Tom, I agree with your take on this. I think the pardon was a mistake. That said, I believe that Trump will pardon the Jan 6 guys during the first week. As a veteran and an engaged political citizen, that will kill me. Forgive the hyperbole. I believe beyond any doubt that the actions of those individuals was treason pure and simple. I’m willing to give a wide berth to Biden on this. Best regards, Joanne Cirillo (from the ancient days at Abbott Northwestern)
Yes, Trump will do what he promised regardless of Biden’s pardon or any other factor. But challenging Trump requires a high road. As a father, I understand President Biden’s decision. As an American, his decision is regrettable. And, absolutely, I remember the great ANW people. Not only a very talented team, but a terrific group of people.

Sharing this with my venerable Washburn HS "panel" (golf cult) for our first Thursday often tortured political zoom call.
