wasn’t it almost everyone on death row? I thought I read one of them murdered two officers, and another threw a woman off a bridge with a weight tied to her when she was still alive…

Oh yes. I had forgot. It was all but two folks. They will still spend the rest of their lives in prison.

I don't think it matters what anyone else does. Trump will do as he pleases anyway. If laws, traditions, social customs, and even reality don't matter, how would Biden matter?

its like Trump is following Biden’s lead on mass pardons or something. I do wonder why fauci got a pardon?

remember the countless media talking heads at the end of Trumps first time sounding the alarm on the possibility of him pardoning family members? The same media that would say things like only guilty people need pardons? Or was that Adam Schiff?

I can’t say I blame Biden for being selfish and doing exactly that, but it’s unusual to observe media go form 0 to 100 the very first week Trump is back in office. Now all the sudden there is controversy every hour of the day. Makes for good TV I guess

I think the media going from 0 to 100 is to be expected when there is a transition from one president to the next as it normally is a busy time for Washington.

As far as controversy every hour of the day would probably be related to the shattering of norms, and the obvious will of Donald to disrupt and destroy some of the checks and balances that exist in your democracy. Weaken it's institutions. Weaken your position as a country geopolitically. Give China more opportunity to fill the voids of influence. Withdrawing from W.H.O. and Paris Climate Accords is controversial, not stating an opinion as to how. I don't quite understand some of his appointments to DOD and DNI. So, there's more controversy there.

As for good tv, meh, just more of the same. The same hate. MAGA is emboldened. Different day. Trumps message to the country..., if you commit crime in my name, I got you, if you oppose me, be prepared for an adverse reaction. Oh, one more controversy..., what's the idea of revoking Boltons and Pompeos security detail when Iran still has an interest in assassinating them for the Solemani killing in Iraq? Dangerously childish if you ask me. But I know you don't.

The media hasn't changed nor has Trump, except he knows now that he won't ever be held accountable for anything. My news feeds were 90% Trump for the last 4 years and now it's back up to 99%. Even the freaking ads are Trump related. I see 1 story about a freeze warning and 1 story about a gang rape in India and all of the rest are Trump related.

In the meantime, Trump made billions with his crypto scam, now being backed by the US gov't, stripped the poor of Rx price protection, and has done not one thing about housing, food prices, or insurance costs other than a guarantee to raise prices through tariffs and continues his bombastic lying.

The media is owned by our oligarchs now.
