I had guessed yesterday Friday-dump or Inauguration Eve, so Friday's gone. As for who, didn't DRUMPF say if HE couldn't have one then *nobody* could? So that list is whittled down quite a bit since he's crazy angry at everybody, even Jaredinski. It wouldn't strain credulity much if DRUMPF now tried to rescind Jared's papa's pardon.
As for GHOULiani, the word used to be that he and DRUMPF actually hate each other, but they both have so much dirt on each other that they have played nice biding their time. Going back to their Mob history - GHOUL's father or grandfather, despite his supposed Mob busting career, and DRUMPF having been part of the package when the Russian Mob took over the American Mob, plus nothing getting built without the Mob's getting a cut. So, pardon for the GHOUL is out?
Incredible that DRUMPF is mad at the entire little group that went to the dirty mat for him, on the grounds that they didn't do enough for him. HAH!1

(2,655 posts)Pardons can be issued and not announced.
The only time their existence would become known is if someone who received a pardon is ultimately charged with a crime. That's when the accused shows it to the court and it becomes public record. Otherwise, such confidential pardons can remain hidden forever.
I know this sounds a little like a conspiracy theory, but it would explain the unexpected silence about pardons during these final days.
