I could not give less of a fuck about that award or who does or doesn’t deserve it, but that’s some pretty damn funny trolling on the Biden administration’s part.

Better than what he was doing with the pardons anyway.

      Yeah, Clinton and Soros are the obvious trolls, but it goes deeper. He also awarded posthumous medals to Robert F. Kennedy (father of you-know-who) and George Romney (father of that other guy). Kind of a subtle reminder to those two that they didn’t get their political influence o their own merits.

      Heck, even Bill Nye (the Science Guy) is getting one. Another’s the reminder that we can’t just ignore Science when it is inconvenient.

      But still, nothing can top when Trump gave the medal to Rush Limbaugh a few years ago. That is when the award jumped the shark. It’s rather meaningless after that.

      Giving the highest civilian award to Clinton and Soros? Republicans are going to go nuts.

        Did you see which Democrats Biden gave it to the previous year?

        Don’t think anyone is going nuts over a medal that became a joke long time ago.

          You do know these are the people who went apeshit when Obama wore a tan suit and said he like dijon mustard, right?

            So what you’re saying is, those people all go apeshit no matter what? Or am I missing your point?

              They go apeshit more if you troll them. And it’s funnier.

      If you stay out of the conservative echo chamber, you might not be aware that Hillary Clinton and George Soros are cartoonishly evil wizards who simultaneously control everything and are violently inept. Imagine Rita Skeeter and Vigo the Carpathian getting awards, and that’s sort of what this looks like to MAGA-addled brains.
