In former President Joe Biden's final hours as the President of the United States, he pardoned members of his family and notable figures like Anthony Fauci and Mark Milley, along with other "J6 Committee" members.

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) criticized President Biden’s decision to pardon Anthony Fauci, Gen. Mark Milley, former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and other members of the House panel

Joe Biden in some of his final acts as U.S. president on Monday pardoned Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired general Mark Milley, House committee members who investigated the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and members of his own family.

President Donald Trump used a speech at Emancipation Hall to air out grievances against his rivals after giving his inauguration speech in the Capitol Rotunda.

President Biden preemptively pardons Dr. Anthony Fauci, former GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, and retired Gen. Mark Milley to protect them from Trump inquiries.

Biden’s last-minute use of his pardon power comes on the heels of another controversial grant of clemency to his son, Hunter Biden, who he absolved of a sweeping list of tax and other crimes committed over a decade-long period.

The pardons shield some of Donald Trump’s biggest political foes from prosecution just hours before his inauguration.

Pardons were flying all over Washington on Monday like a flock of birds or airplanes during peak hours at Reagan Airport.

After years of the Biden Justice Department going after and convicting more than 1,500 people — including older retired grandparents — of misdemeanor activities not related to the riot, Trump pledged during his campaign that he would grant pardons to most defendants.

President Donald Trump pivoted quickly from a scripted inauguration speech to venting about losing a "rigged" 2020 election and Biden’s 11th-hour pardons for Liz Cheney, Gen. Mark Milley and Dr. Anthony Fauci.

"I think this was a better speech than the one I made upstairs,” Trump said in a second rambling speech that was darker than the first.
