Last week, President Donald Trump announced three major pardons — two traditional pardons for two turkeys named Corn and Cob on Tuesday and a controversial pardon of his former national security adviser Michael Flynn on Wednesday.

By contrast, the executive clemency bestowed upon Flynn, who, after all, pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI, may bode a potentially erratic course ahead for this lame-duck administration.
