I don't either and I don't think a 'preemptive pardon' is even Constitutional. How can there be a pardon when there hasn't been a conviction or even an indictment?
Well, fuck it, let's just socialize preemptive presidential pardons to make it fair for everybody! Everyone should get at least 1 preemptive pardon. We can make it like socialized insurance- make it a law so that everybody needs to carry one. Then, the president himself will sign the dotted line, and mail them out to all of us.
We all deserve it.
If people who have committed no crime or have no charges pending can get those snazzy preemptive pardons, why shouldn't we all get one? I want my "fair share." Gimmie my pardon Brandon!
Dang that sounds like a good science fiction plot. In the near future, a Constitutional Amendment gave every citizen one Official Pardon per lifetime. They could apply it to any crime, but only one crime, and one time only.
But anyway yeah. I want a Get Out Of Jail Free Card too. Equal protection under the law, and all that.
Take his pension away, I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed .
"Perceived slights"
Spelled TREASON wrong!

I think Innocent until proven Guilty kinda covers that. Oh wait.
The point is no-one charged Mlley.
That's like having a "commutation of the sentence" of an unindicted, unconvicted, and unsentenced person.
Yup. I wonder if a court would award me a huge amount of money against a store I haven't slipped-and-fallen in yet?
Put him in lipstick and let him try!
“ perceived slights!?” Slights!!! Insubordination. Backstabbing. Untrustworthy. Liar. Skated pretty darn close to treason.
I am not clear on pardons. What was/is the consensus on this Board?
A pardon from FJB is not valid if 2020 is proven as fraudulent?
A pardon from FJB is not valid in a military tribunal?
What about citizens who have been pardoned by FJB?
You aint out of the hot seat yet POS
Perceived slights aka Treason.

Don't get too comfortable, Milley. Your judgement is on the horizon.
