Biden is a dirt bag, and a 50+ year professional criminal, and the leader of a family of criminals. To bad he didn't croak with Carter; could have had a BOGO on good riddance funerals. But since he's all in for democracy and not dividing the country, he did the right thing.

Biden is admitting his family is guilty by issuing the pardons.

Belinda Kitchen

No cause basically he admitted his whole family is guilty! I think Biden had it all planned out and he is dirty! Now Trump will get us all on the right path and drill baby drill !!!!! Like it should have always been!

Max

Max

That has been going on since the Prophet Muhammad found the Muslim church in 610 AD.

It would take congress years to make a decision, and the amount of pork required would be phenomenal. Congress is dysfunctional.

Max

Most congressmen are millionaires, but our nation is nearly $40 Trillion in debt.

Max

Congress can't even pass a budget to fund the government.
