Summary
Donald Trump has exempted himself from key ethics guidelines required under the Presidential Transition Act, which he signed into law in 2020.
By rejecting federal funding for his transition team, Trump avoids donor limits and disclosure requirements, raising concerns about conflicts of interest and transparency.
Critics, including Senator Elizabeth Warren and government watchdogs, warn that Trump’s refusal to submit an ethics plan undermines accountability and could open the door to corruption.
This move marks a break from precedent and has sparked alarm over potential personal enrichment during his presidency.
Tell me of all the people Don pardoned.

Relatively few compared to his predecessors. Some real assholes on that list. It amazes me how Roger Stone isn’t under the Jail.
Lil Wayne is on that list btw.
We will get to see is how they twist the presidential pardon this coming year.
Afaik a presidential pardon is strictly federal.
State cases and Civil cases are not covered.
I’m sure the supreme Court will Fix that.
