In 1928, when prohibition was a big issue, Americans were divided into "wets" (pro-alcohol) and "drys" (anti-alcohol). Al Smith ran for President as a "wet" which led to what is probably the most unfortunate political slogan in American history:

The DOJ basically tried to give Hunter a pardon so the President wouldn't have to. That is corrupt. Did the President ask for it? Was it Garland's idea? SOMEBODY powerful decided that Hunter shouldn't have to face the consequences of his actions, and we need to know who it was.

Senators should keep their mouths shut regarding impeachment. It’s not their business; it’s solely the House’s business. Then, their political posturing becomes a problem later bc an impeachment trial requires Senators to take an oath to do impartial justice.
