The pardon serves as an attempt to shield the Biden family from accountability for widespread corruption and illicit foreign financial dealings.

“They knew they were funneling money to a drug addict and they knew that could cost him his life. They didn't care because they wanted the money to keep coming in to the Biden crime family.”

The pardon is a detrimental blow to Joe Biden’s legacy and ironically validates previous criticisms regarding the laptop.

“Now, with in one fell [clears throat] swoop, Biden basically proved his haters right. That there was something in that laptop. And I hate to say it, but it's just true. This is just a black eye to his legacy.”

The scope and length of the pardon suggest it is intended to cover extensive corruption and illicit financial activity beyond just the stated offenses.

“And the scope and the length into which he has given this pardon 11 years for almost actually for everything. It is a full pardon for anything. It draws the question, what else was he doing?”

President Biden's decision to pardon his son is a mistake that harms the Democratic Party and helps Donald Trump by undermining the argument that Trump is uniquely corrupt.

“The reason I'm so pissed off about what Joe Biden did is it's wrong it sets a horrible precedent but it helps Trump”

Victor Davis Hanson claims that Joe Biden's frequent use of preemptive pardons has diminished his moral authority.

“I don't know what to make of it they lost as you said the moral High Ground”

The pardons of individuals like Anthony Fauci are a major affront because they involve deep state actors who engaged in crimes against humanity.

“if Dr fouchi to me who has crimes against humanity okay is going to walk free for the rest of his life and get secret service protection that I'm paying for to hell with that I wanted everybody from January 6 out”

The pardoning of individuals involved in the January 6th attack on the US Capitol is unacceptable.

“the pardons of the violent criminals on January 6 is unacceptable except for the fact that it was super obvious that he was going to do it”

Winston Pingeon argues that a blanket pardon for participants in the January 6th attack, especially those who committed violence, is offensive.

“but as Trump says they were sent to jail for their crimes Joe Biden's vast wave of parting pardons including a notorious cop killer mean we can never find out if some of his allies and relatives ever committed crimes in the first place”

Hasan Piker contends that Donald Trump's pardoning of individuals involved in the January 6th attack, including those convicted of violent crimes against police, is a pro-criminal act.

“I think when you're soft on criminals, when you let criminals out of prison, when you pardon people who have assaulted police officers, you're pro- criminal. Donald Trump pardoned almost 1,600 people who were involved in January the 6th.”

The issuance of a preemptive pardon for Anthony Fauci is unjustifiable and represents a dangerous assault on law and order.

“I'm not bothered by the pens so much as by the whole concept of a preemptive pardon which seems to me to be an enormous assault on Law and Order it suggests that there is nothing that Anthony fouchy could have done that the Democrats would consider worthy of prosecution how can you possibly say that”

A president has the absolute right to use the pardon power and exercising that power does not constitute corruption.

“surely you would agree there's nothing corrupt about a president using the pardon power which he has the absolute right to do.”

A president has the absolute legal authority to issue pardons, even those that are morally questionable or corrupt.

“the president does have the absolute power to pardon it's like a get out of jail free card even if it's a terrible pardon even if it's a corrupt pardon even if it sucks even if it's a country even if you fill in the blank the president's pardon is a get out of jail free card”

A president cannot pardon themselves because constitutional law contains a background principle that no one should be a judge in their own case.

“I don't know if a court would even decide I mean there's this basic principle in the law that no one should be a judge in his or her own case and that's kind of the basis of the conclusion”

“I don't know I don't know if a court would even decide I mean there's this basic principle in the law that no one should be a judge in his or her own case and that's kind of the basis of the conclusion and the oh I'll say opinion that it can't be that the constitution allows for self-pardons”
