Schiff Opposes Biden's Preemptive Pardons Amid Trump's Prosecution Threats
Dec 15, 2024, 08:15 PM
Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) has voiced his opposition to President Joe Biden issuing preemptive pardons as he leaves office, arguing that such a move would set an undesirable precedent. Schiff, who was recently sworn in as a senator, expressed his concerns during an interview on ABC News's 'This Week.' He highlighted his pride in the work he did on the January 6th Capitol riot Committee, suggesting that preemptive pardons are unnecessary. Schiff's comments come amidst discussions about President-elect Donald Trump's intentions to potentially prosecute members of the committee upon taking office. Trump has also hinted at pardoning some of the January 6th protesters, a decision Schiff believes contradicts the public's desire for addressing crime rather than rewarding those involved in the Capitol attack. Schiff has communicated his stance both publicly and privately to the Biden administration.
