āPresident Biden must use the power of the pen to protect those seeking sanctuary from the coming deportation machine that will crush the human rights of our immigrant neighbors,ā said one Amnesty leader.
Why not just really say fuck and pardon anyone for any crimes committed in the act of crossing a border?
Like, even if Bidens only course of actions is pardons (itās not, the article gets into options) why isnāt he pardoning more people?

The Democrats do have to think about the 2026 election. Even a lame duck has limits.
This comes down to his character. He just isnāt a good dude. People would respect him more if he went down swinging on his way out.
