re: #72 I Would Prefer Not To
That was for a specific crime. No such thing as a blanket pardon. Until now at least.
Ford’s pardon of Nixon was pretty much a blanket pardon. So, there have been blanket pardons, and there have been mass pardons. But I’m not sure there have been mass blanket pardons.

I fully expect Trump to issue a blanket pardon to everyone in his administration and the corrupted Supreme Court will uphold it.
The pardon power (rightly or wrongly) is pretty sweeping in its scope. I would be surprised if a pardon was challenged if the Supreme Court didn’t come back 9-0 in a decision upholding it.
