As someone who's a constitutional law professor, this is really irksome.
It looks like there was an offer of a quid pro quo from the Adams team to Trump's DOJ.
Well, it would fit a pattern of the Trump pardons, both in his first term and early in his second term. He has had a habit of pardoning people who have violated anti-corruption laws, whether they're white collar crime anti-corruption laws or campaign finance laws.
It's hard to know who Trump will pardon next. One of the more recent pardons was for The former governor of Illinois, Rod Blagojevich, he was a Democrat. So I'm not sure whether the Democratic label matters so much to Trump. He seems much more... interested in undermining anti-corruption laws left, right, and center.
It might actually help. The Roberts Supreme Court has been steadily deregulating corruption. They've done this both in white-collar crime cases and in campaign finance cases.
