Schiff offers bill to discourage Trump from granting pardons in Russia probe
By John Bowden - 04/18/18 11:37 AM EDT

California Rep. Adam Schiff (D) has introduced a bill that would give Congress oversight on any pardon granted by President Trump to a subject of the Russia investigation or any other criminal matter involving his family members.

In a press release Tuesday, Schiff announced the Abuse of the Pardon Prevention Act, which would force the Justice Department to turn over case files for any investigation involving a member of the president's family to the House Judiciary Committee if that family member is granted a pardon.

The information would also be supplied to the House Intelligence Committee if it contained classified information, Schiff's bill notes.

Defacto unconstitutional.

The President, and only the President, is granted enumerated, specific and unrestricted powers regarding pardons.

The Prez has constitutional plenary power over pardons. This is a nonstarter.
