Harvard Law professor: ‘Donald Trump’s pardons must not obstruct justice’

Laurence Tribe, the foremost authority on Constitutional law, makes the case, that if the Biden administration does not pursue Trump and his associates activities, along with family members for crimes they most surely committed right in front of us, it opens the door for future lawless presidents, their family members, and associates, to participate in multiple criminal activities, sitting right in the oval office, with no consequences. This will definitely have to be the number one priority for the next administration to pursue, and if not, we will most assuredly be viewing this Constitutional Republic in the rear view mirror from now on.

What crimes idiot?

You are simply advocating Day.abusing the governments power again to harass political enemies including railroading Trumps people on trumped on charges. It's immoral and destructive.

No matter the preponderance of evidence, no matter how blatantly crimes were committed, the default position of Trump and his sycophantic followers will be to deny, point to others, claim fraud and fake news.

Just don't wait for history to break the hex Trump holds over himself and his supporters. Let justice rule today.

What crimes?

Be specific. Cite the action, and the statute the action violated.

I predict more dumbass Dimwinger talking point bullshit.

Yes, let's ignore the Biden Crime Family putting our national security at risk by literally selling out our country to China and waste resources on more Democrat chicanery.

If you could only prove that. But you can't. Therefore, you are nothing but a liar. Which we already knew too.

There is no other explanation to Hunter Biden's multi-million dollar 'contracts' with China, Ukraine, Omar and other foreign entities. That is how Pay For Play works, you have a powerful political figure who never directly accepts money but gets it laundered through a family member or trusted associate. Time to wake up, your country is being taken from you.

The pardons are a matter of record and not subject to second guessing. Whether I or you like it or not. Other than who he pardons, as long as not selling pardons (I'm a Tennessean, we been there done that), his other decisions, actions and transgressions must be looked and and held to account. He should be punished for his crimes as anyone else. He is owed no special consideration after he leaves office.

He is selling pardons. And some of these pardons may get thrown out, or turn out to be meaningless, through sheer incompetence of Trump lawyers.

Possible, but not likely and hard to prove. When it happened in TN, we had the goods and so solid, there was no denying, though he was only tried and convicted on mail fraud and selling liqueur licenses. Have not seen or read evidence of it. Don't like the SOB, but need to see more to believe it needs to be added to his list of prosecutable offenses.

Well I think Clinton and Barry sold a few then. A POTUS can pardon anyone he wants. To bad you aren't smart enough to know that. Oh well.

No, they cannot. Too bad you’re not smart enough to know that.

Yes they can. Too bad you aren't smart enough to know that. Hell Clinton pardon Rich who owed millions to the IRS.

And you are too stupid to know the difference. It's going to be revealed that Trump pardoned these folks over his own crimes. That wasn't the case with Clinton.

If you believe that shit then it shows just how stupid you are.

And boy are you stupid.

Thanks for letting us know that you have no counter argument to mine. Now move along. You lost and gave up.

You have proof of Trumps wrong doing?? Didn't think so. Run along now and try to impress someone else with your stupidity.

 

[ReinyDays]

Wrong game ... Biden doesn't dare pursue The Donald ... or Biden will be pursued by the next administration ...

President Ford's logic is sound ... do we want the Biden administration to do nothing else BUT pursue criminal charges against The Donald's administration ... eight years is only a good start, and this at the expense of national defense, trade, immigration ... these types of investigations and trials take decades, the folks pursued will live long and happy lives and die a natural death long before they're brought to justice ...

Only to start over again once we elected someone else as President ...

just so I understand....you referring to the crimes committed that a 30 million dollar investigation could not find? Or the crimes committed that the FBI could not find? Or the crimes committed that the CIA could not find? Or are you referring to the crimes committed that Rachel Maddow found?

Which crimes are you referring to?

They found the crimes. The Republican Senate Report found the crimes. But Billy Barr is as corrupt as trump. The next AG won’t be. And the statute of limitations still has a few years left.

They found the crimes? How do you know? Exactly who told you that?

DO you ever consider the source?

Likely not.

You are too wrapped up in spelling errors to win a debate.

What law has Trump violated?

Money laundering
bank fraud
insurance fraud

That’s for starters, and they have him dead to rights. In short order add treason to the list.

Ok, you listed some crimes.

Now show us exactly what actions Trump took that violated those crimes.

The best thing Biden can do for democracy and our nation is to prosecute the trump criminals to the fullest extent of the law.

Biden should stay the hell out of it. Appoint a pit bull for an AG, then let them handle everything. No comments, no opinions from Biden. That’s how he keeps it from being a political battle rather than a criminal investigation.

My choice would be Eliot Spitzer. Especially since Biden is keen on appointing a Republican somewhere. Spitzer is an ex-AG, ex-Governor, and The Sheriff of Wall Street.

You're right.

That's basically what I meant.

Obama famously said he wasn't going to dwell on the past and look forward.

So most of the crimes committed in the bush boy years went unprosecuted.

I don't want Biden to do the same thing.

Elliott Spitzer is a very good choice for AG.

So a constitutional scholar wants to ignore the constitution?

Typical prog.

What's being ignored?

If Ford was able to Pardon Nixon out of being prosecuted, a Pardon can be pretty much be given for any reason.

Making up some "obstruction of justice" excuse is just that, an excuse for what progs like you really want to do, punish ThoughtCrime.

If it were given for any reason, any president could do the same for one's self, therefore making him or her above the law. If, for example, which is likely the case with Trump, he pardoned his buddies to stay quiet about him, and they lost their fifth amendment rights after words, told on Trump to save their own skins, and you still couldn't prosecute Trump, them Trump is immune to the law. You can't have it both ways. Get a clue.

lol. How naive.

Lets take a look.

Nixon resigned before he was removed from office. Therefore Ford had to pardon him.

Trump was impeached and not removed from office, he did not resign, he had no charges levied against him....just accusations.

If he needed to be pardoned he would have resigned and have pence pardon him.

You are naive and acting silly with this thread.

Dude, get a fucking clue. What Ford did was nothing more than covering for his own lawless ass. Nothing in the Constitution protects anyone from committing crimes in the commission of a pardon. Uncanny return of Agnew's politics the basis of 'Bag Man' podcast

So you had no issue with the Mark Rich pardon?
If you did, why would you ever consider Hillary a viable candidate?

Or do you know nothing about the Mark Rich pardon..

My guess is you dont....dude.

Hillary wasn't president. Clear enough for you?

It's like me trying to blame Trump for Melania being a prostitute. Your analogy is too weak and silly.

I don't believe you understand. Current regimes don't go after previous regimes because current regimes become previous regimes. If Quid Pro goes after TRUMP!, the next Republican president will go after him. It's the reason TRUMP! didn't go after Hillary or Obama, Obama didn't go after Bush, and Bush didn't go after Bubba. Whether you like it or not, that's the way it goes. Ex-Presidents are largely left alone to ghost write books, make speeches and party on the beach in Maui.

There’s no blanket pardoning. Trump would have to pardon federal crimes that he’d be admitting to. He can’t pardon state crimes. So many low hanging pinatas to beat nonsense in challenging the hard stuff.

No, you don't understand. Trump called for Hillary to be locked up. And? The result was nothing. Trump had nothing. He never will have anything. That was to stoke his base, nothing else.

As for Biden going after Trump, he has no other choice. Trump created a criminal organization by using the oval office to do it, and that has to be stopped. Period!
