It's the blanket pardon that I detest. I think someone should challenge the constitutionality of blanket pardons that don't specify the crime that is being pardoned.

Since pardons are conjoined with reprieves and the sentence that is being reprieved must be specified, I say that so must the pardoned be specified, too.

This notion of Biden's that they are not guilty of anything but he's pardoning them anyway is an abuse of the power of the pardon.
