Trump To Scrutinize Pardons Biden Issued Before Leaving Office
• Zero HedgeAuthored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times,
President Donald Trump's newly tabbed pardon attorney said on May 13 that his work will include scrutinizing pardons that former President Joe Biden issued just before leaving office in January.
"I do think that the Biden pardons need some scrutiny. And they need scrutiny because we want pardons to matter and to be accepted and to be something that's used correctly," Ed Martin, the pardon attorney, told reporters during a press briefing in Washington.
"So I do think we're going to take a hard look at how they went and what they did and if they're, I don't know, but null and void, I'm not sure how that operates," he added.
Biden's pardons, issued in his final hours in office, went to multiple individuals, including former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.).
