Obamas Parting Pardons
6/26/16 | Good Tomato

Posted on 06/26/2016 1:48:51 PM PDT by goodtomato

I just recently read that a President who is under Articles of Impeachment, may not issue any Pardons.

We now know that Obamas immigration policy was illegal. Why not file for Impeachment and let the clock run out? I think Hillary would have a "huge" problem with this action!

Republicans have rubber stamped everything President Barry has wanted since day #1.

Good luck with that.

Sure no problem. Just get Ryan and McConnell on board for impeachment and conviction. That’s gonna happen.

“I think Hillary would have a “huge” problem with this action!”

I think that a pardon can only be against a court finding. If Hillary doesn’t get indicted and tried there will be no court finding of guilt and thus no possibility of a pardon. If Obama did try to pardon her, what would he issue it for? The treasonous exposure of state secrets? Using her office for personal gain via the Clinton Foundation? Pay for play schemes? The pardon itself would read like an indictment.

Having said that, we can only hope that she loses and the next president goes after her. Of course, it will probably backfire as it always has. The media is what makes the Clintons invulnerable.

Nope....Nixon was pardoned before there was any legal action at all.

I was under the impression that when President Ford pardoned President Nixon, no charges had been filed?

A person can be pardoned by the President for all crimes, past, present and future.

Let’s see. Osama Bin Lauden. Omar Mateen. Mohammed Atta. Major Hassan. Have I left anyone out? Some of these are retroactive due to assassination by cops and airplanes I realize.

True. But the (alleged) crimes were all in the past.

Exactly. I don’t believe the GOPe is paid off as much as they are blackmailed.

That means that the complicit media AND the traitors within our government need to ALL receive the Nikolai & Elena Ceausescu 'retirement package'.

Because that world-famous DC “lockbox” only contains the collective gonads of Congress, no Social Security funds.
