Washington. President Joe Biden has granted pardon to Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired General Mark Milley and members of the ‘House Committee’ investigating the attack on the US Parliament House on January 6, 2021. Biden took the step in the final hours, using extraordinary powers of his office to protect against possible ‘retaliation’ by the incoming Trump administration. Biden took this decision after newly elected President Donald Trump warned his enemies of action.
Trump has included in his enemies list people who have opposed him politically or have hindered his efforts to overturn his defeat in the 2020 presidential election. Also, there was a demand to hold him (Trump) accountable for his role in the storming of the US Parliament House (US Capitol) on January 6, 2021. Trump has nominated people to his Cabinet who supported him in the election and who have promised to punish those involved in efforts to investigate him.
Biden gave a statement
Biden said in a statement that ‘the issuance of these pardons should not be construed as an admission of an individual’s involvement in any wrongdoing, nor should it be interpreted as an admission of guilt for any crime. ‘ He said, ‘Our nation is grateful to these public servants for their tireless commitment to our country.’ Fauci served as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health for nearly 40 years and was Biden’s chief medical adviser until his retirement in 2022.

Trump angry with many top officials
He played a major role in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic. The Republican leader’s resentment towards Trump increased due to his refusal to support his baseless claims. Mark Milley, the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, called Trump a fascist and provided a detailed account of Trump’s conduct regarding the January 6, 2021 incident. Biden also pardoned members and staffers of the committee tasked with investigating the January 6 incident, including former House of Representatives members Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, both Republicans, as well as those at the U.S. Capitol and D.C. Including Metropolitan Police officers who testified before the committee.
