Maddow Blog | Biden issues pre-emptive pardons for potential Trump targets

^{Published on 2025-01-20 08:21:07 - MSN}

With just hours remaining, the retiring Democrat issued pardons for Mark Milley, Anthony Fauci and several people related to the Jan. 6 investigation.

President Joe Biden has issued pre-emptive pardons for individuals who might be targeted by former President Donald Trump if he were to return to office. This move, highlighted by Rachel Maddow on MSNBC, aims to protect those who have been involved in legal actions against Trump or who might be seen as political adversaries. The pardons are intended to safeguard these individuals from potential retaliatory actions or prosecutions by Trump, who has a history of using presidential powers to target his political enemies. This unprecedented step by Biden underscores the ongoing political tensions and the use of executive clemency as a tool to mitigate potential abuses of power.
