President Joe Biden’s senior aides are reportedly having vigorous internal discussions on whether to preemptively pardon a number of current and former officials who could face the wrath of President-elect Donald Trump.

      Ooh, that’s a fun idea. I assume a pardon requires a named specific person, though, no?

        Pull every expired visa, rubber stamp the pardons for all of them on the off chance the person overstayed. I think you can limit the pardon only to the “crime” of overstaying, so you’d avoid pardoning actual criminals. That would get you most of the way there.

      Did you see the Democrat’s rhetoric this election? You and I both know they won’t lift a finger.
