Steeling myself for this. She, nay, we, deserve justice here.

“Steeling myself for this. She, nay, we, deserve justice here.”


Don’t think that it’d be over if there’s a pardon.

First, she’d look guilty as Hell if she accepted it - whether it could otherwise be proven that she did something wrong or not. So her reputation would be shredded.

Second, since she could NEVER invoke the 5th Amendment (since she can’t be convicted based on the testimony), she could be compelled to testify about ALL of the sordid details. If she refuses to testify, then she can be jailed for contempt of court or Congress (as the case may be). Further, if she lies AT ALL, then she is guilty of perjury.

IMHO, the best possible thing for us is for her to be pardoned, and to then be called to testify. That is when it would really get interesting.
