Yes, it is afaik one of the most wide reaching and indiscriminate pardons a president has ever issued, comparable to Gore's for Nixon. It taps that nebulous ability to pardon unknown crimes in a whole time span- and Nixon's was only a 5 year span.
Normal pardons only apply to specific acts or charges, after convictions. Gore set the precedent of pardoning all potential crimes so as to preclude any future trial of Nixon, and that wide ranging pardon was never tested in court
It sort of like the supreme court challenges over the attempts to prosecute Trump for his actions as president and holding documents from his time in office- it never got tested in court because no sane and unbiased prosecutor would try to bring such a case. But the democrats were demented enough with their lawfare to force it into the courts and then cried foul when the courts ruled against them and their obvious overreach. At least the limits of pardon power never got tested, because nobody disrespected the constitution enough to try to assail it like the former. And if everyone just goes back to being civil and non-demented, that's where prosecutions end: The wide ranging pardon is the final word, all federal crimes from that whole span are ruled out and won't even be investigated let alone prosecuted.


But hey that's just a perk of being president. As VP he got his son lined up to take massive bribes from Ukrainian oligarchs and dragged us into a war in the process, as President he tied up loose ends by pardoning his son, and effectively, himself.
Biden gets away with it, because the people voted him president

Somehow, dems will spin it as Trump's or Putin's fault

MSM free bullshit collection there if you ever wondered why he was prosecuted.

Is there a merit or a mechanism to overturn or challenge such a broad presidential pardon?

"politically motivated prosecutions and singling out are wrong" - dems


"trump deserves 200 years in prison and to be banned from public office for inflating collateral values on a loan he repaid" dems also.

great post my friend!

Biden pardoning his son is very symptomatic, but not the worst thing he has done as a president. By far

Good guy Joe doing America a solid

The democratic party ought to be destroyed, a one party Republican state is in everybody's interest and is necessary for an American revival
