Impeachment

Rumors that Biden plans to issue pardons for Fauci and everyone on the J6 committee. Why do that if they did nothing wrong?

I'm not sure who wrote it, but it's pretty much accurate. I think the founding fathers were wrong on this.

In what way?

What caught my attention was the line, "First, a crime must have been committed for a pardon to be issued."

Is that true? Based on what "controlling legal authority?" (Thanks to Mr. Gore for that one).

That is misleading and poorly written, because it gives the impression that the person has to have been guilty of something. That isn't the case. What I think they're trying to say is that the alleged or possible crime must have already occured. For example, if Hunter Biden comitts a crime tomorrow, his pardont won't protect him.

Definitely poorly written then. I read "crime" as already gone through the legal process to find a guilty verdict.
 
I’m more simple, I read it no crime no pardon regardless of conviction. Ie, if there’s no crime no need to pardon therefore if you pardon you must know there’s a crime or evidence enough such that a conviction is likely, hence preemptive. And no I never even played one on tv.

I am not sure I see the functional difference between "crime" and your interpretation. An act against a statute or the public is a crime.

Common sense dictates that one cannot pardon someone without that person or persons committing a crime. The issue is whether a crime has to be adjudicated to be a crime.

In SloJoe's Pardons, he either knows or has reason to believe, crimes have been committed, thus the pardons. What he failed to consider (or went to sleep while researching) is even with a pardon, the true facts can be discovered and published.
