Pardon Me
Liz Cheney dropped a bombshell during the first session of the January 6th House committee hearing. She said that Congressman Scott Perry was one of several House Republicans who asked The Donald for presidential pardons.
Naturally, Scott Perry has vehemently denied that he asked for a pardon.
GOP Rep. Scott Perry says it's a 'soulless lie' that he sought a pardon from Trump after Liz Cheney said he did
Republican Rep. Scott Perry blasted any suggestion that he sought a pardon from President Donald Trump for himself or others, rejecting an eyebrow-raising claim that was made during the House January 6 committee's first major public hearing the day before.
"The notion that I ever sought a Presidential pardon for myself or other Members of Congress is an absolute, shameless, and soulless lie," Perry wrote on Twitter Friday.
Rep. Liz Cheney, the top Republican on the panel, revealed on Thursday night that the committee uncovered evidence that Perry and other Republican lawmakers sought pardons from Trump in the wake of the January 6 insurrection, evidence that so far has not been presented to the public. Cheney's claim was one of the hearing's key moments.
" As you will see, Representative Perry contacted the White House in the weeks after January 6th to seek a Presidential Pardon," Cheney said during her opening statement. "Multiple other Republican congressmen also sought Presidential Pardons for their roles in attempting to overturn the 2020 election."

Scott Perry is denying that he asked for a pardon because the request would indicate that he knows he was involved in a criminal conspiracy. Perry used encryption software to hide his emails from investigators. He believes that prevented the committee from obtaining evidence of his involvement. Butt the committee probably can use the emails from the people he communicated with to prove his involvement.
Many of us are wondering who the other Republican congressmen are who also sought Presidential Pardons. I suspect that Jim Jordan may be one of the guilty House Republicans who requested a pardon.
Which GOP Lawmakers Allegedly Asked Trump for a Pardon?
Questions have been raised about which GOP members of Congress allegedly asked Donald Trump for presidential pardons over their role in the January 6 attack, following Rep. Liz Cheney 's remarks about Scott Perry during the House committee's first hearing.
On Thursday, Cheney, vice-chair of the panel, said that Perry and "multiple other Republican congressmen" sought presidential pardons for their roles in attempting to overturn the 2020 election.
Perry was subpoenaed by the panel, a long with four other sitting Republican lawmakers, for evidence, all of whom have refused to cooperate.

Any Congressman who requested a pre-emptive pardon knows he (or ehe) is guilty of criminal conspiracy.

I know that those who are defending the indefensible. They will whine that there is no evidence that any of the guilty parties requested presidential pardons.
Stay tuned. The committee has several more sessions to present the evidence.
The first session was their just their "opening argument".
I would think that in any nation where most of the electorate has a modicum of intelligence, common sense and principles, should there be irrefutable evidence to prove that he is a liar, he would be voted out of office, but then....
We're talking about America here, is the omitted end to your paragraph.
You only need to follow the dots.
they Dashed, right at US. It's ok, i agree, just read my igknorantzrulz name, and you can see ive stated as much for as long as ive been stating publicly
I saw where donald said Ivanka was 'checked out'...
Throwing his own daughter under the bus.
i saw him state that to Howard Stern, asz well...
Yes, The Donald checked out Ivanka's body all of the time.
If she was so checked out, why the fuck was she calling the insurrectionists "patriots"?
In true Trump fashion, she's watching her own back.
Someone tweeted that Trump's fantasy came true, but not as he planned. He finally screwed Ivanka.
What does that mean "checked out"?
I think he was saying that she didn't want to do the job anymore and was neglecting her duties.
got it thanks
That was very literal. Haha
Today the DC Bar charged Rudy G with ethics violations for the sham lawsuit he was part of in PA.
Sidney Powell's misspelled words were embarrassing.
I have seen enough of him to last a lifetime. Him being a pervert on the bed and then that hair die (or whatever) running down his face...
Ghouliani is a shithead. That was diarrhea running out of his ears.
Did he sniff his own sweat?
I think he tasted it.
Rudy Hands in Pants will be making an encore appearance at ''Four Seasons''. Rudy will be signing copies of his porn video ''my hands are down my pants and I can't find what I'm looking for.''
It's that small, is it?
Trumps entire Administration was an ethics violation!
Olde Joe McCarthy's criminal henchman Roy Cohn, The Worst Person in the World, had three very special buttboys he took under his wing. They were his proteges and his acolytes. They were Paul Manafort, Roger Stone and Donald Trump. The rest is history...
Obviously Trump had to pardon Stone and Manafort!
Roy Cohn was gay...do you think....? Ah. Never mind
It's my understanding that if you accept a pardon you have to admit guilt.
Nixon did but never admitted any guilt
Yes, you are absolutely right. Nixon thought he was above the law.
Nixon told David Frost: "Well when the President does it; that means it is not illegal."
