Can President Biden get rid of the Presidential pardon law permanently?

LIKE RELEASING TERRORIST GUN-RUNNERS, AND ANTI-AMERICAN TERRORISTS ,WHO HAVE BOMBED THE CAPITAL, AND/OR MURDERED POLICEMEN?


YOU KNOW LIKE CLINTON AND THEN OBAMA....LIKE THAT?
 
Huckabee in particular was known for his pardons. He pardoned twice as many people as his three predecessors combined. He pardoned all sorts of severe criminals, but mostly white ones.

We can't amend the Constitution to cure every little evil. We would end up like many state constitutions with hundreds of amendments. Something you favor might be nefarious to others.

You're absolutely right. We can't amend the Constitution to cure every little evil. We should concentrate on the really BIG evil ones. Like this one.

Because Switzerland has no extradition laws with the US. That means Switzerland wouldn't deport him back to the US just because he was wanted there. So long as he didn't break Switzerland's laws he could live there in the open without concern that the US would nab him for a trial.

He fled to Switzerland at the time of the indictment and never returned to the United States.

In 1989 the U.S. Justice Department ceased using statutes of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (otherwise known as the RICO Act) in tax cases such as the one in which Rich was indicted, and began relying instead on civil lawsuits.

Is that so?

As you can see, some presidents will use it to allow their thugs to commit crimes to do their dirty work.

At least change the law to state the president can not pardon someone he has a personal relationship with or can not benefit in the pardon in any way.

Trump has shown that people can break the law to help keep someone in power and not face prosecution.

The Presidential pardon could be very dangerous in the wrong hands.

Pardons has never been an important issue in American politics. How many people can you name that Obama pardoned?
 
I believe a Democratic led Congress will look into to this before Biden leaves office- But should Congress go back to the Republitards- NOT A CHANCE.

Hell, some Republican Congressmen are trying to stay out of jail now that will need a pardon from Trump- should he be re-elected.

Nixon, a Republican, pardoned more people(863) than Clinton(396) and Obama(212) combined (608). But as always, do not let reality keep you from claiming things.

Nixon was a real POS. In many ways, a bigger POS than Clinton. Obama was just a scamming slacker. The guy was really good at it, you gotta give him credit. He could sell snow to Eskimos...

Clinton was a lying, conniving, weasel and womanizer. Nixon on the other hand, he was evil.

Obama was a hard worker. Clinton was an even harder worker. trump left his bedroom at 11:00, took an hour or two lunch at 12:00, and more often than not stopped working at 3:00 or 4:00. I doubt he ever worked 20 hours in a week.

Calling Obama a slacker is just silly.

Obama was a slacker. He sluffed his work off on others. He has a long track record of that. Clinton is a lying, conniving, weasel, and womanizer. It doesn't matter what their supposed "work hours" were or are.

Look, I'm not faulting Obama or Clinton for that. They made that work for them. Quite frankly, I don't work well in a committee or group setting. Everybody's got their strengths and weaknesses. But if you aren't careful, you can work your strengths into "coffin corners." That's what you want to avoid. Clinton let his womanizing get him into one. Obama was beyond his depth as a slacker in getting others to do his work as President. Consider it the Peter Principle.

The better question is can President Biden, in particular, get rid of the menacing tyrant of the world tRump whose high crimes and crimes against humanity rivals' numerous former tyrants in history at giving humanity a break and for Justice to finally have its day against this morbidly deranged tyrant tRump? Yet nature will always be there that no mortal has any jurisdiction over it that has ways to serve its own justice on deplorable and despicable humans who have destroyed their relationship with the common decency of civilization and humanity on Earth.

That's not the issue.
What if a sitting POTUS is running for re-election and getting killed in the polls. He says to one of his goons "Take care of my opponent. Make it look like an accident. If you get caught, I'll pardon you."
