After granting pardons to such fine upstanding citizens like Flynn (who plead guilty) and Manafort (who was a convicted tax cheat), it looks like Pardon-Palooza might finally be over....

If you were hoping for a last-minute pardon from President Trump, ABC News' Jonathan Karl has some bad news for you. After last week's assault on the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters...Trump is not in the pardoning mood, Karl told anchor David Muir... "The president has been warned, David, by some of his lawyers that if he goes ahead and pardons himself, he could be more vulnerable to civil lawsuits, including from some of those injured in the Capitol riot, because a self-pardon would be seen as an admission that he did something wrong..." Karl said. "The president is angry...So the attitude seems to be: 'If I can't get a pardon, then nobody else should get one, either.'"

So this is one of the times when Trump's little pouty temper tantrums has actually worked FOR the cause of justice.
