Also technically Flynn, who was trying o withdraw his guilty plea and hadn’t been sentenced.
Bannon was previously convicted in a similar federal case in 2020 but was later pardoned by Trump in one of his final acts as president.
I’m sure that article is mistaken.![]()
Steve Bannon released from prison after 4-month sentence
Firebrand right-wing influencer Steve Bannon served a four-month sentence for defying a subpoena from a congressional committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol.www.cbsnews.com
Again, Flynn was convicted, right. ?
Pardons are to correct an injustice. So in your example, the injustice was being convicted without committing an offense.If someone is wrongfully convicted, how can they be pardoned if they committed no "offense"?
I’m sure that article is mistaken.
Bannon’s pardon was especially notable given that the prosecution was still in its early stages and any trial was months away. Whereas pardon recipients are conventionally thought of as defendants who have faced justice, often by having served at least some prison time, the pardon nullifies the prosecution and effectively eliminates any prospect for punishment.

You're wrong.......It's IM#2Yup....show me the person, and I'll show you the crime.
Right out of 'Marxist 101'. Right up IM2stupid's alley.
True, but democrats did it all the time.The constitution says that people can't be investigated for no reason also.
Mick Mulvaney just said the swampiest thing ever
"If you were a lobbyist who never gave us money, I didn't talk to you. If you were a lobbyist who gave us money, I might talk to you." - Mick Mulvaney
Moroner has never had anything.pursuit is not the same as pardoning them,,
from you trying to spin the topic tells me you have nothing,,
YesPardons are to correct an injustice. So in your example, the injustice was being convicted without committing an offense.
They're legal, but they're not good optics.I agree. This whole line of thinking that Biden's pardons aren't legal is just stupid.
No. Documents show a grand jury could/might have indicted him for three crimes but he was never officially charged with a crime.Nixon had three charges leveled against him!!!
lol. If Trump wants to use Biden's pardons to put someone in jail, he will probably fail. He should find other ways.The whole idea of a preemptive pardon is nonsense. Like talking about a non-deadly murder.

Which of Quid Pro Joe's pre-emptive pardons are for wrongful convictions? I'm sure they were in the news somewhere.Pardons have been used to forgive someone wrongfully convicted.
Quid Pro has just opened the door for an incoming president to issue pardons for his entire administration to shield them from investigation or prosecution.The whole idea of a preemptive pardon is nonsense. Like talking about a non-deadly murder.

If the state thinks they are innocent they do not get a pardon; they get a reversal of conviction.Pardons have been given to people because they were felt to have been innocent. Therefore, they committed no offense.
