    If Biden isn’t busy writing pardons for every single person who voted for Kamala Harris, he’s wasting his time.

    It’s not about it being his son, it’s about the fact that when push comes to shove, we’re in a class war, and whether they’re relatives (Biden & son) or just “friends” (GWBush & Iran Contra), what we have is a massive amount of class solidarity on the side of wealthy politicians, and that solidarity has been there for 50 years or more.

    He will write pardons for people in his administration, but they won’t do anything to protect any of us. They’re just gonna hand the reigns to Trump & Co. and say “good luck.”

    I don’t care that he pardoned his son when it comes to painfully obviously partisan attacks, what I care about is that he refuses to extend the same care to all of his constituents. His son matters more than the rest of us to him, which is normal, but also… sorry, if you signed up for this job (President), you’re supposed to care about the lives of all Americans, not just your own shitty fuckup of a kid.

    I’ll give a fuck about this issue when he stands up for regular Americans. Otherwise, saving the asses of those closest to you is par for the course for the wealthy and politically connected.
