POLITICO broke an interesting story this evening: “Biden White House Is Discussing Preemptive Pardons for Those in Trump’s Crosshairs.”
“Biden’s aides are deeply concerned about a range of current and former officials who could find themselves facing inquiries and even indictments, a sense of alarm which has only accelerated since Trump last weekend announced the appointment of Kash Patel to lead the FBI,” wrote POLITCO.
Four names were explicitly mentioned as deserving of preemptive pardons: Sen.-elect Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), Dr. Anthony Facui, and ex-Rep. Liz Cheney (formerly a Republican, formerly of Wyoming). More

They must be on the Epstein or Diddy lists.
Now that’s a Venn Diagram I’d like to see. – Dr. Tar
They need pardons because they know where the skeletons are buried.
No one fears theft more than a thief.
They need pardons because they are the reason there ARE skeletons.
Their pardon does not excuse them from me.
Since Trump is Hitler, he can just override the pardons.
Good freakin grief! Can Joe Pardon himself? Because those are very good grounds for Treason!
you can whine and cry all you want for a pardon for the things you have done then and now in this life,but there will be no pardon or forgiveness unless you confess,repent and beg mercy now before you stand before the true judge of all. But I fear most will not because they either do not believe or they think they have done nothing wrong. Judgement may not come now in this day or life, but know, it will come and then it will to late…..
How can you preemptively pardon someone? They haven’t even been charged with a crime. Yet. Nothing suspicious going on here. (Eye roll)
Preemptive pardon, that’s like admitting they are criminals and deserve punishment.
If you did nothing wrong, what are you worried about?
If it weren’t for projection, progs would have no self-awareness at all.™

PJMedia…..c’mon man…..
“…Four names were explicitly mentioned….”
then you list three (3) names…..
Proofreading…..c’mon man.
They’re afraid he’ll do to them what they’ve been doing to him for 9 years. Lawfare for me but not for thee.
I hope Biden pardens them by the busload. Just discussion alone proves the system is broken.
It’s what happens when you order a pwesident through the mail.
Maybe a pardon means they can’t be convicted and sent to prison, but does that mean they can’t be investigated and have the evidence laid out for all to see?
If they receive “pre-emptive pardons” can’t they still be tried in a court?
They may not be ultimately convicted, but at least the truth will be exposed. Maybe someone else will be exposed who participated in the crime?
Doesn’t the US citizenry deserve the truth?
you cannot pardon people without a crime and conviction.
Even SRN news, which is not a lefty organization, told the story like this: “The preemptive pardons are being considered because there is a fear that Trump is “going to go after people who criticized him.”
That has nothing to do with it. He’s going after people who committed crimes!
Just the idea of a “preemptive pardon” is a blatant admittance of guilt of some crime. So – these people knowingly committed crimes and now want to be absolved of crimes even though they haven’t been charged. This would appear to be a legal impossibility. A lawsuit should be brought on behalf of the American people to test even the concept of such nonsense. Corruption and criminal activity is so rampant among Democrats (and some Republicans) Biden would have to “preemptively pardon” 90% of DC. This is going to be an interesting clusterfuck to behold.
A Presidential pardon will protect against Federal criminal prosecution, but not state or Foreign prosecution. Where crimes are International let Foreign Prosecutors know they will be extradited. State Courts can destroy both the reputation and wealth of these crimals
There should never be a “preemptive pardon” allowed as part of the legal system in a Constitutional Republic. The Democrats somehow find a way to circumvent the legal safeguards intentionally created to limit government power, control and corruption.
is a “preemptive pardon” mentioned in the US Constitution?? or is it just “pardon”??? Lets not let them start changing the wording.
They need pardons only when they pass gass.
Hey, why not grant a preemptive pardon to ALL democrats? The voter roles would increase exponentially.
