In an unprecedented and controversial move, President Joe Biden issued a series of preemptive pardons during his final hours in office on the morning of Donald Trump's inauguration.
The pardons included broad-brushed preemptive "forgiveness" for Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired Gen. Mark Milley, and members of the Jan. 6 House Select Committee, including staff and law enforcement officials who testified about the Capitol breach. So, while after years in jail, about 1,500 J-6ers were freed via pardons and 14 with commuted sentences, critics argue that justice will not be served against those responsible for their imprisonment.
