[@psyclist2663]

This abuse of power should be stopped!

[@barryobumfag]

In particular, four categories of pardons violate core constitutional provisions and principles and constitute abuses of power: 1. Presidential pardons cannot place the president above the law Two kinds of pardons would function to place a president above the law: a self-pardon and a self-protective pardon (that is, a pardon that has the intent and effect of impeding an investigation into a president or his interests and that would thus amount to a self-pardon). Broadly, these pardons would violate the president’s duty to faithfully execute the law as prescribed by the Constitution’s Take Care Clause and Oath Clause-both of which bind the president to exercise his powers in a way that serve the public’s interest, not for “self-dealing, self-protection, or other bad faith, personal reasons.” Such pardons would also run afoul of the power’s purpose as articulated by federal courts to further “the public welfare.” Former Supreme Court Chief Justice and President Howard Taft reflected that “[t]he only rule he [a president] can follow is that he shall not exercise it against the public interest.”As one federal court has held: “The President, who exercises that power as the elected representative of all the People, must always exercise it in the public interest.” The pardon power is not unlimited. It cannot be used to place the president above the law; to subvert other parts of the Constitution, including constitutional rights; to violate criminal law with impunity; or to license future lawbreaking on the president’s behalf. Like any executive power, it is constrained by the rest of the Constitution, including the duties imposed upon the president to act in the public interest.

Why does no one asked the question how can he pardon Hunter for something he hasn’t even done. When you read the pardon, he’s giving him amnesty. Wasn’t that the deal that fell apart in Delaware to begin with. The only two crimes he was convicted of was taxes, and the gun, those he can be part in for. If he hasn’t been convicted of anything else starting from back in 2014 how can they be pardoned?
