Emily Nussbaum is The New Yorker's TV critic. The other evening, when the New York Times and Washington Post reported that Team Trump was investigating how far the pardon power might extend, she tweeted:
I went out for a drink. Did a thing happen? I'm scrolling Twitter and I'm getting some impression of intensity without clear details.
Tweeted responses included:

Our President may not be the best guy. Brb with more details.
Lmao bc ur tweet is the first one under "in case you missed out" on my feed. Twitter waxes meta:)
Yeah, Donald Trump is president. No shit. This is happening.
The monster is querying about how to go about pardoning the fam. #ImpeachTrump
