According to SCOTUS’ own wording on the matter it appears the pardon may have been permitted. They do not allow future pardons however (so no, Trump could not do this) but any crime that already happened whether it was criminally prosecuted or not is permitted. (I’m still not fully sure whether the specific crime has to be mentioned in the pardon but it appears to me that a blanket check could be allowed as the one Hunter received) here’s is a link to my other post on the SCOTUS ruling. https://greatawakening.win/p/199hzUrg2v/scotus-has-ruled-blanket-pardons/
