Before President Biden issued pardons for his family members, the media took aim at President Trump for floating the idea of preemptive pardons before he left office in 2021.

Biden shocked many of his supporters last month when he pardoned his son Hunter from all present and future crimes out of fear that the coming Trump administration would single him out. Monday’s pardons seem to be protecting some of the right’s favorite bogeymen from Trump’s vengeance, which could come soon after he is sworn in later in the day.

In his final hours in office, he pardoned Milley, Fauci and the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6 attack.
