POTUS: A Sharpie Is Always Needed

That should go over well in Illinois...
Like a lead baloon.

Leading elected Illinois Republicans recoiled Thursday at the prospect that President Donald Trump would commute disgraced former Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s 14-year prison sentence and warned it could put the GOP in a deeper hole in trying to fight one-party Democratic control of the state in next year’s elections.

Illinois House Republican leader Jim Durkin of Western Springs said that in considering relief for the former Democratic governor, the Republican president was acting out of his own political self-interest and was attempting to make Blagojevich a “folk hero” while continuing to grind a personal ax against a federal Justice Department that investigated Trump and his former 2016 campaign.
“It’s a Republican president who’s going to provide executive relief to a disgraced, corrupt former Democratic governor,” said Durkin, who was the lead GOP member in the decade-old House impeachment proceedings.

“When you have these actions at the top of the ticket, that come right home here in Illinois … people are going to question Republicans up and down. It just doesn’t help our jobs,” Durkin, a former prosecutor, said.

Jon Stewart sure had a lot of fun with Blagojevich.

It just proves it. Rich white collar criminals don't belong in jail per Republicans. They didn't do anything wrong. All they did was capitalism. Nothing wrong with that.

What this tells me is white collar crime needs capital punishment. Let Dump pardon the corpses.

I think we can officially call the rule of law dead in America. I wouldn't try anything if you don't have a large bank account though. But, if you're rich, go for it.

Will the next President be able to fix that? I hope so.

Interesting nugget. Rachel Maddow said last night that she asked the outgoing members of the Obama administration what they feared the most with a Trump Presidency. So, this was back in late 2016/early 2017. They said their number one fear (lock her up chants at every rally) was that they would try (should have said use because that's what happened) the DOJ as a weapon.

Well, here we are.

I blame Obama. I asked him repeatedly to give us back to Queen Elizabeth before he left office and he didn't. Instead he quoted Anne Frank in his farewell speech, which would have been more inspirational if they hadn't, you know, killed her.
