President-elect Donald Trump hinted at mass pardons for defendants tied to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot — with his team vowing he would also overhaul the “Democrat-controlled” Department of Justice — a little more than an hour after President Biden pardoned his son Hunter Sunday night.
“Does the Pardon given by Joe to Hunter include the J-6 Hostages, who have now been imprisoned for years? Such an abuse and miscarriage of Justice!” Trump posted on Truth Social.
The 45th president, who won back the White House last month, floated pardons during his campaign for the more than 1,500 defendants either still facing trials, or those already convicted for breaching the Capitol as Congress was voting to certify Biden’s 2020 election win over Trump.

President-elect Donald Trump issued a stark warning Monday over the ongoing hostage crisis in Gaza, as regional tensions escalated with the first reported Hezbollah attack since implementation of a ceasefire along Israel's northern border.
In a message posted to his Truth Social platform, Trump demanded immediate release of all hostages held by Hamas, warning of unprecedented retaliation if the order goes unheeded by his inauguration date of January 20.
"Please let this TRUTH serve to represent that if the hostages are not released prior to January 20, 2025, the date that I proudly assume Office as President of the United States, there will be ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East," Trump said, adding that, "Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW!"
HAMAS's top leaders are almost all dead now.

254 hostages taken. It's been over a year and whatever has been visited upon the Palestinians has most certainly been inadvertently dished out on the hostages.
Hate to be grim ASF, but I believe the lot of them are deceased. For all we know, one of Israel's many airstrikes could have wiped them out and Hamas is lying about their existence to retain leverage.
When was the last "proof of life"?
Who tf knows. I'm just saying.

CAIRO, Dec 2 (Reuters) - Hamas said on Monday that 33 hostages in Gaza had been killed during the almost 14-month-old war between the Palestinian militant group and Israel in the enclave, without giving their nationalities.
Hamas added that other hostages had gone missing.
"With the continuation of your crazy war," it said in a statement addressed to Israel, "you could lose your hostages forever. Do what you have to do before it is too late."
Hamas shortly afterward published a video it said detailed when and how the hostages had been killed, blaming Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for their fate.

What would be easier? Plucking Israel out of being small, dead center in the region and surrounded by those that hate them, and moving them somewhere else?
-or-
Removing all the countries around them so they can just have the whole region?
You're right. Irregardless of anything, until these two groups are on different planets, this will go on ad nauseum.
Do beautiful, smiley females have what it takes to throw 82 year old men in prison, or sentence them to death for treason? I wish Bondi looked a little "meaner".

The only problem with that I see is their mind set and religion demands that they impose their belief system on the whole world-and dedicate their entire life to killing all humans that do not conform. After torturing them beyond belief, of course. Rape them-men and women alike-then burn them alive or publically behead them.
A world ruled by animalistic terrorists doesn't sound very appealing. If I was being held captive by Hamas I'd be praying for IDF to drop a bomb and that I'd be at groud zero.
Terrorists/Terrorism can take many forms which ends the same way: misery, violence and death.
Hell, the global monetary hegemony causes every bit of what you just mentioned.

I wouldn't consider the type of terror and torture radical Islamic groups live to inflict on 'infidels' in the same catagory as 'monetaary hegemony', but you do you.

The wheels of justice turn too slowly for that to ever happen; Joe doen't have that much time left and it does nothing to heal the nation.
The effort now needs to focus on taking the power away from all of the government agencies and set up enough oversight and transparency so it can't happen again.
The government has taken the power away from the people and it needs to be returned.

It's impossible to stop a current administration from painting the incoming President as a Russian SPY, or attempting to assassinate him. There are no "safeguards" that can prevent a few powerful bad apples from doing that kind of dirty work.
I'm a bigger believer in exposing those bad apples, and delivering punishments that will send a signal to future officials and leaders not to violate those laws.
It's WHAT WORKS in human nature. (Note how screwed up adults are who were given "time outs" instead of spankings?)

So you're going to split hairs. You do you as well.

Gosh, care; how many decades has this garbage been going on without anyone having the cajones to try to do anything about it except Trump? What do you think will happen when he's gone?
The GOP has no strrong leaders without Trump.
