Just yesterday, Trump said he's going to “pardon everyone who has come within 200 feet of the Oval.” [1] Free reign for crimes for the next 2.5 years.

Maybe removing this pardoning power could be a bipartisan goal... I guess we shouldn't hold our breath.

On the bright side, if they get pardoned they can't plead the fifth and can be forced to testify against anyone not pardoned.

		Unfortunately, probably not. As they could simply invoke the fifth under the claim that they might incriminate themselves under some state law.

Pardon him for what? What is the charge here? Being a meal? Being a succulent Chinese meal?
