    U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell on Tuesday released a heavily redacted order that described what she called a “bribery-for-pardon” investigation.

    About half of the 18-page document was blacked out, with the publicly available version providing few details of the alleged scheme, and naming none of the people potentially involved.

    It said federal prosecutors in Washington said they had obtained evidence of a bribery scheme in which someone “would offer a substantial political contribution in exchange for a presidential pardon or reprieve of sentence.”"

    Is anyone surprised?
    We have a president who uses campaign funds to pay hush money to porn stars he fucked withou condoms while his wife was 9 months pregnant.

    There is no sleaze that would surprise me concerning TrumpCo.

    Could be. At this point, all we can do is guess.

    This happened in August.

    I wonder if it would have affected the election if this news had come out then...

    Well, we don't know who it is that is being investigated.

    Somebody in the White House...

    Trying to raise a lot of money...

    Able to grant presidential pardons...

    It seems like there MIGHT be one individual in who meets all of those descriptions.

    But then we add the very quick tweet by President Trump himself that it's 'fake news,' well, that sounds like a: 'It wasn't me,' if ever there was one.

    Ya hear what I'm sayin?

    This is clearly a set up by the Pedo Biden crowd who are desperately out to get the saint Donald Trump.

    The DEEP STATE "pizza" crowd in the FBI and Justice Department are just trying to deflect attention from the "day care scandal" they have set up.

    An interesting thought:

    If President Trump is charged with bribery in connection with selling a pardon, and he believes he has the power to pardon himself from any crime, then who is to stop him from doing so?

    But, of course, the current DOJ does not believe they are allowed to charge the president with any crime.

    So it would fall upon the House to bring articles of impeachment for bribery.

    Then the question arises:

    Would the Senate convict Trump of bribery?

    What if charges don't come until after Trump concludes his term?

    In that case, he can be charged because he would no longer be a sitting president.

    And he would no longer have the power to pardon himself.

    ...

    How about this?

    He resigns just before January 20th.

    Barr charges him with bribery.

    Pence becomes president for the duration, and pardons Trump from the bribery charge.

    It cannot be undone by Biden.
