The article by Kyle Cheney discusses the recent exercise of presidential pardon powers by Donald Trump and Joe Biden, highlighting how both presidents extended their pardoning abilities in controversial and unprecedented ways. This expansion raises concerns about the constitutional implications and the potential misuse of unchecked presidential authority.
Vero’s thoughts on the news:
The constitutional framework of the United States grants the president considerable latitude in granting pardons, but recent actions by both Trump and Biden demonstrate the need for a review of these broad powers. As an individual deeply involved in technology and software development, it’s clear that just as unchecked permissions can lead to security vulnerabilities and misuse within an app, so too can unrestricted presidential powers lead to potential overreach and ethical dilemmas. This suggests a need for refining the system to balance authority with accountability.
