In Reply to: Seems to me presidential pardons are absolute. posted by BluBlood on October 13, 2026 at 22:17:41
will enable a lot of terrible people avoid federal prosecution. However, I think a lot of them could be prosecuted on a state level.
Even better, the Presidential Pardon would not enable them to escape prosecution from the International Criminal Court, or from foreign countries. Perhaps a new government in Venezuela would like to prosecute Trump (if he's still alive), or Pete Hegseth (if he's sober).
So many crimes, and so little time to prosecute...
