[@douglasbroccone3144]

Yeah, he investigated himself and is very pleased that he found himself cleared of all charges.

[@christopherpierce3835]

The way things are going in the United States we don’t have to worry about Joe Biden anymore. The war that will kick off before the November 2024 polls even open. Make no mistake. Donald Trump is preparing for war. he’s preparing for an outcome where he is removed from eligibility to run for president. Once he gives the order, there will be zero government employees who survive what comes next. it’s not like we haven’t been taking your names and addresses and photos since Biden has taken office. There is a person on the government’s payroll that we don’t know their names, addresses, the vehicle they drive with license plate number. And all of their immediate family members and their names and addresses. Stop playing a game that you have zero chance of winning let alone surviving. Or keep going, and they will see the hole for the masses from space. No one will get a proper burial. In these ways of space have no one to blame but themselves.

Let’s settle this thing once and for all… Let’s subject both Biden and Trump to identical memory tests, e.g. general questions about American government and history, and see who comes out ahead, and who (if any) declines to play… I predict that Trump would refuse to take the test, but if he does take it, that he would lose by a landslide!

[@turtledove41]

Biden: How dare this special counsel report relevant information about my lack of cognitive function, *proceeds to ramble on about some rosary he wears for some reason*

[@ItTrolls4Thee.]

He got off scot-free. Two-tier justice system confirmed.

[@MSgt_0699]

And so did Pence. Know why? Because these people finding Classified documents later is routine. What is not routine is Trump's maliciousness. It's not a two tier justice system. You just can't cope with what you blindly supported and now desperately look for ways to exonerate yourself of being a traitor too.

[@exxusdrugstore300]

Because he cooperated. It gets you a long way in the legal system.

[@aidenmartin6674]

Biden cooperated. He wasn’t charged Pence cooperated. He wasn’t charged Trump lied, hid the documents and refused to give them back. He was charged for refusing to cooperate
