The Politics of Presidential Pardons
February 19 @ 7:30 PM PST
The power of the presidential pardon has our national attention now more than ever before. In The Pardon, New York Times bestselling author and CNN legal commentator Jeffrey Toobin examines the most controversial presidential pardon in American history — Gerald Ford’s pardon of Richard Nixon – and its profound implications for our current political landscape, including the legacies of Presidents Biden and Trump. Well known for his ability to illuminate the complexities of our judicial system, Toobin has covered some of the country’s most sensational news stories and high-profile cases, such as the O.J. Simpson trial, the Starr investigation of President Clinton, Martha Stewart’s legal battles, and numerous Supreme Court cases.
