If Biden does grant mass pardons, there may be a benefit for America

The Democrat party owns the administrative state, which means the DOJ and all the three-letter agencies. Even with new management, the foot soldiers are unreliable. The Democrat party also owns a large part of the federal judiciary. The Trump administration can bring indictments, but it’s questionable whether it can effectively prosecute the cases—and Democrats know this.

...

However, I’d like you to imagine a different scenario—a better one for America—if Joe Biden does give blanket pardons.

In that case, Congress must immediately convene hearings and call in these pardoned people to testify about everything—that is, what they knew and when they knew it. Subjects would include, but not be limited to, the Russia Hoax, including the Steele Dossier; the fake Ukraine impeachment; what happened before, during, and after January 6; every single thing about COVID; and, depending on who gets pardoned, about Epstein and Diddy.

If the pardoned insiders are under oath, they must answer because they can no longer hide behind the Fifth Amendment’s protection from self-incrimination. Moreover, the “I don’t remember” tactic must be viewed with incredible suspicion. After all, everyone understands that it’s just a backdoor way to avoid self-incrimination. The pardoned must confess all. Failing that, into prison they go for contempt of Congress.

What we’ll end up having if Congress stays strong and the Attorney General takes contempt seriously is the equivalent of South Africa’s “truth and reconciliation” hearings. While we won’t have the satisfaction of seeing people who engaged in criminal acts go to prison, something more important might happen: Americans will finally learn the full story of Democrat party corruption. That could (and should) end the Democrat party for a generation, and that’s a much more satisfying outcome than having political fighting about fair or unfair prosecutions.

I will suggest it’s all BS. A fair number of these people that they talk over....are on Joe’s S*it-list. He’ll discuss it, but I think he’ll dump the whole thing in the final 48 hours. Pelosi, for one...won’t get a pardon.
