Biden Hesitates on Pardoning Potential 'Targets' of Trump - Media.


US President Joe Biden has not yet made a decision regarding the pardoning of Donald Trump's critics before his term ends. He mentioned that this depends on the positions Trump appoints his followers to. Some Democrats have urged Biden to pardon individuals who may pose challenges to the new Trump administration, including members of the commission investigating the Capitol riot on January 6. Democrats are particularly concerned that Trump intends to appoint Kash Patel as FBI director. Among the potential individuals for pardoning are Anthony Fauci, Mark Milley, Liz Cheney, Adam Schiff - all of whom have played significant roles in US political life. However, some politicians dismiss the idea of pardoning, believing that it indicates guilt on the part of those receiving the pardons. It is also worth noting that Biden has already announced certain pardons and commutations under public pressure.
