President Biden’s last-minute pardons aimed at shielding his administration’s figures from potential retaliation by President-elect Trump have raised legal concerns. Among the pardoned are Liz Cheney and Dr. Fauci, but legal experts argue the pardons do not protect them from testifying under oath. Biden’s pardons may not prevent subpoenas from Republicans in Congress who could question individuals like Cheney and Fauci on their actions, such as Fauci’s pandemic response or Cheney’s role in the J6 committee. Legal analysts note that pardons don’t shield recipients from lying under oath, potentially leading to further legal challenges.
