Lie on a gun application and never use the gun in a crime? You won't be prosecuted. Don't file your taxes and later pay them in full as well as the fines, you won't be charged.
And I still never thought Merritt Garland targeted anybody as you implied.
Good for President Biden. He should also issue a blanket pardon for every single person on Trump's revenge hit list like Jack Smith and his team, Mueller and his team, etc.
Who says it's not two-tiered? Trump should have been criminally, not civilly, charged for the Trump University fraud. And of course, his $25K contribution to AG candidate Pam Bondi, who declined to prosecute as Florida AG had nothing to do with it. He also should have been criminally, not just civilly charged for misusing charitable donations to the Trump Foundation. Rich, powerful people have always had advantages.
Of course it isn't fair. Trump pardoned Kushner's father, Steve Bannon, Lil Wayne, Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, George Papadopoulos, Rod Blagojevich, Kodak Black, Joe Arpaio, etc. You can find the full list here: https://www.newsweek.com/list-who-donald-trump-has-pardoned-1993998
Trump never claimed for years that he would not pardon anyone. Much less any specific person. Biden did. We all knew it was a lie. He should have pardoned him from the start why waste our time and tax money....
Just as I wasn't surprised when then-President Trump pardoned his son-in-law's father, as was already mentioned.
Not overly impressed but impressed with Hunter's words after his pardon. And I'm not well-versed on all the details on all the presidential pardons in history.
I wonder if pardons within families would be tempting if we ourselves were president.
