Trump previously said Americans were ‘rightly sickened’ by Chauvin’s conduct
They really are trying to get us to riot so they can Crack down even harder aren’t they.
Wow so I guess everyone’s just going all in on the whole fascism speedrun thing
Well, Chauvin is serving 20+ years on federal charges and 20+ years on state charges
Trump can’t pardon state charges
He wanted to do his time at a federal prison for safety as part of his plea deal. Maybe a pardon sends his ass back to state prison.
Can you pardon someone against their will?
Seems they can reject it, like the one J6 MAGA-ite who did.
I think you can decline it.
Cast him down with the sodomites
General population
That’s perfect, then! He can pardon him, really underscoring just how out of touch MAGA is, while also being totally and utterly impotent.
I’m certain the Governor of Minnesota won’t be handing out a pardon in his case.
He will last exactly 30 seconds on the street. You can’t have people follow law and order if you refuse to follow the law and order imposed by the people.
A jury found him guilty, by pardoning him you are making the claim that a trial by jury is not honored and this will cause vigilante justice.
He has state charges as well so he will go to state prison
You want riots? Cuz that’s how you get riots. Then again, they totally want riots.
I’m genuinely worried there’s going to be a US Tiananmen Square equivalent at this point. And I don’t just mean the massacre, but the attempts to cover it up as much as possible.
All while the world just sits back and hums loudly.
Trump did praise China for that massacre before
Of. Fucking. Course. He. Did.
What a goddamn anti-human demon.
a federal pardon only moves him from a (relatively) safe federal institution out-of-state, back home to minnesota–and a potentially much more hostile environment, to serve out his longer state sentence (and iirc, scotus has already rejected an appeal of state conviction)
While i do agree that they want riots so they can do shit like martial law and all that, I think they’re underestimating how pissed off everyone is. There’s only so much bullshit they can expect us to put up with in such a short amount of time which I think is the biggest mistake they are making. Their “rapid fire” approach is only accelerating everyone’s anger faster than if they were subtly destroying everything over the course of months.
I think they’re underestimating how pissed off everyone is.
Guy Fawkes masks and Luigi caps are all on backorder, with no ship dates before December 4th.
a large group of people wearing both of those would certainly be a memorable visual
Performative cruelty honestly
Do it, I fucking dare you.
