Donald Trump has promised to pardon his White House staffers, reported the Wall Street Journal’s Josh Dawsey in an exclusive report on Friday.
Dawsey, the veteran DC reporter, cited “people who have heard his comments” in the bombshell report revealing that Trump is asking his staff to operate with a sense of impunity.
“I’ll pardon everyone who has come within 200 feet of the Oval,” Trump reportedly told staffers “in a recent meeting to laughs.”
If they’re pardoned they can’t hide behind the fifth, especially if he issues the blanket pardons like he’s threatening.

They can if they don’t fear a contempt charge. Quite a few seem happy enough to entirely ignore subpoenas
