BREAKING: Biden’s White House Weighs Pardoning Trump’s Targets!

hi everyone Harry here to talk about preemptive Pardons and man this is a mess typically at the end of an Administration there's a lot of Pardons to be considered it's not uh unprecedented for example to give to a family member as Biden did to Hunter I've also argued separately it was a Justified pardon because Hunter had been treated unfairly based on his name and that's a um a reason to uh extend uh clemency at the end but necessarily politicize things and torque things up even more and Hunter was one of depending on how you count

50 100 more on different enemies lists that Trump and people in Congress and cash Patel have made one 100% clear they want to try to prosecute even though the prosecutions would be completely illegitimate so let's see uh the the any member of the January 6 committee but especially Adam Schiff and Liz Cheney for what nothing but but uh the uh subtext here is if you go after someone criminally you can make their lives miserable you can make them spend all kinds of money you can distract them from any sort of work you can dirty them

up and their public reputation we're now talking about a new Senator and Liz Cheney who needs to reconstruct her life but so there there's that level people there's just normal people who uh Trump ha is wants to stamp out because they just crossed him as he sees it Michael Cohen would be a good example but C Hutchinson it looks like Bill bar anyone who uh you know basically wasn't fully loyal as he saw it so that is a horrifying deeply anti-constitutional Prospect so what do you do now if you're Joe Biden and so we the

reports are coming in that there's all kinds of sort of highlevel caucusing of doing pardons that in a normal world I mean certainly in a world where everyone played fair and you could count on them to follow the rules you wouldn't have to do and even in a normal political um you know somewhat down and dirty world you wouldn't have to but you're about to surrender the Reigns of power to a vengeful mad man who has no um Lookout whatsoever for the normal limitation on um prosecutions indeed has has asserted that he's going to be

completely involved even though that's a rank violation of the way we've done things and and that has been a what's permitted us to say we pursue Justice without fear favor since at least Watergate so imagine now the intricate and difficult discussions in the White House do you issue a just blanket kind of Pardon and it needs to be blanket um by the way as it was for Hunter uh an unusual feature the of the hunter paron was its full and unconditional to try to keep uh Trump or the AG or Patel from coming back with

a new diff kind of charge so you have to worry about that but talk about a political U Move it would be the most in a sense poltical ize broad use of Pardons um in American history on the other hand it would be done to blunt as best one can what would what otherwise will be a completely improper anti-constitutional um Corruption of the prosecutorial process so you know PRS already are discretionary we talked about this with Hunter Biden involve a whole kind kind of Brew of political and legal and Equitable considerations presidents are very aware

of how they can affect the president's legacies I think um people agree I think it's the case that um Biden especially since he said he wouldn't took a hit uh in granting a pardon to Hunter so now he has to consider really going out with what would be a a kind of of um breathtaking uh use of the pardon power but a constitutional one to try to blunt what would otherwise be a sort of Reign of Terror so what do you do do you you know just play by the rules even though uh there's going

to be this terrible wave of unfairness coming and you're the only one who can do anything about it and now do you do it selectively you know do you it's clear that if you pardon everybody in sight you will arm Trump with a very strong position that uh it was Biden and the dens who politicized things of course that won't be accurate historically but it will be in response to or kind of anticipated reaction to What would otherwise be this whole series of prosecutions of Vengeance so anyway that's what's happening now in the White House

they got about a month or so and does he try to protect the ones who are most at risk like Michael Cohen does he try to protect the ones who could be most damaged or Mo uh most unfair to go after like Adam Schiff or Liz Cheney uh does he include all kinds of other offenders you have Kim Jeff the minority leader now saying don't just do them do a lot of regular people as one does often at the end of administration who the federal government and Justice have disserved by putting them in for too

long it is really an intricate mess and because it's bound up in you know you can try to play and maybe this will be the alternate answer you can try to play it uh straight and depart only minimally from what would otherwise be your practice in recognition of what looks pretty damn likely to be uh Trump's practice uh once the Reigns of power come to him but is the right thing to do the presidential thing to do the statesmanlike thing to do to try to have one tangible check on Trump's power before he can exercise

it that's some really intricate and uh historical legal uh political conversations going on now at the highest reaches of the White House and something to really follow closely in the next 5 weeks talk to you later thanks for tuning in if you enjoyed this video and other talking feds content please take a second to like And subscribe talk to you later
