Pardons for Profit Inc along with its board of dictators - Trump, Kushner, and Guliani - should have been thoroughly investigated and reported on years ago. I remember hearing about this criminal scheme at the time in brief whisperings from our few remaining respectable sources of journalism.

It seems as though our fourth estate is operating in an absurd realm of self imposed gag orderdom by trying to hold itself to the same burden of proof as required by a criminal court - a bar so high it is nearly impossible to clear (given you are represented by "good" legal counsel).
Journalism is NOT criminal court and should never act like one (in terms of tipping the scales to the "defendant's" benefit).
As the unofficial investigative arm of our society, our fourth estate can only function as intended when it does its job with integrity, without "fear or favor", and absent a ridiculous expectation of perfection in proving far beyond any doubt whatsoever that a thing did or did not happen.
