Why bother reporting this - it's obviously happening and it's obvious that nothing is going to happen about it.

For sure nothing will happen with the defeatist attitude
It does encourage you to focus on something that you might be able to fix, instead of being constantly dragged from one outage to the next.
Or we can use this camel's straw to finally draw a bit of inspiration from our French compatriots. The power these people wield is artificial, and we're capable of taking it away.
Nothing will happen until the mid terms or 2028.

This administration highlights why the pardon provisions of the constitution need amendment.

In such a scenario, people shouldn't acquiesce. Be creative and find ways of bringing hurt to those in this administration who feel they can dodge consequences. If no example is made of them, it will happen again.
The pardon is limited to federal offenses, state prosecution is still viable.
Well, given it’s a federal crime, pardons will happen.
Is it a crime?
Unless you’re in Congress? Yes.
