Interesting question.

Does the ritual of Presidential pardons extend to non-judicial proceedings? Bergdahl will be charged and tried within the military judicial system under the Uniform Code of Military Conduct, not a civil court. Very different rules than civil court.

Congress is in charge on the regulations and laws of the military. The only job of the Pres is to carry out such laws.

Yea, but God help us, Barry is CiC.

I don’t know if he can overrule a military tribunal, but he probably can. Which is why they’re fighting this finding so hard. Because pardoning this traitor would be a big stain, on an already big stain, of his Residency.
