Summary
Trump vowed to pardon individuals jailed for their role in the January 6 Capitol attack on his first day in office, reiterating his campaign promise.
Trump criticized the justice system and the conditions faced by those detained, many of whom pleaded guilty.
Over 1,500 people have been charged in connection with January 6.
Trump also discussed empowering his incoming Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel to investigate political rivals.
President Biden is reportedly considering preemptive pardons for key figures targeted by Trump.
Osama bin Laden killed around 2,977 directly and many others indirectly. Trump killed a lot more with his cuts to benefits and his abysmal covid response, and emboldening of many, many of the vilest elements of society. But guess what? He is still walking free even if he has been convicted of 34 felonies and is guilty of many others (including violent ones) and by all accounts should be spending the rest of his life in prison.
Osama was a chump compared to Trump.
The number I’ve seen is 800,000 dying due to the shitty Covid response compared to other countries. If even a fraction of that is accurate, it’s a staggering number.
I remember shortly before new years 2020, around Christmas time, Trump’s administration cut a lot of funding for Meals on Wheels programs that would have fed thousands of people. It was as if he was desperate to be the ultimate scrooge.
Good news was supposed these were mostly his voters, but that doesn’t seem to have worked well.
