    […] The history of the 2021 Capitol riot, which for a time saw Trump politically isolated after he left office, has been rewritten: the
    president pardoned more than 1,500 of his supporters who were charged
    over the violence that day, one of his boldest moves this week. […]

    "Biden said his pardon of family was meant to shield them from Trump.
    That’s not the full story. "

    Admire you know about "doubts" from mainstream media.
    It is so hard to find anything more to admire in "the pardon frenzy".

    IMHO "Big political amnesty in USA" may be handy to remember in PRC
    for comparative defense.

    Don't think so, for multiple reasons:
    1. Don't think any adult to point to kid's wrong doing as the basis his
    or her own wrong doing.

    Don't think so. For many reasons.

    1. Would an adult point to a kid's wrong doing and claim the right to
    commit the same wrong doing?

    The PRC doesn't need to depend on facts to defend what it does.
