On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Pardon power. Before he leaves office, President Biden has the constitutional authority to pardon anyone he chooses for federal crimes. Some Republicans argue that pardoning Donald Trump would "heal" the country. Biden could also pardon his own son, Hunter, although he's vowed not to. I'll ask Ankush Khardori and Kimberly Atkins Stohr who they think could and should receive presidential pardons. And, raising alarms. Health experts warn that confirming Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as HHS Secretary could actually cost lives. We'll talk to Gov. Josh Green of Hawaii, a medical doctor who has first-hand experience with the consequences of RFK Jr.'s misinformation and conspiracy theories about childhood vaccinations. And the Watch List.

On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Flooding the zone.

He has a lot to say about Trump's return to the White House, and his mind-blowing cabinet picks. Plus, balance of power: Republicans succeeded in getting Matt Gaetz out before they were forced to vote on him in the new Congress. But the question remains: Will the Republican-led Senate next year show the same moxi to block any of the other unqualified or patently unfit nominees? I have my doubts, but my political panel of Susan Del Percio and Basil Smikle weigh in on this and a whole host of other political news this week.

Rep. Glenn Ivey of the House Ethics Committee shares his thoughts about the Gaetz nomination and whether we'll ever see the committee's reportedly scathing report. Plus, Trump makes good on his promise to let RFK Jr. "go wild" on health by choosing the vaccine skeptic and conspiracy theorist to be his Secretary of Health and Human Services.
