That headline is extremely misleading, in case anyone is wondering. Certainly no fraud was involved.

Bitch away, LD, bitch away...
Triggered...LOL!
Then why does the President have the power to assassinate US Citizens at will?
Apparently the pilot was an unidentified woman who was undergoing flight instruction. Close enough.
It was not "dicta." It was part of the actual basis leading them to the decision they rendered in the case.
- A pardoned person must introduce the pardon into court proceedings, otherwise the pardon is considered a private matter, unknown to and unable to be acted on by the court.
- No formal acceptance is necessary to give effect to the pardons. If a pardon is rejected, it cannot be forced upon its subject.
The US Supreme Court has disagreed with you:
"...:a 1915 Supreme Court decision. In Burdick v. United States, the Court ruled that a pardon carried an "imputation of guilt" and accepting a pardon was "an admission of guilt.”. Thus, this decision implied that Nixon accepted his guilt in the Watergate controversy by also accepting Ford’s pardon."
So, even a scumbag like Nixon knew the deal.
The DOJ under Biden clearly stated that acceptance of a pardon required an admission of guilt of the crime.
You might be more convincing if the family members Biden pardoned weren't being investigated by a congressional committee over the last two years, who have shown evidence of them receiving millions of dollars from foreign sources despite offering no known product or service.
