As a final parting gift to the American people on his last day in office, earlier today President Obama commuted the sentences of another 330 federal prisoners, shattering his previous single-day record and bringing his total to 1,715, more than the previous 13 presidents combined. In addition, the President has pardoned 212 federal prisoners bringing his total acts of clemency to 1,927.

Of course, just as with previous announcements the President quickly took to twitter to celebrate the "accomplishment."

This seems to me, to be an abuse of power. I'm willing to bet most of these criminals will be back in jail sooner or later.

I can hardly wait for Trump to kick out 2 million criminals. I will feel a lot safer then.

You will be waiting forever. Welcome to Trumpland

Why?

Ironman says

* A double counting of state savings from a program that coordinates health, behavioral and long-term care services with local government. That error understated expenses by $913 million.

* A forgotten state government cost from two counties — San Mateo and Orange — enrolling in the coordinated program, which meant missed expenses of $573 million.

It's all bullshit. Fucking gimmicks.
How come all the errors always end up making the deficit worse? How come there are no errors that are positive and make the deficit better?

smart people do everything better

Currently, owners of the lands, which have been in their families for generations, have the rights to travel across Zuckerberg's property to get to their own lands... Many of the defendants in the suits by the social media mogul are living, but some are dead.

If dead people don't have a right to walk across a CEO's property, then freedom has no meaning.

APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says

The defendants had 20 days to respond to the suits, or they forfeited their rights...

How are dead people supposed to respond within 20 days?!? Do you have any idea the time and effort required to make dead people respond to anything? I predict some very angry zombies when they find out about all this.

Well....Brown never said he was perfect......he is an expert at building bullet trains and licensing illegal aliens......but math....not so much.....good 2 + 2 term pick Democrats.... matched only by Obozo.....your party is over

How come he just doesn't plink them when they wander by and throw the bodies into Pele's hungry lava mouth?

It's so reassuring that California isn't able to keep it's accounting to the nearest couple of billion or so. Doesn't that rank as banana republic or something?

Fucking Jerry Brown he cannot die soon enough to suit me.

Jerry Brown is the best Governor California has had since...last time Jerry Brown was governor in 1975-1983. He certainly is enormously much better than Ronald Reagan and Arnold Schwarzenegger were. Brown is also fiscally cautious, the math error non-withstanding. Only the most rabid right-winger would think that Reagan or Schwarzenegger would be able to find a budget error if one was made. Also, Jerry Brown has been better at balancing the budget than any of those Republican clowns.

California is lucky to have Jerry Brown in office.

Not sure what idiots disliked this posting.

Just going by actions in Los Angeles where for whatever reason the Mayor Eric Garcetti and the LAPD see fit to allow protestors to commit violent acts and what amounts to violent acts(such as shutting down freeways), it would appear that the citizenry must step in to restore order.

Trump bashers have 70 minutes to stop him from becoming President. How's the plan going?

Obligatory:

Only for welfare recipients.

...then when they came for the Protestors everyone applauded.

If you don't like Obama and Clinton sending these half-wits to represent the US in wars abroad, then maybe you should step up and advocate a draft, so that we can reduce size of enlisted military and increase the calibre of the soldier fighting abroad.

In the next 4 years Dems/Progressives/Independents will build a WALL of Financial devastation for Republicans.
BOYCOTT ALL Republicans!

Be careful what you wish for: once Jerry is out it's Gayin Newsom's turn. We're fucking doomed.

It is NOT possible to do worse than Brown. Plus at some point the denizens are going to say stop this shit.

I see two Unnamed patnet posters are ok with violent protests financed by foreign individuals. Good to know. Don't cry next time some rightys take to the same with rifles and shotguns. These things tend to go both ways.

Cheer up Hey You. 4 years from now, you will be voting for Trump.

I'll never get a chance to suck trump's dick,
too many Republicans in line for me
to serve him in only 4 years.

Bikers For Trump

Hitler had brown shirts. Trump has Hell's Angels.
Maybe they'll rough up a few Trump opponents while they're there.

LET THE IMPALEMENTS BEGIN!

Those who blow the Sacred Orange Gonads will get to wear orange ribbons and can never wash their faces again.

They will be designated Trumpligula Oracular Order of the Fellatio, and can charge admission for face sniffing.

Special Snowflakes will bring blood to Republicans by
BOYCOTTING ALL Republican wallets.

Is that rain, or did I just get too close to a weeping Snowflake?

Never send a lawyer to do a sniper's job.

Ah yes, the special snowflakes (SSF) seem to have too much free time on their hands. Where do they get the money to do things like this? Do the parents not realize how damaging this is to the character of the SSF's? They could grow up to be Realtor's or other such perverts.

SNOWFLAKE PROTEST, WET 'N LIVE! TEARDROP MUD WRESTLING TO FOLLOW!

There are "professional" black clad anarchists who frequently disrupt demonstrations in the Seattle area and resort to vandalism, i.e., breaking windows and disfiguring storefronts, starting trash can fires, etc.

This sounds like them: "As reproted earlier, violence erupted in some streets of Washington, D.C as members of a group dressed head to toe in black smashed the windows of cars and store windows shortly before President Donald Trump took the oath of office." http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-20/protesters-block-traffic-outside-trump-tower-manhattan

They tend to muddle the message of, and and cast doubt on, the integrity of all of the protestors, who typically disavow these kooks, and try to police their own flock. So who hires these bozos?

These sentimental attachments to primitive cultures of snorting aborigines are so tiresome.

How come they just don't give ZuckFuck some custom nerd camo and a custom nerd blunderbuss so he can stalk in the foliage, giggling and shrieking as he blows away the native Hawaiians?
