It sure looks like Ivanka lied under oath among other crimes. I don't think federal pardons of Trump's criminal associates will hold up in court when challenged, we'll see. Donald is gonna cause the SCOTUS to settle all the outstanding issues around pardons. Trump can't self pardon for a very practical reason, if say the conservative majority on the SCOTUS said he could self pardon, then that would be a license to commit murder. Joe could call in those conservative justices pull out a gun and shoot off the right ear of each one of them on national TV, then sign himself a pardon. He could then proceed to call them morons and tell them the next time they visit he will shoot them between the eyes. Next, Joe picks up the phone and makes Mitch an offer he can't refuse.
Aside from the language of the constitution that says a president may GRANT a pardon, you grant to someone else, there are practical matters. If Donald really thought he could pardon himself, he would have murdered plenty of people by now and would actually shoot justices who ruled against him, only it would be between the eyes. Joe would have been murdered long ago, along with any other threat or challenge to Donald.
