Rep. Andy Biggs agrees that POTUS is a soyboi, so all’s right with trump-world: soy products and fluoridated water supply, book burning, and a putsch. DoJ sure won’t pay attention to that pardon request now.

Rep. Andy Biggs' denial of a pardon request would be more believable – under oath

For example, if Biggs didn’t seek a pardon, did someone seek one for him? Either at his direction or not? Did he know if that happened and notify the White House that he wasn’t interested?

[...]

Biggs also said, “Like the many selective leaks from this illegally formed Committee, today’s video testimony from Ms. Hutchinson was deceptively edited to make it appear as if I personally asked her for a presidential pardon.”

There’s nothing illegal about the committee. But Hutchinson’s testimony does leave the impression that Biggs asked. And like I said, I don’t recall Hutchinson complaining about the editing.

Finally, Biggs said, “These hearings, without cross-examination or advance disclosure of evidence, have become a Soviet-style show trial; the truth is less important than the outcome. And the media is aiding and abetting the entire disgraceful affair.”

x Dude who incited a violent insurrection now tries to incite a mass shooting. Got it. https://t.co/kqtSYNAO8d — farticus maximus (@DarthZapata) July 3, 2022

x I refuse to testify before the Jan. 6 Committee.



Some say, “Ooooh, you must have something to hide or else you would testify.”



I say that type of thinking is not only naïve in this age of political warfare, but it is also dangerously un-American.https://t.co/SRvnmjEUFW — Rep Andy Biggs (@RepAndyBiggsAZ) June 9, 2022

(19 January 2021) Arizona Republican Congressmen Andy Biggs and Paul Gosar have asked President Donald Trump to preemptively pardon them for their roles in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, but the president has no plans to do so, CNN reported Tuesday.

Trump retains sweeping clemency and pardon powers until Joe Biden takes the oath of office at 10 a.m. Arizona time Wednesday, and CNN noted that the mercurial president could change his mind. However, facing an impeachment trial in the Senate and growing prospects that Republican senators — including longtime GOP leader Mitch McConnell — will vote to convict Trump for his role in encouraging the rioters, Trump has decided not to proactively pardon the congressmen. Per CNN:

Huddled for a lengthy meeting with his legal advisers, Trump was warned the pardons he once hoped to bestow upon his family and even himself would place him in a legally perilous position, convey the appearance of guilt and potentially make him more vulnerable to reprisals.

So, too, was Trump warned that pardons for Republican lawmakers who had sought them for their role in the Capitol insurrection would anger the very Senate Republicans who will determine his fate in an upcoming impeachment trial. …

Several Republican lawmakers who are alleged to have been involved in the rally that preceded the deadly riot on the U.S. Capitol have sought clemency from Trump before he leaves office, but after meeting with his legal advisers for several hours on Saturday, the President decided he would not grant them, according to two people familiar with his plans.

x Andy Biggs agrees with right-wing host: Biden uses 'soy products' to 'feminize' and weaken military https://t.co/JQEa3nOf3D — Raw Story (@RawStory) July 3, 2022

Conservative television host Anna Perez suggested to Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) that Democrats are using soy products to "feminize" and "weaken" the United States military. The congressman appeared to agree.

During a Saturday interview on Real America's Voice, Biggs argued that President Joe Biden's administration has "hatred to America, its people and its military."

"I want to follow up with that," Perez said. "It does seem like, even you look at some of the things that they're doing with the woke stuff. Of course, there's that. And also, the food. We know there's a lot of soy products and vegan food, which I'm sure they're pushing on them."

"I wonder if there's a feminization aspect of our military," she continued, "that they're trying to push so they are weaker."

x Questioning the accuracy of the 2020 presidential election is not un-American.



Many irregularities remain unresolved today.

Although Joseph Biggs and Andy Biggs share a common surname, they do not share the same family background.
