A pardon is a governmental decision to absolve an individual for a criminal conviction, often times freeing him from all or part of the punishment imposed at sentencing. Pardons are typically granted by the President, or by individual state governors, usually to absolve individuals, but may be granted, in certain circumstances, for groups of people. Federal pardons are granted by the President of the United States, and each state’s law dictates with whom the power to grant state pardons lies. To explore this concept, consider the following pardon definition.
Seems like it does indeed imply there is a crime and punishment .
in what world do they issue pardons (To release (a person) from punishment or disfavor for wrongdoing or a fault: synonym: forgive. from dictionary.com) to people that were never even considered to have been at fault or done no wrong??
the title of the article says "CHINA suggests it's open to a US deal for TikTok after all" meaning that when ByteDance went in front of the US lawmakers and said "we are not in china, nor a chineese company" that some part of that must be false as now CHINA is saying that they are open to it.
Which is because they didnt wanna smear the office of the president, and they control the DOJ. We should just move that to a 6 year cycle election. But even then its not like election are by an informed people to start so I guess this is just fucking another thing that we can be like we are fucked on.
I just dont think that it is how the law is written to work, if I can forgive you for crimes not yet noted, then why not the other way around and charge you for crimes not actually done (read: thought crime).
ohhh I didnt read to clarify as I figured it was the only federal charges that were outstanding. Thank you for putting me straight on this issue. So its just as it always is, theater.
I would love to see the federal laws on graffiti. I mean I know the FBI has nothing better to do, but I would think non destructive vandalism would be very under say, paying minors to have sex with you like some reports they would have access too would show.
