This would be a novel use of presidential pardon power but given the threats from the incoming Trump administration, it is understandable.
When are shore towns going to accept that rising sea levels are making permanent changes to beaches? Instead of spending millions to replenish sand, they should be preparing for the day when there isn’t any. That will come sooner than later. This is a case in which listening to the public is wrong. Nature will have its way and changes man has made to the climate are the root cause of eroding beaches.
He never should have had it in the first place. It was an obscene compensation package.
He pardoned his son before the Republicans could make headlines out of his son’s past. Still it is hypocritical and going back on his word. What does Biden care? He lost the presidency and is on his way out. He also lost the Senate and the House. His political influence has been destroyed. It’s the last act of a once powerful man.
One positive from an ugly election was the dire warning that Americans must fix their democracy. For that, we should be thankful. For too long the country has run on autopilot with fixed assumptions of equity, rights and liberty. Now they are under real threats and action is imperative.

If that yields a positive outcome, this dark Thanksgiving will be one to remember.
Will Walmart’s pullback from DEI initiatives hurt its bottom line? Time will tell but the company seems confident that it won’t. From a PR perspective, it’s a mistake.
What a good idea to make enemies out of our two closest neighboring countries? Who needs Canada and Mexico anyway? Especially since they are the source of so many of our manufactured goods. Is this stupid or what?
In a diverse society with a multiplicity of beliefs and religious and non-religious systems, does this make sense? Texas is an outlier.
A loyalist but this time with legal experience. Perhaps that sends a better message to Congress and voters.
If only the public sector had control over falsehoods as science appears to have.
