    “There will be some chatter and complaints about the abuse of the pardon power and a need to reign it in, but short of a Constitutional Amendment that is not happening. Nor should it”

    From Bill Barr’s confirmation hearing:

    Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy asked Barr if a president can “offer a pardon in exchange for the witness’s promise not to incriminate the president.”

    “No, that would be a crime,” Barr replied.

    We don’t need a constitutional amendment to charge and convict a president of criminal uses of the pardon power. According to Bill Barr anyway.Report
