No Biden Pardon for Ukraine Impeachment
Hoaxer Alexander Vindman

Original Article

Posted By: OhioNick, 1/21/2025 4:15:55 AM

Former President Joe Biden, just hours before he left office, issued a flurry of preemptive pardons for his political allies — including retired Gen. Mark Milley, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and members of the J6 Committee — but skipped one for Ukraine impeachment hoaxer Alexander Vindman. Vindman’s wife, Rachel Vindman, took to Bluesky to whine about being left off the pardon list. “Whatever happens to my family, know this: No pardons were offered or discussed. I cannot begin to describe the level of betrayal and hurt I feel,” she posted.

"I cannot begin to describe the level of betrayal and hurt I feel" Why would she feel "betrayed" by Biden? Because Vindman was part of the "team" that was tasked to "get Trump" and now he isn't getting his "Get out of jail - Free" card? The dems always painted Vindman as a patriot, doing the right thing by calling out an out of control President. The reality is that the Chief Executive is in charge of the Executive Branch, not the agencies and departments that make it up. Vindman was an arrogant gnat that should have been fired the moment he effectively tried to force Trump to do things Vindman's way. Now Vindman's wife is suggesting he is owed some "protection" for services rendered. For being a good Deep State toady? I suspect we are going to see a lot of these "exposés" as their protection falls away and truth worms it way out. We will be finding out how the sausage was being made.

An unintentional oversight, no doubt. FJB barely even knew he was alive these past fopur years. Blame the staff. But if it was intentional, the despicable Alexander Vindman is running out of friends. He deserves none. He chose the wrong side, and now must pay. But how should he pay? One would suppose that great minds are considering just what to do. Many choices. Choose the best. Then let the dogs out.

Ohio AG joins three other states in lawsuit

Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost has joined Ohio with three other states in a federal lawsuit seeking to keep certain immigrants from being counted in the U.S. Census including those in the country illegally and those with temporary visas. The case was filed in U.S. District Court on Jan. 17 and also includes the attorneys general from Louisiana, West Virginia and Kansas. [SNIP] “Including illegal aliens in the apportionment base is inconsistent with the text of the Fourteenth Amendment because illegal aliens and nonimmigrant aliens are not inhabitants of the states,” the attorneys general stated.

Goodbye catch-and-release, hello catch-and-deport. Migrants who are caught illegally crossing the US border will no longer be set free in the US while they await their immigration hearings. Instead, they’ll be taken into custody until they can be deported, Homeland Security sources told The Post. Border Patrol agents were given the edict by the Trump administration on President Trump’s first full day in office Tuesday. It represents a seismic shift from the “catch-and-release” open border days of the Biden administration, during which around 8 million illegal immigrants flooded into the country.

Donald Trump quickly made good on his pledge to sever diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies in the federal government as he is set to fire all DEI hires by tomorrow. The new Trump administration sent a letter to all heads and acting heads of government agencies on Tuesday, informing them all federal employees in DEI roles must be placed on paid leave by 5pm Wednesday. All DEI offices in federal agencies are also being shuttered in the move, which comes after Trump signed an anti-DEI executive order in front of a cheering crowd at his inauguration on Monday.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams said Joe Biden's shocking response to his demands that the White House do something about the migrant crisis was to 'be a good Democrat, Eric.'

Donald Trump issued two executive orders launching investigations into Joe Biden's White House over institutional censorship and weaponization of law enforcement. The president signed at least 78 bills on Monday overturning various declarations and orders given out by his predecessor. Trump ordered that no federal officer, employee or agent may unconstitutionally abridge the free speech of any American citizen, an early step toward his campaign promise to dismantle what he called government 'censorship' of U.S. citizens. The president´s executive order, issued just hours after he was sworn in to a second term.

I’ve spent a lot of time speaking with President Donald Trump over the past few months and my expectations for his first 100 days in power are very high. Americans are about to witness a period of rapid change that will revolutionize their lives. For one, Trump knows that he must move fast. He has two years of nearly unfettered control of Washington DC, before mid-term elections threaten to undermine the Republican party’s slim majorities in the House and Senate. Secondly, Trump knows he has pulled off the greatest political comeback in American history – and he’s not about to squander his second chance.

Liberal protesters gathered around Washington, D.C., to express their disapproval of President Donald Trump's inauguration Monday. Trump succeeded former President Joe Biden after winning the election two months ago, which included the popular vote. Still, Trump has some outspoken adversaries. Among them were some who erected a makeshift guillotine in Malcolm X Park, also known as Meridian Hill Park. The phrase "come get sum" was painted on the crafted 20-foot-tall structure. Meanwhile, other protesters flanked it, one dressed as an executioner with their face covered, another holding a rainbow flag, and another with a sign that read, "The revolution is now."

Presidential teams have all sorts of players on them. And much as some might have hoped that after the first term, the Trump team would be ‘clean’, that’s proving not to be the case. The adoption of Biden’s disastrous surrendering to terrorist deal by Steve Witkoff, Trump’s Middle East envoy, appears to have saved Hamas. And we’re getting all sorts of leaks to the media by people supposedly on the Trump team blasting Israel and propping up Islamic terrorists in Gaza and Lebanon. The latest one is an NBC News story touting Witkoff and a larger ‘nation-building’ agenda for Gaza.

They’ve also made more than 50,000 criminal arrests, with more than 43,000 felony charges reported. They’ve also seized more than 622 million lethal doses of fentanyl – enough to kill everyone in the U.S., Mexico and Canada combined.

All of Joe Biden's preemptive pardons for the worst political malefactors in recent years are an insult to the rule of law, but one in particular sticks in my craw: Mark Milley. Why? I expect bureaucrats like Anthony Fauci to be ass-covering snakes with a lust for power and disdain for accountability, and I am confident that he will burn in hell and be remembered as the mass murderer that he is. I expect politicians like Liz Cheney, Adam Schiff, and the sc*mbags of the January 6th Committee to be liars who would sacrifice their souls for an extra minute on TV and an additional campaign dollar.

The Trump administration has reportedly reassigned more than a dozen career Justice Department officials, including one who played a central role in pushing for the FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago. The new assignments – given to at least 15 longtime officials – will see the federal employees remain within DOJ but in the roles where they are expected to wield less influence on the department’s major decision, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday. Some officials were notified they were being transferred just hours after President Trump was sworn-in on Monday, according to the outlet.

President Donald Trump was left in disbelief as he was forced to listen to a woke bishop deliver a stunningly negative sermon calling for him to show 'mercy' to illegal immigrants and transgender children. On the first full day of Trump's presidency Marianne Budde, the left-wing Episcopal Bishop of Washington, unleashed a wild lecture claiming trans kids were 'fearing for their lives' due to him being in the Oval Office. Trump sat stony-faced in the front row, next to First Lady Melania Trump, as the prelate told him illegal immigrants were not criminals and he shouldn't deport those with children.

Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld apparently had enough of co-host Jessica Tarlov’s shenanigans about the second Trump presidency and the slew of executive orders that have virtually undone everything Joe Biden did over the past four years. In 36 hours, an entire presidency was revoked. Tarlov asked Gutfeld about birthright citizenship, which led to Gutfeld unleashing an epic tirade against liberal America being incapable of understanding this moment. First, on the immigration questions, Gutfeld aptly noted that you don’t need to like everything in a restaurant to like the establishment. That’s the typical authoritarian tendency of the Left—you must like or comply with everything they say, including candidates.

MSNBC’s Rev. Al Sharpton called on all Americans to boycott companies eliminating diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, claiming they are trying to send Black people to the “back of the bus.” Sharpton made the announcement at Metropolitan AME Church in Washington, D.C., during a rally in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day on Monday. He said this call to action would be done in the spirit of King’s legacy as a civil rights activist. “Why do we have DEI?

Trump’s historic order commuted the sentences of about a dozen individuals and pardoned “all individuals convicted of offenses related to event that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.” It ordered that those “currently held in prison are released immediately.” But the thugs who have so abused and trampled the rights of the J6ers

The Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington gave an insultingly political speech that excoriated President Trump for...being President Trump, basically. Episcopal Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde took the opportunity to slam President Trump at the National Prayer Service, where he sat among many of the nation's leaders. The idea of the Prayer Service is to unify the attendees and remind them that we are all one nation under God. It was appalling in every way, no doubt coming from a leftist who speaks endlessly about love, compassion, and unity.

For the more liturgically-minded readers and those wayward Episcopalians, the order of service can be found here. A certain amount of ecumenicism is to be expected and appreciated at such a service. Jesse J. Swann, Jr., chief of the Piscataway Conoy Tribe, gave the invocation. Rabbi Susan N. Shankman read from Deuteronomy 10:17-21, and cantor Susan Bortnick offered the Jewish call to prayer.

But while most of the speakers acquitted themselves well, a female Episcopalian "bishop" decided to fulfill the far-left's wildest dreams by directing a woke tangent at the president. During Mariann Budde's "sermon," she ranted about "transgender children" and asked Trump to have "mercy" on those who are "scared" of his administration, including those who "pick our crops."
