The House of Representatives, as far back as 1873, has determined that a person cannot be impeached based on conduct prior to them holding office. In other words, House precedent says a President Hillary Clinton could not be impeached as president for crimes related to the e-mail server or the Clinton Foundation. 4

Yeah, the noose has been tightened so much that his head should have popped off by now. Gimmie a break with your fruitless rhetoric already You people need to just look at the history of Presidential pardons and shut your goddamn mouth about pardons already. I don't care which President you love or hate over the history of time................ THEY ALL have made controversial pardons. ALL OF THEM. No exceptions. So it is useless to call out Trump on them. It's just another example of you haters finding a reason to continue your hate for someone you can't stand.

Or a family member? Or someone who is associated with a crime the president himself may be involved in? Who? 18 minutes ago, DC Tom said: It's not, because...

Does the President have a time machine to do these pardons even before anyone is convicted of anything?

Sorry, I thought you were talking about "colluding with Russians." You're so half-assed and inchoate about all this, it's hard to know specifically what imaginary bull **** you're talking about at any given moment. 1

B-Man Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 Quote Jim SciuttoVerified account @jimsciutto FollowFollow @jimsciutto Breaking: Special Counsel prosecutors say Paul Manafort was "attempting to tamper with potential witnesses while on pretrial release and, accordingly, has violated the conditions of his release." Quote Jim SciuttoVerified account @jimsciutto FollowFollow @jimsciutto So Manafort sent encrypted messages to former employees to encourage them to make “materially false” claims about his lobbying for pro-Russian Ukrainian politicians. While under house arrest! I read this as Manafort's refusing to cooperate. or 1

Those who read the Manafort & Gates indictments from February should be familiar with that name. In an indictment updated Friday, special counsel Robert S. Mueller III accused Paul Manafort and Rick Gates of secretly retaining “a group of former senior European politicians to take positions favorable to Ukraine, including by lobbying in the United States.” These former European leaders would claim to provide independent assessments of the Kiev government, but would in fact be “paid lobbyists” for Ukraine. In 2012 and 2013, Manafort used at least four offshore bank accounts to wire more than 2 million euros (roughly $2.5 million) to the group, the indictment states. Though the group's members weren't named, they are collectively given an informal nickname: the “Hapsburg group,” an apparent reference (using an alternative spelling) to the Habsburg royal dynasty that ruled the Holy Roman Empire for centuries. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2018/02/24/after-hapsburg-group-disclosure-in-mueller-indictment-former-european-politicians-come-under-scrutiny/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.90617fbaef42
