President Biden has pardoned Dr. Fauci and others as a preemptive measure against potential retaliation from the incoming Trump administration, stressing the necessity of these actions.
Biden stated that his pardons should not be seen as acknowledgments of wrongdoing, emphasizing that public servants deserve gratitude for their commitment, regardless of the political climate.
In his statement, Biden highlighted the rarity of granting pardons to individuals not formally investigated, noting that these actions were necessary to protect reputations from undue damage.
Biden justified these pardons based on exceptional circumstances, asserting that the mere act of being investigated can irreparably harm individuals, even if they have done nothing wrong.
