I absolutely hate that it came to this, but this is also the right move by Biden.

Biden Issues Preemptive Pardons to Guard Against Trump's Reprisals. Just hours before leaving office, he used his executive power to protect people targeted for reprisals by his successor, including Mark Milley, Anthony Fauci, and Liz Cheney.

While I disagree with some of Biden's moves, I will miss him every day.
I’m angry. Biden is a good man. But he’s a weak man.
I don't.
Or out of a window.
America 2025, I don't know ya.
And this whole Biden's-too-old narrative we've been fed for years? A bunch of bull, because that doesn't apply to Trump?
Makes me sick.
President Biden had to protect them against *their own party*.
Biden being a President for all Americans even in this.
Biden did make the right move-agree w/ you.
I will never understand why trump has so much hatred towards people who are exceptional and brilliant.
He was given so much but it's never been enough. He rapes, murders, tortures and corrupts to settle imaginary scores and exact revenge.
I’m not sure what pardons will do safety-wise when Trump’s rabid dogs will continue to attack while he gets off on watching.
But a public trial might have made it clear the cost of letting these people be in charge. I hope Cheney doesn't accept.
the crime. It's a shame
it's one president protecting against malevolent revenge acts by the incoming powers.
That man is a sh!t stain on us all. An orange sh!t stain.
This has a lot of people confused and worried!
I'll bet Trump is bigly mad about it, which isn't good, but it's better than the alternative.
I got sick of watching the cheesy theater & turned the channel. He can't just say what he's going to do. (Which is BS anyway.). He has to trash anyone who came before him. When WAS America "great?" Insecure prick.
I'm looking everywhere for an explanation as to how or why POTUS47 can't ignore this and use (abuse) their SCOTUS powers to reverse and pursue vindictive investigations and criminal or civil court proceedings?
That warrants questioning.
People have been going after the Vindman brothers for years.
.. and probably scared. I feel terrible for them. They should have been one of the first on the pardon list.
This is bonkers, America.
The constitution provided the tools to depose of a tyrant, but Republican fascists co-conspirators refused to implement them.
Satan's claimed a LOT of 'conservative' souls.
Even stooping to these preemptive levels, while they suck, if somehow it ends IT, yay!
