@realcaseyrollins@social.teci.world @AltonDooley @realcaseyrollins@noauthority.social @volkris @Hyolobrika If examining the motivation for a pardon is out of bounds, how can you establish a connection between the *quid* and the *quo*? Again, a pardon alone is under the President's absolute discretion, can never be a crime in and of itself. So without motive, could the prohibition against bribing for a pardon ever be enforced? 4/
