Original Note:
A presidential pardon can only be issued after a crime has been committed. Although they may be issued before a conviction, Pardons can not be issued “preemptively” before a crime has occurred. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pardon https://www.bostonherald.com/2021/01/12/yes-presidents-can-issue-pre-emptive-pardons/
