Summary

In his final hours as president, Joe Biden issued preemptive pardons to Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired Gen. Mark Milley, and members of the Jan. 6 Committee, aiming to shield them from potential retaliation by the incoming Trump administration.

Trump has hinted at targeting those who opposed him or investigated his actions.

Biden stressed that the pardons do not imply wrongdoing but protect reputations and finances from politically motivated investigations.

This unprecedented move reflects concerns about threats to democracy under Trump’s return to power.
