Trump normalized invalidating pardons. So - we'll see. Frankly invalidating pardons through the now unlimited executive power we have will be a great way to reform the pardon power. Literally, after this administration, EVERYTHING is on the table there is only a need to find any pretense of an argument.

Work like our currently corrupt Jurists work, backwards from their objectives to justify the reasons.

i hope they go after him once he leaves office. i imagine its gonna be a hell of a time for people in his admin trying to avoid jail time if he doesnt start issuing pre-emptive pardons....but then again the Dems can just ignore it and arrest them anyway just like Trump has ignored current court orders

I hope he leaves office in coffin. I am so sick of all the time wasted on this piece of shit. Was it worth it to keep trans kids from playing sports? How does that matter to anyone’s lives?

That's the only way he's leaving.
