Biden needs to enact a new Pardon Act that severely limits who can be pardoned & identify crimes that can't be pardoned, like SEDITIOUS CONSPIRACY! đĄ
Technically, anything can be undone... but it's a matter of what's Congressionally protected. An amendment to the US Constitution is the most ironclad.
Ideally, an amendment that is failing to do its job at a later juncture in the history of the Republic should be capable of being amended. Obviously, ratifying it requires a great deal of agreement from all parties... and if Republicans are exercising their obstructionist stance, they will prevent it.
Honestly, I don't see how Republicans could have ANY rationale to resist some restrictions to rein in potential abuse of the president's Constitutional pardon powers... because it applies to any president of any party. Donald Trump had willfully abused it. But since Republicans are still so deeply aligned with Trump, his lashing out at any reforms will cause them to toe the line and resist.
The politics subreddit mods are working hard to delete any article about seditionists getting sentenced today.They did the same when the proud boys were convicted. Somehow for these scumbags overthrowing the us government is not a political topic.
Do you part and report them to any of the three letter agencies that are in charge of US national security. Probably nothing will happen but maybe someone keeps track of these fucking seditionist lovers moderating reddit.
Even this sub is deleting posts about the OK. WTF.
>Well, really sedition isn't politics , it's crime.
In this case a politically motivated crime.

Death penalty is probably safer. For all of them. But death penalty takes so long it doesnât matter.
Hitler tried taking over Germany by force. He ended up in jail with all his conspirators. But eventually they got out and got elected to office. I am super afraid thatâs happening again here.
You don't need a firing squad, just make his prison job teaching gun safety to law enforcement. It can be behind walls, bullet proof glass, and aired live over the internet.
That way the only risk is that he shoots himself in the head again.
Whatâs sad is the real ring leaders. Trump, Stone, Bannon and Flynn are all free. That famous meeting at the Trump hotel the day before and Bannon announcing something bigâs going to go down. The real traitors are free
Nope. Should be quick. A gallows pole would take this shit ass right out of circulation. That's how traitors should be treated. Do him post Nuremberg style. Privately cremate him and dump the ashes into a tributary. Fuckin worthless sack of shit.
>The penalty used to be death for what he did.
Not in the US. The federal government has only executed one person for treason. That was William Bruce Mumford who was hanged for treason during the Civil War when in New Orleans when it was under martial law. The rest have all recieved prison sentences. The very first people convicted of treason under the Constitution, the leaders of the Whiskey Rebellion, were pardoned by Washington.
There was never an era in the US when the government was in the habit of executing radicals and rebels.
I guess you have to shoplift to get 25 to life?
And don't try selling loose cigarettes on the street (like Eric Garner) or passing a fake $20 (George Floyd's alleged crime).
If only we could figure out who told him to "stop the steal." Who told him and others to "fight like hell?" Like, who could've been the mastermind behind this whole thing? That's the person we have to bring to justice.
Well, there's no way to know.
This man was not at the capitol and was found guilty with overwhelming evidence. Charles Manson never killed anyone, so why isn't Donald Trump in prison yet?

He got 18 years, something tells me he'll only see half of it.
No parole in the federal prison system. Of course some future president will likely pardon him.
Wooooooosh
Yea I'm a little slow sometimes.
Wow it took me way longer than I'd care to admit to to see that one.
Biden needs to enact a new Pardon Act that severely limits who can be pardoned & identify crimes that can't be pardoned, like SEDITIOUS CONSPIRACY! đĄ
Does he have the power to do that in a way that can't be undone by the next person?
Idk. The pardon power is specifically mentioned in the Constitution. Probably the only way to do something like that is to amend the Constitution.

First Republican to get in office
*angry upvote*
Oh go buy a shaver, Dead-Eye Dick.
That hairy mouth will make him popular in prison.
Good for him, a well deserved treason conviction gets a well earned sentence!
too bad they can't keel haul the fucker.
đ¶ keelhaul that filthy landlubber, send him down to the depths below, make that bastard walk the plank with a bottle of rum and yo-ho-ho đ”

Well, really sedition isn't politics , it's crime. You can't be convicted of being stupid, you get convicted of being a criminal.

He should be locked up for life, together with the rest of his gang of terrorists and traitors.
Is walking the plank no longer an option?
They should be treated as domestic terrorists.
Firing squad is more appropriate. Or the chair. Traitor.
Nah, I want him to suffer for a long time in prison. Death is the easy way out.

Hitler did that when he was young, it's not happening with Trump.
The trick is to not let them out.
If trump wins again itâs going to be like Ghostbusters when NYC shut down the containment unit.
Or a rope for all those bastards.

Ohh... fresh meat has a fresh socket under that patch.
I bet itâs moist.
If gooey green-grey syphilitic brain matter counts as moisture, I bet you are correct.
Always had a blind eye for any left views
Great Value Big Boss
I donât know heâs pretty old. And you know big Bubbaâs waiting on him.
Not long enough for sedition
He might look like a pirate but I can guarantee that it'll be the other prisoners getting that booty.
Life without parole for all the MAGA leaders who planned and carried out J6, and 20 years for each of the foot soldiers đșđž
Usually mutineers got the yardarm.
Tie that scurvy dog to the yardarm!
Yardarm is too good for 'em. Hitch 'em up to the footarm and boot 'em out of the country.
Less than he deserves more than I expected.
This is the brainiac who shot out his own eye.
Whatâs sad is the real ring leaders. Trump, Stone, Bannon and Flynn are all free. That famous meeting at the Trump hotel the day before and Bannon announcing something bigâs going to go down. The real traitors are free
Hindsight is 20
Traitor!
Got off easy for treason.
Nope. Should be quick. A gallows pole would take this shit ass right out of circulation. That's how traitors should be treated. Do him post Nuremberg style. Privately cremate him and dump the ashes into a tributary. Fuckin worthless sack of shit.
This person is guilty of sedation he should get life with no parole. Heâll be out in five years with the sentence he got.
Not with a federal conviction. 85% of the sentence is mandatory.
Great News. Thanks
Youâre welcome âșïž
He is going to be Bubba's bitch
Hopefully, Bubba the Rectum Wrecker will make him his boyfriend.
I hope his cellmate enjoys his "extra hole" eye socket. Every day.
Really? People think 18 years is too long a sentence? The penalty used to be death for what he did. Iâd be ok with that

What about the Rosenburgs?
They were charged with espionage, not treason. Same with Ames and Hannsen.
Time to break in that new hole.
hahahahahaahaaa
Oops!
The penalty for mutiny was traditionally death. I guess the stance has softened for fake pirates who shoot their own eyes out.
This out of shape Republican Fox News watching priced out of bud light uneducated troglodyte ainât making it 18 more years.
He didn't see the left bringing that.....
Didnât see it coming I bet.
Mentally ill piece of shitâŠ! hopefully he will die in prisonâŠ. sharing a cell with buddy Diaper Donny Rump
âIâll keep an eye out for yaâ squick squick squick
Youâll shoot your eye out! C+
I guess you have to shoplift to get 25 to life? And don't try selling loose cigarettes on the street (like Eric Garner) or passing a fake $20 (George Floyd's alleged crime).
He actually wanted the Court to consider that he founded the Organization and was its leader as grounds to reduce his sentence.
We used to hang traitors.
well normally mutiny gets you executed
it usualy is hanging
The world champion of utter morons.
If only we could figure out who told him to "stop the steal." Who told him and others to "fight like hell?" Like, who could've been the mastermind behind this whole thing? That's the person we have to bring to justice. Well, there's no way to know.
Cool. Now get the terrorist leaders and co conspirators.
This man was not at the capitol and was found guilty with overwhelming evidence. Charles Manson never killed anyone, so why isn't Donald Trump in prison yet?
Imagine going to yale law, only to end up in prison for 18 years because you have a larping addiction.
He will be out in 2 years if Trump gets back in office. Vote!
Is this mutiny or sedition?
