House Democrats promise investigations, legislation after Trump commutes Roger Stone
Fox News ^ | July 11 2020 | Adam Shaw

House Democrats reacted furiously to President Trump’s Friday move to commute the prison sentence of political operative Roger Stone -- demanding an investigation and even legislation to stop similar commutations happening again.

“President Trump’s decision to commute the sentence of top campaign advisor Roger Stone, who could directly implicate him in criminal misconduct, is an act of staggering corruption,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said in a statement on Saturday.

She went on to promise that Congress would “take action” to prevent future such commutations: “Legislation is needed to ensure that no President can pardon or commute the sentence of an individual who is engaged in a cover-up campaign to shield that President from criminal prosecution.”

“Legislation is needed to ensure that no President can pardon or commute the sentence of an individual who is engaged in a cover-up campaign to shield that President from criminal prosecution.”

Right; so only terrorists, drug dealers and rapists like the ones Clinton pardoned should be eligible.

Psst. Someone tell Nancy that she cannot “legislate” away expressed constitutional powers of the President. Constitutional Amendments are a tall order, even if anyone really wanted one. Is she this stupid or just playing to the peanut gallery again?
