I hope a Biden Pardon Bullseye landed on Pelosi. Investigate her stellar stock-picking performance, and if not squeaky-clean, spend the money repairing the sewage system for Palisades or something.
What is the downside for a jailed J6er, convicted or otherwise, of accepting a pardon? I don't see any. The proceedings are rigged. If not convicted yet, they will be. If convicted, a pardon clears them. None benefited materially from their supposed crimes. Most were non-violent, so it's hard to imagine a civil case would be brought.
Here’s the thing about Milley: He was on active duty when he betrayed his country. And those in the Armed Forces forfeit their Constitutional rights and subject themselves to the UCMJ. If Trump recalls Milley to active duty, which he can while he’s in the Inactive Ready Reserve (a term lasting for a decade following retirement, at least for the enlisted) for a court martial, does that nullify the previous president’s pardon?
Revoke all of Milley's clearances. He won't be able to work for DOD contractors, consulting on classified programs. Without even a SECRET clearance, he may not be able to do much of anything that a DOD contractor would want him to do.
AND/OR
Recall him and make him the Minot AFB (ND) Gym Officer. He can hand out basketballs to dependents during the swing shift.
For some of these people, measures like that could be a very real punishment--if they were counting on cashing in. Since accepting a pardon is an admission of guilt, revocation of clearances should be a no-brainer.

Does that mean Fauci loses the royalties on SARS-CoV-2 patents and other payoffs from Pfizer and Moderna?
That's the really interesting question. There has to be an underlying crime--some sort of fraud in these circumstances I would guess. If so, then ...
I want to see Jamie Raskin (& Adam Schiff) punished.
Make up a crime, I don't care. They did evil things.
The photo of Melania: trying to recall which Clint Eastwood role has that hat & steely stare.

Above my pay grade, but I've seen others ask exactly that question. I'd luv to see Trump give that a try.
DeSantis has already convened a grand jury in FL over COVID. Let’s hope it bears fruit.
Also, Milley can still face a court martial.
What do you say they should look at forfeiting those fat government pensions that Fauci and Milley have for starters?
