Chapter 1882 Chat (please give me a monthly ticket!!! Please subscribe!!! Please recommend!!)

Magneto left the prison after signing a series of documents. But this cannot be said externally. Externally, the New York Police Department announced that the prisoner had died. It's simple and clear. After all, when Marx was taken away, he was indeed unconscious and didn't know whether he was alive or dead. No one knew what his fate would be. For some unnecessary trouble, 'Marx' must be killed, otherwise it will be difficult to explain.

Explain his presidential pardon?

Please, Benjamin doesn't want to take the blame... Benjamin still needs to be re-elected as president for multiple terms, so he can't use the pardon at will. This thing is basically an emergency moment, so as to ensure that the president's prestige will not be affected. Only a president who has no hope of being re-elected would desperately issue a presidential decree when he is about to step down. Because the power does not expire and become invalid, generally speaking, when the term approaches, the president will become a lame duck president.

A lame duck president is a president who has lost the support of the House of Representatives. If even the Senate loses support, the president will become a "legless duck" and can only watch helplessly as his bills and policies are rejected. In this case, the president will face a bumpy reality: implementation cannot be achieved through proposals or policies, but there are some things that must be proposed or approved by the president. Therefore, a "lame duck government" naturally emerges: what the president and the government want to do will inevitably encounter obstacles in the two houses of parliament. When the two houses want to amend the law, formulate a bill or amend the draft, the president will try his best to Delay as much as possible and firmly refuse to approve.

This situation will be especially obvious after the president makes a big mistake and loses public support. Of course, there is also the fact that as the term of office approaches, there is no hope of re-election. This kind of president will be a lot less awe-inspiring for everyone. After all, you are going to get out soon. It is useless for us to coax you. Naturally, you don't need to pay much attention to him.

In this case, the power of the president will be infinitely reduced, but the Constitution also grants the president some powers that do not need to be passed by the House of Representatives and the Senate, such as pardons.

This is the president’s last resort insurance and benefit.

For example, during this period, the president had some dirty butts, his wife took bribes, his son-in-law committed corruption, his son committed crimes, etc. These messy things were not a big deal when the president was in office. After all, the government also wanted to save face, so everyone treated the messy things of people close to the president as invisible. (In fact, in the past, struggles in American politics were still based on unspoken rules. No one would go after the people close to the president to cause trouble. After all, it was taboo to do so. Until that man appeared, he broke too many unspoken rules, causing unspoken conflicts. The rules just didn't work for him, and then everyone started fighting without a bottom line. How could there be so many bad things in the previous president's family? It's not that they were all good people, but everyone tacitly understood that they would not bring it to the table. You know, In addition to affecting the government's credibility, does the exposure of this matter have any benefits to the ruling class?)

In short, in order to ensure that I will not be blamed after my term is completed.

The president will start issuing pardons to directly make himself clean. After all, the American judicial principle is that once the amnesty is issued, it means that their bad things are over, and the judicial department can no longer investigate and prosecute them for these bad things.

In addition, in order to accumulate political capital, sometimes the amnesty order is not only prepared for the president, but also for other people. For example, if someone is older or younger, someone has committed a crime, and the older person is very energetic, at this time, the older person can find the president. .

Who said, please do me a favor and help me fish out my little one, and I will be rewarded generously in the future!

In this way, the old man owes the outgoing president a favor. These favors will be of great benefit to the president's son, daughter and even his wife when they run for election in the future.

Otherwise, where do you think those political families came from, or why do you think a certain president’s wife received so much support and almost became the first female president. They are all exchanged. Do you really think they are relying on some so-called prestige?

Isn't the good old Carter's prestige high enough? But he still has no influence at all after leaving office. Prestige is both useful and useless in politics. (Carter is the most special president in the history of the United States. He is a good man. The president after Nixon has done many things that the people of the world are satisfied with but Americans are not satisfied with.)

In short, the pardon is the last benefit the president can get for himself before he leaves power.

But Benjamin doesn’t have to!

According to the current market situation, Benjamin still has a chance to be re-elected. First of all, the current position of president is definitely not a good position. The United States is in decline... This cannot be denied by the U.S. government without admitting it. After all, people are not fools and can see it with eyes.

Although the gentlemen above do not do much in human affairs, each one is smarter than the last. They know that the current state of the United States cannot withstand frequent changes in leadership, and that will do no good at all.

There are too many such examples all over the world. Basically, every country seeking death is manifested by watching the throne of the highest power begin to be replaced like a marquee. In this way, the state power cannot be implemented well. The government Policies will also become intermittent, and in worse cases, inconsistent and inconsistent, and politics is closely related to all aspects of the entire country.

Stability is the need of the people and also the needs of various industries.

Once the regime changes frequently, the most likely thing that will happen is that the country will do nothing but compete for power and gain, and no one will be satisfied.

So there is a tone in the upper echelons, that is, since Benjamin is doing a good job, don't change him easily, because the new one won't do better than Benjamin anyway.

Of course, everyone understands this truth... But the truth is the truth. If the world really talks about reason, then this world is definitely an ideal country. Many countries that have experienced frequent changes of government leaders, don't they know this truth?

Yes, such a simple truth, even the writers of Qidian know it, how could those government officials not know it?

But everyone wants to have a taste of it. After all, the highest power throne represents huge interests. Even if you die after having a taste of it, you can still get huge benefits. Anyway, the country is in such a mess, it's better to let me get some wool... Everyone's idea is so simple. Anyway, there is no ability to save the country, but there is the ability to make money under the guise of saving the country. Not only that, but also a lot!

As for what will happen to the country in the future... It's none of my business. Anyway, I will step down sooner or later. I must believe in the wisdom of later generations!

There are always a few sober people in the world, and mediocre people like this who only care about themselves are the majority... no, the vast majority, including you and me.

So you can't expect many sober people in the upper class of the United States. The real reason for everyone's tacit approval is that Benjamin's public support is too high, and his skills are also very good. He coordinates the power within the party very well. In addition, the other party can accept many of Benjamin's policies. Without a fundamental conflict of interests, Benjamin also has supporters in the other party. Not too many, but with such a group of people, it means that the president can get an absolute majority support from both the Senate and the House of Representatives, which is very cool.

So Benjamin can sit firmly in his position.

Therefore, he will not issue a pardon casually, maybe when he is about to leave office, he will do so. But now he is very cautious about the pardon. After all, this thing is very unfair... No matter how much meaning you give it, it highlights an unfairness. Simply put, it is a loss of character.

Benjamin will not do this... at least not easily.

So the pardon can be issued, publicity is unnecessary, and it must be done in secret.

Magneto is free... limited freedom, he needs to work for President Benjamin.

But in the end, he doesn't need to go to jail or go to the laboratory, so what is there to hesitate about?

Team X still has some time, and their main task this time is to rest. They have been working for a long time and they really need to rest. At the same time, Joe also needs to go back to Washington to report the results of this period of work and strive for more support.

It has to be said that Nick Fury is like some kind of dirty thing. Wherever this guy goes, he will infect.

During this period of time, the president cleaned up three secret bases and more than a dozen strongholds, and even dug out an intelligence network that is still in operation.

The problem lies in this intelligence network. Although they dug it out, it has not been completely destroyed. Where is its funding source, how to recruit personnel, how to conduct training, including the mode of operation, are all problems that must be solved.

This intelligence network has been operating!

What does this show? It shows that everything behind it is still there.

But this is not something that Joe can solve. It requires the cooperation of multiple departments. If he and the few guns under his command are really investigated, there is no need to do anything else. The key is that this also involves foreign forces.

According to Joe's experience, their source of funds is through the favorite bank of many film and television dramas-Swiss Bank.

In many film and television dramas, Swiss Bank is definitely the favorite of criminals, as if it is the safest to put money here.

In another world... not.

Here... relatively safe!

Swiss banks are famous for their strict bank confidentiality regulations. The rich may choose to keep their funds in Swiss banks to protect their financial privacy and personal information security. Swiss banks uphold the tradition of protecting customer privacy and strictly limit the disclosure of customer information to third parties, which provides a certain degree of security for some special groups. At the same time, their funds can be very safe. Swiss banks are considered to be a relatively stable and safe financial system. Switzerland's political stability, rule of law environment and economic strength make the rich believe that putting funds in Swiss banks can reduce risks and protect their wealth from political, economic or financial instability. At least there is no need to worry about the bankruptcy of the bank where you deposit money.

In another world, the memorial archway of this permanent neutral country has been thrown away long ago, and has been stepped on by people for thousands of times, and spat on countless times.

There is no way, in that world, the United States has not weakened, at least the weakening is not so obvious. So this neutral country can't bear it.

This world is different.

The United States has weakened.

The whole world has seen a competition for hegemony among multiple powers.

At this time, neutral countries... you'd better be neutral. Originally, you are a small country, so you can be placed wherever you are, and your priority is not high. If you don't come out to show your presence, everyone will pretend not to see you. Anyway, as long as someone reaches the top, such a small country will kneel down quickly. Everyone will not waste time dealing with it. On the contrary, they will show goodwill and comfort.

But you jump out to fight... You little Karami, you pretend to be transparent, and others really don't bother to pay attention to you, but if you fight, you will jump up and slap the face of the big country. Who can tolerate this?

Fortunately, the neutral country is very sensible.

Desperately support the memorial archway of the permanent neutral country.

Big brothers can't see me, can't see me!

So their banking law is still so unique and full of style.

This is still the safest bank in the world.

Of course...if you say it is absolutely safe, that does not exist. If the big brothers ask you to check something, you will not refuse, right?

Of course not, but I just ask you not to tell others that I told you.

Well, that's probably the situation.

Everyone respects neutrality on the surface, but in fact, this kind of neutral country is the softest, and it will be whatever shape the big brothers like.

On the surface, it is pure and innocent, but in fact, it plays more than anyone else in private.

But no matter whether it is pure and innocent or fickle, this part is not under the control of Old Joe, and others can't pay attention to him. So he must hand over this part of the work.

In this way, everyone can move freely in New York.

Marx naturally has to go to Pietro's house.

The father and his son had a pleasant afternoon, and then they went to pay their respects to Kai the next day.

Marx has been in society for so many years, and he knows too well the disadvantages of having no backstage.

When he was in the motorcycle gang, he still knew how to build good relationships with the bosses above. What's more, now he has run to the government department, where the bosses gather, and anyone can kill him.

It was no problem before. At most, he would get rid of the motorcycle gang and run away. He could live anywhere.

But now he has a son and a daughter, so it's not convenient.

So he must have a big brother to worship, if for no other reason, just to tell others that I have someone to protect me! Don't cheat me!

Yes, Marx pursues this, he doesn't ask for a big future... He is this age, and he could have considered buying a coffin for himself in the past. Now he has a son and a daughter, and he really doesn't want to toss around. He has also thought about the X team. He does what he should do. He doesn't touch what he shouldn't do at all, and what stands out is that he just lives a lazy life.

When the time comes, he will retire!

Anyway, it won't be a few years.

The retirement age in the United States has a certain degree of flexibility based on personal choice. The normal retirement age varies according to the date of birth and the revised Social Security Act, and is roughly between 66 and 67 years old. Specifically, the retirement age for people born in 1937 or earlier is 65, for those born between 1943 and 1954 it is 66, and for those born in 1960 and after it is 67. In addition, Americans can also choose to retire early, and can start receiving pensions as early as 62 years old, but the amount will be reduced by 25% to 35% accordingly. At the same time, there are proposals to postpone the statutory retirement age to 68 or 70 years old to meet the challenges of the pension system, but it has not yet been implemented.

After a few years, my daughter will be married and have children.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to take care of the children at that time! It can also make up for the regret that I have never grown up with my children, and taking care of my grandchildren is also a kind of re-experience.
