Session 18 - Everyone Gets a Pardon! (Pardon Me? Part 2)
In part two of our discussion about the presidential clemency power, we discuss the often controversial history of the pardon power. Which presidents issued the most pardons, which issued the fewest, and some of the most significant, and repugnant, pardons in US history. There were definitely some surprises in there for both of us. Feelings were had.
We then wrap the discussion by addressing the big question on everybody's mind: Can the president pardon himself?
As always, you can find supplemental info, episode promotions, and more on Facebook and Instagram (@FiresideBreakdowns). And, please, leave us a review if your platform allows! It would mean the world to us.
