Preemptive pardons? can that happen? >> its not clear to me. i mean, he could try to do it, but i think its just -- it could be a serious question -- well, lets put it this way, if he issues pardons to his team or to anyone who is indicted for the purpose of obstructing justice, then thats an impeachable offense. in my judgement, no question about it. richard nixon, part of the articles of impeachment against him was that he offered presidential pardons to the watergate burglars, telling them ke...

And overthrew the czar. in october the bolsheviks came to power what happened in between. there are plenty of history books but i want to know how artists experience the revolution first hand accounts first hand history. there are the diaries of sanity to give us a poet surrounded by scandal and a woman of influence her salon was legendary in st petersburg she became a chronicler of the revolution. it would be good to be blind and deaf show no interest at all and write poems about eternity and b...
