    Gratefully, he’s old and does have a life span.

    Graham suggests that Congress might have to amend the Constitution to place limits on the presidential pardon power.


    https://www.politico.com/news/2025/01/26/graham-pardon-jan6-trump-biden-00200629

    excerpt:

    A president’s pardon power originates in the Constitution itself ― “he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment” ― but Graham said Congress might look at putting limits on it if the power is abused.

    “I don’t like it on either side,” he said. “And I think the public doesn’t like it either. So if this continues, if this is the norm, there may be an effort to rein in the pardon power of the president as an institution.”

    Freed Capitol riot ringleaders regroup - and vow 'retribution'

    excerpt:

    "That should give you everything you need to know about my position," he said.

    Susan Collins, the moderate Republican senator from Maine, said: "I do not support the pardons if they were given to people who committed violent crimes."

    But others were in favour.

    "One-hundred percent I'm for them," said Senator Tommy Tuberville. "Pardon every one of them. They've been there long enough."

    Speaker Johnson vows to find out 'what really happened'.


    Proud Boys leader thanks Trump for January 6 pardon and vows revenge

    excerpt:

    The rewriting of January 6 – and attempts to seek revenge on the people involved in initially investigating and prosecuting it – will continue during Trump’s second term. The House speaker, Mike Johnson, announced on Wednesday that a new select subcommittee will be formed to investigate “all events leading up to and after January 6” in order to “uncover the full truth that is owed to the American people”.

    Proud Boys leader thanks Trump for January 6 pardon and vows revenge

    excerpt:

    "He gave interviews outside the DC jail, where he said he wanted prosecutors to be tried for their “crimes”. Rhodes was not pardoned – his sentence was commuted, and he was released early. He wants a full pardon.

    Rhodes suggested January 6 should be remembered in history as “patriots day”. He has not expressed regret for his role in the riots, saying his members were entrapped and their responses to police force were understandable. “We were there to protect Trump supporters from Antifa,” he said in a video after his release."

    The words of Rhodes should be directed at himself and others who rioted at the Capitol.

    Instead, he's referring to people in the justice system who prosecuted him successfully.

    excerpt:

    “The people who did this, they need to feel the heat, they need to be put behind bars, and they need to be prosecuted,” Tarrio said.

    Trump freezes funding under Inflation Reduction Act… | Canary Media

    excerpt:

    "The pause on disbursing funds appropriated through the Inflation Reduction Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is laid out in a section of a broader executive order on “Unleashing American Energy,” entitled “Terminating the Green New Deal.”

    Donald Trump has adopted the “Green New Deal” moniker for a slew of energy and climate policies he opposes, including the hundreds of billions of dollars in tax credits, grants, and incentives for clean energy, electric vehicles, and programs to reduce climate and environmental pollution."

    Trump freezes spending of Biden programs.


    Trump freezes IRA and infrastructure law funding

    excerpt:

    "Jan. 22: President Donald Trump suspended all Inflation Reduction Act funding disbursements in an executive order Monday, part of a sweeping set of directives to begin setting the new administration's energy agenda.

    The action, dubbed “Terminating the Green New Deal,” also pauses all funding disbursements for the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, commonly known as the bipartisan infrastructure law. The two laws were hallmarks of former President Joe Biden's domestic policy agenda, rolling out billions of dollars in federal funding for clean energy construction and manufacturing projects."

    Democrats slam Trump for not making good on promise to ‘immediately’ lower food prices

    excerpt:

    “Instead of working to lower their grocery bills however, you have used the first week of your administration on attempting to end birthright citizenship, pardoning individuals who attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, and renaming a mountain,” the letter said.

    Trump told NBC News’ Kristen Welker on “Meet the Press” last month that his Election Day victory came down to two subjects: immigration and the affordability of food.

    “I won on the border, and I won on groceries,” he said.

    But later in December, he conceded that lowering grocery bills would be “very hard.”

    “It’s hard to bring things down once they’re up,” he told Time magazine.
