Abolish the pardon power.

The DOJ clemency list has been updated with 30 names across 9/3 (29) and 9/8 (one). www.justice.gov/pardon/cleme...

The executive shouldn't even have pardon power like this. It isn't a royal position, ffs. If there's some good reason the federal government should have a pardon power, it should require some kind of public hearing and a majority in Congress to do it. Between Biden & Trump, it's getting ridiculous.

100 percent correct. One of the first reforms the new Democratic Congress should put into place. Too bad we can't rescind the ones Voldemort handed out like candy.

Excellent reporting Liz! Thank you for keeping us informed. Trump has no oversight and it’s devastating to our country ‼️

Thirty clemencies granted September 3. No White House announcement. Nearly a week later, only 11 recipients identified. One of them had his 1.6 million dollar restitution wiped out two months after DOJ itself denied his request. That is the actual pattern here.
