WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden has pardoned Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired Gen. Mark Milley and members of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, using the extraordinary powers of his office in his final hours to guard against potential “revenge” by the incoming Trump administration.
The decision by Biden comes after Donald Trump warned of an enemies list filled with those who have crossed him politically or sought to hold him accountable for his attempt to overturn his 2020 election loss and his role in the storming of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump has selected Cabinet nominees who backed his election lies and who have pledged to punish those involved in efforts to investigate him.
“The issuance of these pardons should not be mistaken as an acknowledgment that any individual engaged in any wrongdoing, nor should acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for any offense,” Biden said in a statement. “Our nation owes these public servants a debt of gratitude for their tireless commitment to our country.”

It’s customary for a president to grant clemency at the end of his term, but those acts of mercy are usually offered to everyday Americans who have been convicted of crimes. But Biden has used the power in the broadest and most untested way possible: to pardon those who have not even been investigated yet. And with the acceptance comes a tacit admission of guilt or wrongdoing, even though those who have been pardoned have not been formally accused of any crimes.

It is unlikely to stand on this principle, however it will fuel the left's outcry about Trump out of control witchunt bla

Who's to say Donald Trump can't pre-emptively pardon anyone involved in a REAL insurrection who will hang until dead all his political enemies?

Its pretty obvious what Biden is doing, he's trying to set precedent. If unopposed, precedent will be set. If the Supreme court says "Nah", its "Trump's" and his supreme court blah thats been weaponized and is engaging in tyrrany. The tail will wag the dog at every turn

In fairness, there would be many more articles if USAID wasn't being raped by DOGE

Are the Indian news organizations trustworthy?

They're in some kind of nepotism network with the jeets in YouTube and Google, so I figured this inherent corruption angle made them less trustworthy. Plus, they were most of the few sources I could find for a couple of stories on YT.

Can't say, but in that jeets are generally not trustworthy I would default to "no". The only news agency I trust is Epoch Times

As >>381897 said, The Epoch is managed by the subversive group Falun Gong, which is bankrolled by.... (American Agency here).

Probably true, but their reporting tends to be better than most mainstream news outlets.

I that isn't a high bar to set, but I'm not sure the epoch times even reaches that. Didn't they promote the Qanon crap?

Not to my knowledge, in fact Id be very surprised to learn they had, because that's not how they tend to operate. But if (you) know something I don't, pony up.
