Now Jill can change Joe's diaper in a slightly different setting. I'm sure she has visiting Angels on speed dial.

Ok, Trump being cheered at the Super Bowl was pretty cool, but I do kind of miss the F**k Joe Biden chants.

Trump just pardoned 1500 January 6 rioters. Well Joe, you opened the door.

And all you federal work from home employees? Better look for those suits and dresses again. Productivity is being restored from these workers who took advantage of COVID rules while the rest of the world went back to work.

Sorry, I'm watching Ohio St. beat the hell out of N.D.

I think the main no-no against Alexander or whatever his name is was that he leaked classified information to a whistle-blower. Is he guilty, who knows, but his family appears pretty butthurt over him not being gifted a get out of jail get-out-of-jail-free card. They must be thinking what the hell, all these other crooks got one.

Trump would have done this whether Biden had issued his pardons or not.

As far as remote workers being required to return to the office 5 days a week... this isn't about restoring productivity. He's counting on a number of employees seeking other jobs so that they can be replaced with loyalists whether they are productive or not.

Hybrid work opportunities tend to attract top talent and those are the people that will jump ship.

Many large employers now require at least some days in-office. Allowing people work from at least part of the week can increase productivity when people are expected to work from home on snow days or if they have a sick kid they have to stay home with.

There’s no data to back the productivity claim Soccer. It’s just another reason countries like China and Japan are beating us in business.

It’s growing a lazy, sloppily dressed generation. They get sick leave, FMLA and vacation days. If their kids get sick, use one of those days to stay home with them.

I truly believe in a fair days wage for a days labor. I would guess my former staff would say the standards were high, the work load was heavy but the pay was above average.

I doubt as well that Trump is looking for loyalists in the clerical pool.

The. Vacant office space in DC and surrounding areas due to to this nonsense has doubled and we are still paying to heat, cool and insure those buildings. I wonder how many janitors got laid off to save money. Why clean if no one is there?

It blows my mind that we sent kids back to school after COVID but workers get to stay home in their robes and fuzzy slippers.

God help us.

Spruce - the J6 pardons are probably the most agregious, as head of the party of "law and order" he's sending a signal that violence against law enforcement is acceptable.

To add insult to injury he calls these criminals "hostages". Thats a slap in the face to those truly being held hostage and their families.

For Pete's sake!

Soccer, take your "unfounded retribution" justification for Biden preemptively pardoning his family and LAWFARE cohorts and combine it with all of your "unfounded" accusations of Trump's character, tie them together and then ponder.

Now we are supposed to believe they care about law enforcement? Aren't they the party that supports defunding the police?

Looting, rioting and burning cities down is perfectly acceptable but now you want to talk "law and order"?

Pretty sure Dems have been sending the signal the violence against law enforcement is acceptable.

STANDING OVATION WHM

I won't say that I like pardoning those who broke into the capital and I sure don't condone Biden doing what he did before he changed his Depends and left office, however, as you said so correctly, the democrats shouldn't speak to the support of the law enforcement people who were hurt on Jan 6. They kept silent about the ones hurt and the departments burnt in the summer of Floyd.

Pretty sure you and Blu are, as expected, deflecti g from my point. I don't speak for all Dems,
But I can tell you law and order have always been and always will be a priority of mine, so save your rationalizations for someone else. Vance said those j6 criminals who used violence should absolutely not be pardoned. I wonder what VP Musk said. And these criminals are HOSTAGES. Justify that!

They seem to think we don't have a memory. I don't agree with what happened on Jan 6th either but I will never take a Dem telling me they believe in law an order. That is just a joke.

Biden opened the door wide open for pardons, I think it's hypocritical of them to be pointing fingers at Trump.

Trump was a least open and told everyone what to expect, unlike Biden who told everyone he wouldn't do it and then did it anyway. Who is the liar?

WHM - I don't care whether you take what I say seriously or not If you don't realize that not everything falls down party lines, then you are blind to facts and completely narrow minded. I think you were the person that said something to the effect... "they always say...but Trump..." that's exactly what you do.

Not all supporters of law enforcement are Republicans.

Yep and I learned the "but Biden" from the best.

I've never watched the View,but apparently you do. I was responding to a post made by Spruce. You seem awfully sensitive about any criticism of Trump, it's sad that anyone would be okay with Trump calling these criminals "hostages". Go with the crowd WHM, cosign for everything Trump says and does, you're not alone.

I'm not required to like everything Trump does, if you are already distressed about criticism of him, I suggest you better "get used to it".

Soccer, do you condone what Biden did yesterday? The timing and the people?

Do you admit that the whole Russia-Gate conspiracy thing was "Trumped" up and the Muller report totally started some of this attack on "political enemies"?

As I've stated before, the criminals who attacked the capital on Jan 6th should have been met with lethal force.

Soccer, would you say the same thing about the rioters who killed the police captain in St. Louis or who burned and looted buildings including police stations?

That may be the difference between me and "some", not "all" democrats. Assaults, arson, threats to property and life should be met with force .

I wouldn't watch those hateful windbags if it was the only thing to watch. I just read what the daily outrage is about. It's always good for a laugh.

The Dems have spent years criticizing everything Trump says and does and now it's not ok for me to defend him? It's like the little boy who cried wolf. Millions don't believe what the Dems are selling anymore.

I personally hope the Dems keep it up, if they are so focused on hatred for one man, they aren't spending time figuring out what went wrong. We shall see how many more years they can stay out of the White house.

I do agree with the use of lethal force if that's the best option to ending the situation. Split second decisions need to be made sometimes and if someone is breaking the law, lethal force against them is the risk they take.

That said, there are some "bad cops" for sure.. I'm thinking of the case of the woman in Illinois that was on body camera taking a pot of water off the stove and the cop shot and killed her as she was trying to set the pot on the floor.

The preemptive pardons for Fauci, the Jan 6 committee, those people Trump has specifically singled out as his enemies... yes I agree with what Biden did. As far as his family members which I don't think Trump is going after, I don't think that was a good idea. I wouldn't want Trump to do that for his family either.

The Russia gate thing, honestly, I can't give you an educated opinion on that as I never paid much attention to it or sought out what I would consider a non biased reporting on it.

When Democrats fake defend the Po Po you know they are in dire straits.

I wonder who most people in law enforcement supported Trump or Kamala. Some of these J6 people have have been in jail for months and months. To the few who may have assaulted a police officer, how long should they stay in jail??? I'm pretty sure many have already been jailed longer than most who did the same thing or much worse during the Summer of love.

Ok, Trump being cheered at the Super Bowl was pretty cool, but I do kind of miss the F**k Joe Biden chants.

No one said there aren’t a handful of bad cops among the tens of thousands out there. The Floyd case and the case you mention are examples of cops who should never have been hired.

You stopped a little short of answering my question. Yes or no, should the police defending the capital have used lethal force and should the rioters who burned, looted and murdered been fired on? Cops have seconds to make that decision. We’ve all now had years to decide.

There’s no wrong answer. I’m looking for your opinion. I would have given the order on both cases to fire at the attackers.

Yes they should have and I think they would have if they didn't feel like there would be repercussions given the lack of guidance they were given. There should have been better intelligence upfront,no coordination of efforts, Trump should not have encouraged them. This was a very unique situation.

If the basic question is should they have used lethal force, yes. One officer did and those in that area backed off.

Soccer.
I agree that a couple posters on here seen to believe they have a special gift that allows them to speak about what ALL DEMOCRATS believe or even think. I laugh every time I see one of them posting such nonsense.

I also believe in law and order. I do not care what political party you align with.

It is not ok to commit a crime or get revenge etc, because you believe that the other party did wrong.There is no justification for such actions.

Thanks for your truthful answer about the Jan 6 criminals Soccer.

How about the other half of the question. Should law enforcement have stopped the rioters in the summer of Floyd with lethal force? Oh, and those could be blamed on comments Pelosi, AOC and other "far left" wing members of the democrat party who said they understood the protests.

I say yes.
