Of course he can! This is Biraq’s fundamentally transformed America, where the rule of law is for the commoners.
Been saying this from day one, win or lose Hillary will get a Presidential Pardon from Obama... Just another example of corruption that rules the political class.
Clinton is still the favorite to win in November, but the mounting scandals will follow her to the White House
The pardon will not be for future wrongs. It will be for all her past wrongs. No indictment is needed - see Gerald Ford’s pardon of Richard Nixon.
Nixon was never indicted, but Ford pardoned him.
Apparently Clinton did, and nobody questioned it.
The privilege of Presidential pardon needs to be drastically limited. Certainly need to exclude anyone with “connections” to the president such as family, donors and their families, the president's employees or former employees or political allies. Given Obama’s willingness to pardon thousands of violent criminals, maybe the pardon should be limited to persons whose guilt is in doubt or whose punishment seems in retrospect to have been severe. Possibly the pardon should be subjected to a 2/3 senate approval. All require a Constitutional amendment.
No need to. If, God forbid, Clinton is elected then Congress can vote to impeach her to their heart's content. She will never be convicted in the Senate.
Maybe he should pardon her before the election so that she’ll be eligible.
He can’t pardon her for violations of state criminal laws.
Didn’t Ford do that for Nixon?
if she is pardoned she cant take the 5th and can testify against obama..
She’s the favorite? I expect better from Breitbart.
Consider the possibility that our former first couple could end up having to flee into exile should their plans not work out! Truly the sign of a banana republic.
A pardon applies only to crimes committed before a certain specific date.
Ford’s pardon of Nixon rested heavily on the 1915 case, Burdick v. United States. It established that accepting a presidential pardon is an admission of guilt, so indictment and conviction are not necessary.
No, the crook has so be indicted to be pardoned. So maybe that was the reason the GOP hasn’t done anything but expose the crime. Comey said the voters will decide Hillary’s guilt or innocence on election day. However, that only works if there is no vote fraud, quite an assumption when the Clintons are involved.
hitlary does not need protection from the DOJ, she is completely safe. obongo does not need to pardon her, they have no intentions of risking a democrat loss though an honest election.
Can I believe my ears or not?? Sis I just hear on FOX that Obama gave Iran 3.3 trillion dollars in an arrangement to free hostages?????
A president can pardon for any federal crimes already committed, even though charges have not been brought. He cannot pardon for state crimes.
If Trump wins I look for Hillary to be pardoned before Obama leaves office. Also, I think a bunch of IRS personnel could be pardoned due to illegally targeting conservative groups.
