President Biden previously pledged that he would not issue preemptive pardons before leaving office, telling CNN that he would take a "totally different approach" to the justice system compared to then-President Trump.

In December 2020, CNN anchor Jake Tapper asked Biden if he was concerned about rumors that Trump would dole out a wave of preemptive pardons for some of his closest confidantes.

"Well, it concerns me in terms of what kind of precedent it sets in how the rest of the world looks at us as a nation of laws and justice," he said.

CNN probably knew it was a falsehood — and willingly participated in the fraud.

Oh, he probably still doesn’t know he did issue them... Do you really think he had the mental faculties to request them, nope, they were stuck in front of him my some aide and he was told to sign.

Lies are useful when your master is satan, the father of lies.

I hear that Biden gave a preemptive pardon to a bunch of his relatives just before he left the White House.

But did Biden pardon himself? If it comes to prosecuting Biden, wouldn’t anyone he pardoned be forced to testify against him now?

I doubt he will get much attention from the left anymore. Losing doesn’t pay.and people with dementia are ignored.

He probably said he would never molest his daughter, rape a congressional aide, or grope little girls too. But here we are.

Nothing that came out of Joe Biden’s mouth was the truth.

It's okay - he gave "his word as a Biden". Buh bye (flush).

He probably said he would never molest his daughter, rape a congressional aide, or grope little girls too. But here we are.

Did anyone else notice how a narrator was talking about how much the President really loves children (as they were talking about Trump) - and the cameras happened to be on Biden at the time? Long national nightmare indeed.
