I don't know if Carter's pardon of Vietnam War draft dodgers was blanket or named individuals. I can't imagine the Pardon Review Board compiled a complete list of names, but maybe they did.

For that argument, you can still say that the draft dodgers were US citizens. Wouldn't that open the can of worms that a US President can pardon someone anywhere in the world who isn't a US citizen?
It's bullshit, but makes for an interesting debate.

January 6th, 2025, the day the Kackle has to face her final humiliation by certifying the man she called "fascist" as the 47th President of The United States. How sweet it is.

Yes... How sweet it is.
The timing of certification is defined by a federal law originally passed in 1887 and updated as recently as 2022. And they’ve moved it before. In 2013, Congress shifted certification to January 4th since the 6th fell on a Sunday.
I think they wait waaayyyy too long with this inter-regnum period. They could certify within two weeks and have the inauguration in early December. Especially with this Biden regime wreaking havoc during this time.

Any coincidence President Potato Head will not be in DC today?
He could have been present and delayed the NOLA trip to tomorrow...

The January 6 “Insurrection” that Wasn‘t January 6
Typically, coup attempts do not wrap up in time for dinner.
But over the next few days, with the anniversary of the 2021 January 6 Capitol riot having become a progressive political holiday worthy of obsessive memorialization, the nation will be deluged with tales of attempted government overthrow, Trumpian lunacy, and the FBI desperately trying to explain why it has yet to catch a person who—on video—placed two pipe bombs in DC that day but has somehow gloriously managed to track down and prosecute 1,000 trespassers.

That was thoroughly enjoyable. I look forward to inauguration day! Another side benefit, Kamala also gets to be there to watch him sworn in.
