If Reddington passed the bar he knows Trumps has no authority to pardon. It's just a cheap marketing campaign.

Too Dumb to Check: Clancy Defense Attorney Begs for Pardon From ... Trump?

Today's deep legal question: Does Kevin Reddington even know how the law works?

Because ... this ain't it, sporto.

Fresh off attempting to sic a mob onto a holdout juror last week, Reddington appeared on Good Morning America to discuss what comes next for his client, triple-murderer Lindsay Clancy. What Reddington hopes comes next will either be a plea deal for an insanity commitment or a pardon. He's clearly barking up the wrong tree here on the latter, and not just in the civics sense:

Reddington also said he hopes President Donald Trump would consider a pardon for his client.

"Mr. President, I would hope that you would consider this young lady and the person she is, what she's been through, and consider a pardon," Reddington said Tuesday in an interview on "Good Morning America."

Either Reddington is so blindingly dumb that he does not know Trump has no authority over this case or Reddington is continuing to "try" this case in the court of public opinion. I think the latter, but I think he's too dumb to realize that the "juty" in that "court" is less favorable to his client than was the jury in the mistrial.

Lindsay Clancy’s Ex-Husband Faces Heinous Threats After Campaign of Lies

Patrick Clancy came home from getting his wife food to find she had thrown herself out the window after strangling their three babies to death. His haunting 911 call, as he screamed out the name of his “buddy” and older son, Dawson, and realized his children were gone, should strike at the heart of every American. And yet, the misinformation campaign against him has been so heinous online that he is receiving death threats from people who side with his evil ex-wife.

“Over the past months, Patrick Clancy and his family have been subjected to a relentless, escalating, and destructive defamation campaign,” his lawyer Howard Cooper revealed when speaking with Boston 25 News. “This campaign of misinformation has been launched and promoted by minor celebrities, so-called influencers, and outright conspiracy theorists who appear intent on boosting their own social media profiles and potential profit by publishing what they know to be outright falsehoods that Patrick was somehow involved in the death of his young children and other vile claims.”

“This campaign, now fueled by insatiable media coverage, remains at a fever pitch and has resulted in real-life threats to his reputation, livelihood, and life,” Cooper said, referring to an increase in insanity after the mistrial. “Patrick has no choice but to address this situation – with the clear goal of stopping injurious behavior, creating accountability for lies that are self-serving to the perpetrators, and being able to return his attention to what matters: preserving the memory of Cora, Dawson and Callan Clancy and supporting other women facing perinatal mental health challenges,” he said. Cooper warned of legal consequences, and I hope there are some for those issuing death threats.

He wants Republicans to pretend that he is on the ballot? ...

The Dems put Trump on the ballot by just about every Dem candidate promising to impeach Trump. I changed my signature line yesterday to highlight the Dems main campaign promise.

This has got to be the stupidest response on that thread:

They are also claiming that the people who shot Trump and Kirk are/were MAGA.  They are so delusional (and such consummate liars) it's hard to believe that very many of them can actually differentiate between fantasy and reality.

Tyler Robinson apparently was right-wing.

Was.

It looks very much like someone may have radicalized him, such as his roommate. Of course, that roommate denies ever discussing politics with Robinson, but I believe that about as much as I believe claims that postal employees don't discuss politics.

The other thing I notice with leftists at protests is that they will often get right in people's faces, but stop just short of physical contact. They probably are either trying to goad people into fights so that the right looks bad, or they are trying to avoid an altercation they know they will lose.

This poster must have missed the Harvard/Harris poll of likely voters which showed Republicans not in the dumps.

Trump: The "dictator" who sometimes can't even get the cooperation of his own party and subordinates.

Amen
