    President Donald Trump's associates are making appeals to him in the hopes of obtaining pardons before he leaves office, a source familiar with the matter told CNN on Tuesday.
    The source said the list of associates broaching the subject of preemptive pardons that would seek to shield those individuals from prosecution includes Rudy Giuliani, who has been leading the President's long-shot legal battles to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in his role as Trump's personal attorney.
    Since the election, Trump has been discussing with advisers preemptively pardoning several people close to him, including his children, son-in-law and Giuliani, a separate source familiar confirmed to CNN. The potential pardon list includes others who are close to the President and could be legally vulnerable but have not been charged.

    Wow. :smh:

    First, we have an allegation of "pay for pardon", now this? Yikes.

    This situation is getting farther and farther out there.

    Do you think that Trump will pardon Rudy and others?

    I don’t see pardoning any of them unless he’s got assurances that he has one also. And a self pardon is of questionable legality

    I honestly wonder if Trump would even attempt the "self-pardon"?

    Because if that happened, it would absolutely end up in The Court.

    I believe he will, I also think there are only three individuals on the court that would agree with a quasi dictatorship

    Well maybe that's why Giuliani ain't asking for money for being Trump's attorney, lol, he's working for a pardon.

    We have hundreds of witnesses. That is alot more credible evidence than just left biased Trump hating CNN putting out a story that Rudy already called false. They will say anything to make Trump look bad.

    Rudy says it's false. CNN is left biased and hates Trump. They are not credible at all. They have lied so many times in the past they are FAKE news.

    Yeah, well the DOJ seems to be investigating this one. Not so much with your "100's of witnesses", lol.

    So the FBI is investigating witnesses and even if the DOJ does not it does not make them less credible.

    As much as you wish this was true it sounds made up and nothing will come of it. It's just a news story to get Trump haters all excited.

    Well, according to Rudy, yes, 'you' have hundreds of witnesses. Let me know when any of them get to actually testify in Court, where it matters.

    Why is time not on 'your' side? Doesn't Humpty have an army of loyal dedicated and paid Lawyers working around the clock and hundreds of witnesses? What is holding up the real show, as opposed to the teasers?
