  • President Biden says he is still considering whether to give pardons to people who have been criticized or threatened by President-elect Donald Trump.

President Joe Biden is reportedly considering issuing pardons for individuals who have faced criticism or threats from former President Donald Trump. This consideration comes as part of Biden's broader use of his clemency powers, which he has utilized more frequently than his recent predecessors.

This move is seen as an effort to heal political divides and address the consequences of Trump's often contentious rhetoric and actions during and after his presidency. However, specific names or detailed criteria for these potential pardons have not been disclosed, keeping the initiative somewhat speculative at this stage.
