TownHall, Tom Knighton thinks Joe Biden Is a Genius "Of course, that all assumes there's enough of Biden left to actually be that calculating. I can't rule out that his handlers are resentful of being ousted with the old goat, so it might be them working through Biden, but that feels a little too tin-foil hat for me. Then again, the difference between "established fact" and "conspiracy theory" seems to be about six weeks, so anything's possible."

At ET, Democrats Ask Biden to Try to Limit Trump’s Proposed Use of Military on US Soil, "Two senators ask Biden administration to clarify the conditions under which the Insurrection Act can be invoked."  OTP interprets the NYT: Biden Fast Becoming Irrelevant, ‘Largely Ceded The Stage To Mr. Trump’. Mary Chastain at LI, Biden Promises $1 Billion to Help Africans Displaced by Natural Disasters, "How about those suffering from Hurricane Helene and Milton?"

Sundance at CTH, WSJ Reporting President Trump Considering Replacing Hegseth with DeSantis. Althouse picks it up, "Trump Talks to DeSantis About Replacing Hegseth/And about appointing Lara Trump to the Senate.". "A pithy headline at The Bulwark. This is too tit-for-tatty." I was looking forward to Hegseth kicking ass and taking names at the Pentagon, so I hope this isn't true. Besides, let DeSantis run Florida, and then run for the Preznitzy in '28.  From WokeSpy, The View Co-Host Sunny Hostin Forced to Read Another Embarrassing Legal Correction, about Hegseth. At Twitchy, CNN's Brian Stelter Upset Fox News Viewers Don't Know About Pete Hegseth Scandals. Atop Da Hill, 5 things to know about Kash Patel. Stop, I already like him!

Fortunately, the FBI is not the NKVD. The Senate should Show more." Beege Welborn at Hat Hair says No, Trump Shouldn't Run His Nominees Through an FBI Gantlet, but too late, at Da Mail, Trump team makes a deal to clear the way for FBI background checks on cabinet picks. AP reports, Chad Chronister, Donald Trump’s pick to run the DEA, withdraws name from consideration "In March 2020, Chronister arrested the pastor of a megachurch who held services with hundreds of people and violated a safer-at-home order in place aimed at limiting the spread of the Covid virus."

Kurt Schlichter at TownHall, says The Trump Vibe Is Growing and the Left Is Big Mad. Sister Toldja, Boom: 'Village People' Singer Takes Aim at the MSM, Minces No Words on Trump's Continued Use of 'YMCA'. NewsMax opines Transgender Movement Helped Elect Trump. I agree. 

Fox, Single House race stands between Republicans and 1-seat majority, "Just 1 out of 435 House races remains uncertain.  In California, of course. "In California’s 13th Congressional District, Rep. John Duarte, R-Calif., is fighting for his political life against Democrat Adam Gray. As of Monday afternoon, Gray leads Duarte by a few hundred votes – a margin of roughly 0.1%.

Paul Bedard at WaEx, Most back case-by-case Jan. 6 pardons, even 68% of Democrats. Matt Taibbi has a Note on the FBI "Kash Patel will be the focus of scrutiny now, but the Bureau needs to look in the mirror. How J. Edgar Hoover's legacy was revived in the Trump years. . . . I have no idea if Kash Patel will do a good job or if he’ll even make it to office, but answering the question of why he was chosen as FBI Director isn’t hard: ironically, it’s the FBI that now needs to be disrupted, urgently, and he’s at least shown a willingness to do it. I doubt they’ll go quietly."  Carl Paulus @CarlPaulus "Calling parents terrorists, arresting activists with SWAT Teams, and spying on churches will do that." Quote (((Harry Enten)))@ForecasterEnten, ""Jeez Louise": Views of the FBI have really soured in the last decade. The FBI's approval has gone from 59% to its century low mark at 41%. The drop with the GOP is even greater from 62% to 26%." Althouse, catches the NYT worrying, "Currently, the Justice Department and the F.B.I. are barred from using compulsory legal processes, like subpoenas and search warrants, to go after reporters’ information..." "... including by asking third parties, like phone and email companies, to turn over their data, or to force them to testify about their sources. But that limit is in a rule issued by Attorney General Merrick B. Garland. Should Mr. Trump’s attorney general rescind that regulation, the F.B.I. would be freed to go after reporters’ information. . . From "Kash Patel Has Plan to Remake the F.B.I. Into a Tool of Trump/President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the F.B.I. has called for firing the agency’s top officials, shutting down its Washington headquarters and prosecuting journalists" (NYT). Sundance, Joe Rogan Interviews Mike Benz "Mike Benz is one of the key voices who explains the U.S. industrial censorship complex, and the Intelligence Community interfaces therein.  Benz background knowledge of how the foreign and domestic censorship system was put into place is exceptional."
