Glenn Beck: The reasons Biden’s corrupt ‘pardons’ should not be upheld

Concerns Over Recent Pardons

A fresh surge of widespread pardons has raised significant constitutional concerns. It’s not necessarily about the individuals involved but more about the implications of the actions themselves. Many are questioning whether such pardons even warrant justification.

Critics argue that these new pardons alter legal precedents and expand executive power into areas the Founding Fathers cautioned against.

“It’s spiraling out of control. These pardons are, quite frankly, excessive,” remarked Glenn on “The Glenn Beck Program.” “This is a constitutional right that has been in place since George Washington’s presidency. The president has always had this authority, and it’s within his discretion.”

However, there are claims that this privilege has been misused under the Biden administration.

“One simply states, ‘I pardon everyone in my administration for their misdeeds.’ How absurd is that?” Glenn continues.

“There’s supposedly an immunity agreement, but how would a prior pardon even work? It’s quite the convoluted idea. … Hunter Biden has been found guilty of wrongdoing, and then a pardon? That’s not how it’s supposed to operate,” added Stu Bruguiere, a host on Blaze TV.

Stu agreed with Glenn’s concerns. “Those pardons were granted after many questions about whether crimes were committed at all. It adds a layer of complexity. Honestly, I’m done with these pardons,” he further stated.

“The Founders were astute; they foresaw the need for constitutional amendments,” he noted. “Personally, I think we need to eliminate the pardon power entirely. It’s had its time, and it’s going awry,” he explained.

Glenn mentioned that former President Barack Obama also utilized pardons to relieve individuals serving long sentences for nonviolent drug offenses, while notably excluding violent offenders from such relief.
