You mean, Ken Starr like saying, “The president was not advised by counsel in deciding to do this tweet. Extraordinarily poor judgment… Obviously this was quite injurious," on Faux News? (I do love a well-curated twitter feed.)

"In today’s America, conservatives who actually want to conserve are as rare as liberals who actually want to liberate. The once-significant language of an earlier era has had the meaning sucked right out of it, the better to serve as camouflage for a kleptocratic feeding frenzy in which both establishment parties participate with equal abandon" (Taking a break from the criminal, incompetent liars at the NSA, to bring you the above political observation, from The Archdruid Report.)
So, Trump is desperate for some sort of distraction to get his bases attention again, so what did he find?
Trump grants clemency to 2 Army officers accused of war crimes, restores rank to Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher
Oh. This again. The amount of damage this amoral national disgrace of a President is doing to the Military cannot be over exaggerated. Trump is making it very clear that killing brown people is ok, no matter what the military justice system says about it. This sort of crap endangers every one of our Soldiers overseas, by making it clear to the people of those countries that our Soldiers are bound by absolutely no rules or laws under this President.
This outrages me in an incredibly deeply personal way. I spent a significant part of my life keeping a bunch of angry and confused young men from devolving into murderous criminals in these environments, and I only succeeded because the Military does a good job of giving us a legal structure that holds us accountable for our actions during these deployments. Trump is undermining the very principles of military justice and law of war for fleeting cheers at his pep rallies.
This right here is why we need President Pence right now. He is still a horrible person, but he isn't going to be unraveling the fabric of American power and decency on a whim.
That whole thing was never about anything else but "one-upping" Obama, a president the rest of the world actually largely held respect for. Obama got one, and thus Trump should too, according to them.
It's as much of a joke now as it was back then. There's no shortage of more deserving candidates than a man at who's direction the US is separating immigrant children from their parents, and keeping them in large camps under poor conditions.
It’s hard for them to be effective sea lions when great white sharks keep biting them in half.
It’s quite pleasant around here without them, I must say. I’d like to think they’re watching this thread closely, seething at their own inability to come up with a proper response... though I’m sure in reality they more or less just dip in with a hit-and-run shitpost before slinking away back into the dark, content that they’ve proved their loyalty to trump for the week.

Words to live by.
Found this joke on r/jokes on Reddit.
If Trump really wanted Hillary locked up he should have hired her.
I think he's only facing 20.
Stone's out on bail. Bail typically continues until sentencing, I think. Plus I don't think you get taken to jail if your appeal is heard.
Also, Monkey D Luniz is also right: Stone is rich. The system isn't even close to fair. Stone probably had steak that night while children taken from their families die in dog cages.
Im not as certain on the pardon since Trump cares more about what he gets, and after his pardon for Joe Arpaio got him a "meh" from the GOP outside of Arizona, and then the warning that pardons mean you admit guilt, and it might well remove 5th amendment protections on the subject. He stopped giving them out to friends, and has stuck to the "this will make you like me now right?" pardons of random people that celebrities and Fox toss infront of him
for his loyal criminal allies that carried him to office, he'll just dangle the pardon in front of them like that geiko commercial
