DOJ investigating possible money for pardon?

Recommended Posts

Interesting timing with Barr finally saying there is no election fraud today. Even he is trying to get some distance from Trump.

Lots of corruption talk coming in the next couple of months.

Maybe the only way for a person to get some of the stench off oneself still standing in Orange Julius’s Administration these days is to get oneself fired. A cynical play at distancing oneself from the Grand Turd, but Barr probably isn’t that stupid (we just think he is - you know, by some of his questionable, sycophantic actions)...

He fired Krebs for saying about the same thing. Barr will keep digging for him though and create doubt about the Russia investigation. He is a Trumper for life.

Possible.  As Dana Carvey used to say on SNL, “well, isn’t that special...”.

I can't wrap my brain around the concept of a preemptive pardon which it seems like is inevitable for a number of loyalists. How is that possible and legal?

Although it's hard to believe we have alternative facts, mobile morgues and the ghost of Hugo Chaves interfering in our elections in this administration as well.

Ford's pardon of Nixon was pre-emptive.  Nixon had not yet been impeached when he resigned, and Ford pardoned him before he had been charged.

In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Didn't the Nixon resignation & leaving office make the impeachment to remove a moot point ?

Yes, impeachment is a political remedy. Nixon’s resignation didn’t resolve the criminal issues.

We’re all sitting in the dugout. Thinking we should pitch. How you gonna throw a shutout when all you do is bitch.

It did, but he still could have been criminally charged.  Ford's pardon stopped that.
