Earlier, we told you the unsurprising news that Joe Biden issued preemptive pardons to Anthony Fauci, Mark Milley, and the January 6 Committee.

It's his latest assault on 'no one is above the law', and a slap in the face to the concept of justice. But that's who Biden is and has always been.

Jonathan Turley put out a short thread on why this is just the latest act in a line of presidential performative art:

Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) ~ President Biden has pardoned Dr. Fauci, General Milley, and members of the House Jan. 6 committee and their staff. With his declaration that the Equal Rights Amendment is suddenly part of the Constitution, it is the latest use of presidential powers as a type of performative art.

Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) ~ I previously wrote how these "white knight" pardons would be used to sustain the "death of democracy" narrative by claiming that, but for Biden, enemies would have been rounded up and frog marched to the federal pen.

Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) ~ In reality, these pardons will not absolutely protect these individuals from being subpoenaed to give new testimony on prior claims. Lying in such interviews or hearings would constitute new criminal acts.

This needs to happen.

Call them up. Make them testify and nail them if they commit perjury.

Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) ~ In the case of Fauci, some members such as Sen. Paul have suggested that he lied under oath repeatedly about his knowledge of gain-to-function work at the Wuhan lab. If called again, he would have to repeat or disavow the earlier testimony.

(((Aaron Walker))) (@AaronWorthing) ~ What gets missed is that to a large extent Democrats’ fear of Trump is projection. Democrats are afraid that Donald Trump will be as awful to them as they were to him.

We haven't paid much attention to Alexander Vindman's wife since she fled X for the safety of Leftist daycare Bluesky. Let's be real, the only reason anyone even knows who she is, is because her husband is a gossipy little whiner who destroyed his own career via an epic case of TDS.

Well, it seems Mrs. Vindman has a case of the sads today:

So, Rachel ... you wanted a pardon from Brandon because you know someone in your family is GUILTY of committing a crime, eh? 

Noam Blum (@neontaster) ~ Okay, I changed my mind. These pardons were worth it just so I could see Rachel Vindman throw a tantrum over not getting one.

Amy Curtis (@RantyAmyCurtis) ~ So Rachel Vindman just admitted her family committed a bunch of crimes in a public post on Bluesky. What a time to be alive.
