This was cover for the pardon of his Chicago homeboy Marxist Murder Terrorist, Oscar Lopez Rivera. Bill Ayers and another dream from his father fulfilled.
Oh, I saw that too. Someone else that should be under the landfill with Manning.

I don't think it has been done yet.
According to this article on Fox News, it hasn't been done yet, and the Army is at least trying to ensure we don't pay for it.

I think until he's actually made the cut he shouldn't be referred to as a "she". It's insulting to the vast majority of Cis-women who don't get the support, protection, and encouragement the trans women do.

And as for where he belongs, I was thinking unmarked in a landfill is too specific and localized. The South Atlantic or the South Indian Ocean in the roaring forties would do nicely, I think.
The use of the word "but" usually indicates that everything preceding it in a sentence is a lie.
E.g.:
"I believe in Freedom of Speech, but". . .
"I support the Second Amendment, but". . .

I'll give him a "clap" if he made up the Trans thing in order to get away with it.

And now he wants to be in the Senate, as a Democrat.

Are there any rules about being a convicted felon and serving in the Senate? Commutation isn't a pardon.
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

Thats because Mass has some fucked up law regarding felonies.

Only if you're Republican.
