Could it be that Flynn didn't lie to Pence? That Pence was as MUST SAVE and that a deal has been made with Flynn to take the fall?

$$$ to FLYNN: from Mercer's or tRUMP or one of his LLC's or RUSSIA? Or how about that Inaug. slush fund that no one seems to have accounted for?

potus45*: assures pardon after Flynn gets the best deal he can from FBI but keeps his mouth shut.

Just Sayin..

are realistic and quite probably true.

Bush commuted Scooter Libby's 30-month federal prison sentence, but did not pardon him.

Bush Pardons Weinberger, 5 Others in Iran-Contra; Act Called Cover-Up

It calls his whole title into question, and therefore his powers as president, no? Uncharted waters here.

...and cabinet appointments, executive orders, etc , etc.

Seriously. I'm really asking.

I'm not sure if you're correct on this. If Articles of Impeachment are drafted in the House of Representatives, and even if they're passed, the president still has his full powers. He only loses power if the Senate convicts him.

It seems analogous to the concept of innocence until guilt is proven. If you're charged with a crime, you generally don't lose your rights until you've been convicted. (I know there are exceptions, particularly for violent crimes.)
