Help me understand how a president can just seemingly have unlimited authority to pardon someone on his staff of just about anything even if there are charges of espionage and treason involved. Especially if THEY are involved themselves.

It just ain't right....

Then make him pardon her for offense “A” and hold off on offense “B” until February.
