When I saw the title I initially read it as "Biden passes out. Nixon pardons..." and said "oh no, what happened to him now?" xD

So Vance’s case by case pardons for J6 didn’t age well

I assume Trump's fascination with McKinley likely has to do with McKinley's assassination and the mountain was one of the few things named after McKinley.

I'm still catching up on the last couple of episodes, but enjoyed this one. Is there going to be a bigger discussion on the new coins? Popular Info had an interesting article on it https://popular.info/p/the-inauguration-of-a-multi-billion

I can only imagine that the abuse of presidential pardons won't inspire faith in the rule of law. We all know that tends to end well.

FYI, the controversy over marc rich was two fold

1) Youre not supposed to pardon fugatives from justice. Marc Rich wasnt in jail, he never underwent trail. He fled to Switzerland when indicted. At the time, Swiss wouldnt extradite out of Switzerland for tax charges in another country.

2) some folks had the temerity to think that Clinton pardoned because Marc's ex wife donated 80 million to the Clinton library building fund BEFORE the pardon.
