I don't think any of the J6 protesters had been convicted of a crime two weeks later, so I would not think pardons are applicable. That is, unless one subscribes to the theory that the power granted to the President is actually the power to grant blanket immunity. Seems like a dangerous theory.
As far as Julian Assange, he's been dead or in a deep, dark hole since October 2016. Spend political capital and stir up a shitstorm over a dead guy? Doesn't seem like a productive use of resources to me.
On what basis would I make such a claim? That it's happened before? Do you suggest operating on the principle that everything that's happened before is permissible?
I reject that type of thinking lunacy, retardation, or both.It's also to be condemned as enabling many of the ills of this world. But you go ahead with displaying it, if it's all you can manage.

So you're criticizing Trump for failing to exceed the Constitution enough for your liking? Seems to be a bold position, but okay.
