The Burdick decision stated that a pardon carries "an imputation of guilt and acceptance of a confession of it" in the court's dictum for the case. While that sounds like it supports the interpretation of the scholars you mention, we have to pick apart the definitions of the words to really understand it, specifically, "imputation" and "dictum."
"Imputation" is defined as "a charge or claim that someone has done something undesirable; an accusation."
A "dictum" is a non-binding statement of opinion.
Given those definitions, what the court is saying is that, in their non-binding opinion, acceptance of a pardon can be perceived as an admission of guilt. In other words, if one accepts a pardon, people might consider it an admission of guilt. It does not establish a legal precedent, nor does it imply any form of legal establishment of guilt.
More contemporary decisions, such as Lorance v. Commandant (106 years after the Burdick decision) essentially state the same thing. And there are certainly plenty of legal scholars on my side of the debate. Brian Kalt is one such scholar, and he states the following: "'It is certainly true that as a practical matter, and a matter of public opinion, a pardon can make the recipient look guilty, but sometimes people overread Burdick and say that accepting a pardon has some sort of formal legal effect of declaring someone guilty. That is not the case.'"

Don’t worry I sent her an email asking her a few questions and pointing out her hypocrisy and I’m sure that will fix it.
Oh no, that doesn't count: The arguments these fucktards make is so sophomoric and thoughtless it becomes laughable by anyone with the slightest ability to discern.
The Duplicity of Democrats centers on anything wrong wasn't their fault and anything that's right came exclusively from them.

Whenever I hear this flaming idiot or the one from Alaska, Murcowski, I always wonder how the fuck can people elect such blatant fools, and immediately my mind goes, Shumer, Gillibrand. My mind does not accept that people are that stupid, but then, the evidence is there and cannot be denied.

Was watching some footage of deportations, and damn that's some funny and cold shit. The ICE officer asked the guy his name and a few other questions like where he was from ,etc. One of the questions was if he had ever been deported before. It went like this:
Ice Officer: Have you ever been deported from the United States before?
Illegal Immigrant: No. no.
Ice Officer: Well, life is about new experiences.
HAHAHAHA.
Ice Officer: Have you ever been deported from the United States before?
Illegal Immigrant: No. no.
Ice Officer: Well, life is about new experiences.

It sounds like he's saying we should judge people not on how they look, but on the content of their character.
The irony is just overwhelming me here.
Absofuckinglutly!
This whole DEI/woke/LGBTQ shit is tantamount to the segregation issues of the past...Soldiers ALL bleed the same color, and there is "Birds of a Feather" the whole Flock fly's together, and giving "special" treatment and recognition to those of deviant and/or mentally defective behavior are over.
