The Justice Department has spent months investigating a “bribery-for-pardon scheme,” even as President Donald Trump was running for reelection, according to court documents unsealed Tuesday. In a 20-page heavily redacted opinion, dated Aug. 28 but posted Tuesday evening, U. S. District Judge Beryl Howell wrote that attorney-client privilege didn’t protect certain communications if they were alleged to be part of a “bribery-for-pardon scheme.” The communications involved in the bribery investigation had been copied to a third party who was not an attorney, the opinion stated. “In sum, the attorney-client privilege does not protect communications disclosed to third parties and, here [redacted] was such a third party to each of the emails submitted by the government,” the Aug. 28 opinion states. Howell, chief judge of the U. S. District Court for the District of Columbia, presided over special counsel Robert Mueller’s grand jury investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

The bribery thing may or may not have teeth. He’s corrupt and self dealing and certainly capable of it but an investigation doesn’t necessarily mean it happened. Names are redacted so it’s not even clear Trump is the target. It could be other White House officials who took bribes to push for pardons. If he’s ever tried, I think the tax and bank fraud investigation out of New York State is the most likely scenario. A presidential pardon doesn’t cover state crimes and the IRS has had him under audit since before his presidency. There’s something there to warrant that kind of scrutiny. Prosecutors are going to get his financial records and I don’t think Cuomo will shield him in any way.
Yes I believe Trump could be bribing people and pardon them to protect his ass for crimes he's done while in the White House, We would shit if Joe Biden found documents that were evidence that Biden brings forward to give to the FBI while in office
