Lol! ... It's being reported that a limo is parked out front of the jail Joe Exotic is being held....
My speculation at this point is that Trump has issued a self-pardon and a group of pardons to his family and close advisors. But he has ordered the Justice Department not to release the information. In a couple of days, the Justice Department will no longer be answering to Trump and there will be a belated public statement that the pardons were issued.
It's my understanding (but correct me if I'm wrong) Constitutionally speaking, he doesn’t need to inform the Justice Department about the pardons. All he needs is a reliable witness to the pardons (say, a sympathetic notary public) who can confirm their authenticity and time of issuance, if/when they are revealed to the public.
A “secret pardon” is exactly the kind of thing Trump would do. So he just keeps this in his pocket until/if he’s charged with any federal crimes, and then he goes on television and dramatically pulls it out for the cameras and says he knew that the corrupt Biden Administration would pursue a political prosecution of himself and his children, so he beat them at their own game! It’s everything Trump loves – good television, exploiting loopholes, and considering himself the WINNNER! It’d turn any trial into even more of a circus and delay any final justice for years as the validity of the pardon is litigated. At this point I’d be surprised if he doesn’t do this.
