Parting Gift - Biden considers commuting the sentences of federal death row inmates: report

The old scrotum must be mad and if he goes ahead then this is the ultimate fuck you to the victims and families of the victims.

As President Biden's term comes to an end, he is reportedly considering commuting the sentences of most, if not all, of the 40 men on the federal government’s death row.

The Wall Street Journal, citing sources familiar with the matter, reported that the move would frustrate President-elect Trump's plan to streamline executions as he takes office in January.

Attorney General Merrick Garland, who oversees federal prisons, recommended that Biden commute all but a handful of egregious sentences, the sources said.

The outlet reported that possible exceptions could include Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the 2013 Boston Marathon bomber who killed three and wounded more than 250; Robert Bowers, who killed 11 people in the 2018 attack on the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh; and Dylann Roof, who in 2015 killed nine at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina.

Those who could see their death sentences commuted to life in prison include an ex-Marine who killed two young girls and later a female naval officer, a Las Vegas man convicted of kidnapping and killing a 12-year-old girl, a Chicago podiatrist who fatally shot a patient to keep her from testifying in a Medicare fraud investigation and two men convicted in a kidnapping-for-ransom scheme that resulted in the killings of five Russian and Georgian immigrants.

As usual, it's the fuckups that ruin it for everyone else. 

Like it or not, the presidential pardons are written into the constitution. 

But it was never meant for it to be completely, and obscenely abused like it is now.

That seriously needs to be looked at now.

 

Never in our history has it been used in such a scorched earth manner.

Just continues to cement his legacy as the worst, most corrupt and vile, president in history. 

 

Open borders, deliberately letting in countless vicious criminals. 

Political prisoners, set up by our own law enforcement agencies.

And now these pardons, and commutations. 

And all by, a now openly admitted vegetable from day one.

I guess we should just feel lucky if he doesn’t empty all the prisons. 
 

Like I said in another thread, I wish they could find a way to reverse these based on his mental fitness to make such decisions, but I’m sure they won’t even try, and that’s probably the best in the long run, unfortunately. 

I don’t want to have to pay Manny any more royalties, so I’ll just say “ what Manny  says” .

Why do these bastards sit so long on death row ? It is a waste of honest tax payers hard earned money.

South Africa has a few thousands of murderers serving life....paid for by our tax money whilst there are kids that are hungry and can't even afford clothes/shoes for school.

Joey beat me to it....

 

The pardon/commutation wording needs to be changed.

 

It's absolutely disgusting how this administration openly shits on the American people.      ...and even worse, the dumb fucks who support it.

Hey guys please remember Zacka161 said Biden and the Democrat's out perform Republicans in EVERY metric possible period the end!

 

Nothing says "saving democracy " and  " no one is above the law"  like commuting, pardoning and releasing  violent and sexual predators like what's going on now.

 

I don't approve of how all former president's have done it but the scope and scale of what Biden and his handlers are doing is truly disgusting and an embarrassment to this nation.

 

Period the end Zacka

If I ever run the zoo any sentence over 10 years will be shortened to ten days and a nice meal, their last one.

Guess where I'd be if I had committed the crimes that Hunter committed. 

Anyways, it's fucking wrong what's going on. 

Crazy shit going on here in South Africa. The whole of our presidency is corrupt, townships are unsafe, murders, rapes, violent robberies, smash n grabs at traffic lights....and God help you if you shoot one of these criminals..

Laws are seriously fucked up here...the fucking criminals have better "rights" the the honest man on the street.

I'm 100% all for the death sentence if 100% proven guilty...and they need to exterminate the bastards quickly to save money.

I see the Boston bomber is also on the list for a pardon.....what a crock of shit. 

 

Will biden pardon Derek Chauvin who was only doing his job???? I don't give a flying fuck for George floyd....he was a bad citizen with no respect for authority. 

Moral decay is getting worse everyday......geezuz, my wife is scared to drive to the store. She was recently robbed. Two fuckers attacked her at the traffic lights. One smashed the drivers side window and grabbed her by the hair and beat her whilst the other fucker stole all the groceries off the back seat. 

It pisses me off what biden is doing. I feel so sorry for the families who have lost loved ones to these scumbags. It's fucking criminal what he is considering doing. Fuck biden and fuck the South African National Congress government.

That's off my chest now...I feel a tad better.

I suppose it goes without saying, or perhaps has been mentioned already, but it's highly unlikely these pardons and commutations are coming from Biden. 

More than likely they are just passing through Biden.

Wonder if this is George Soros behind the scenes, calling in favors for the billions he has given the Dems over the years?

He was the $$$ behind all of the progressive DA's getting elected, with the pledge to go soft on crime. 

So for some reason he seems to think criminals are the victims, and victims are the criminals.

Nope. Not caught. 

People with out work sit in the side of the road often around traffic lights. They all look the same.

Most of these guys and girls are genuinely looking for work and then you have the swine amongst them looking for soft targets.

Not included on the list was Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who was convicted in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing that killed three people and injured more than 260 people, Robert Bowers, convicted in the 2018 Tree of Life synagogue mass shooting in Pittsburgh that left 11 people dead, and Dylann Roof, who was convicted in the 2015 Charleston, South Carolina, mass shooting at Mother Emanuel African American church that left nine dead.

US President Joe Biden on Monday commuted the sentences for 37 out of 40 federal inmates on death row, converting them to life in prison without parole before he hands over power to President-elect Donald Trump on 20 January.

Biden’s move will frustrate Trump’s plan to resume a rapid pace of executions. Unlike executive orders, clemency decisions cannot be reversed by a president’s successor, although the death penalty can be sought more aggressively in future cases.

Trump restarted federal executions after a nearly 20-year pause during his first term in office from 2017 to 2021.

Biden, who ran for president opposing the death penalty, put federal executions on hold when he took office in January 2021.

 

In recent weeks, he has faced pressure from congressional Democrats, opponents of capital punishment and religious leaders such as Pope Francis to commute federal death sentences before he leaves.

“Make no mistake: I condemn these murderers, grieve for the victims of their despicable acts, and ache for all the families who have suffered unimaginable and irreparable loss,” said Biden.

“But guided by my conscience and my experience … I am more convinced than ever that we must stop the use of the death penalty at the federal level,” he said. “In good conscience, I cannot stand back and let a new administration resume executions that I halted.”

James Buchanan takes the title of worst president. He basically teed-up the Civil War which killed millions and nearly destroyed the country.  Ole Jimmy makes Joey look pedestrian.

Why? 

Because it's what he and his party have been doing for years.     Coddling and encouraging criminals, law-breakers while saying "Fuck you" to the American public.  

One can only hope voters recall this shit 2 and 4 years from now .
