Biden Weighs Preemptive Pardons for Fauci, Schiff, Cheney, and Milley Amid Fears of Trump's Retribution
Dec 6, 2024, 04:45 PM
President Joe Biden and his senior aides are reportedly considering issuing preemptive pardons to protect current and former public officials who may be targeted by the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump. Potential recipients include Dr. Anthony Fauci, Representative Adam Schiff, former Representative Liz Cheney, and General Mark Milley. White House Counsel Ed Siskel and Chief of Staff Jeff Zients are leading the discussions amid fears of political retribution, as Trump has hinted at plans for revenge against his adversaries. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed the possibility, stating, 'Certainly the president is looking at reviewing next steps, and there'll be more to come.' The move underscores the heightened tensions surrounding the upcoming transition of power.
