House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) tweeted that Congress is currently probing reports that President Trump “privately dangled” presidential pardons in an alleged attempt to obstruct investigations into his conduct.
Schiff did not specify when the pardons were allegedly privately offered, or whom they concerned.
But he said: “Yesterday, the White House refused to rule out a pardon for Paul Manafort. That Trump does so in the open is no less corrupt.”
