This was certainly necessary rather than leaving his fate to the incoming administration which threatens to be populated by vengeful criminals.

While TFG has pardoned criminals who are "loyal" to him.

Not from Justice, but from a vindictive leader of the gop who will soon be president because the price of eggs was too high. Unless there are republicans in the House and Senate in substantial numbers who place country above party the reasons for President Biden’s pardon will become crystal clear. Trump cares not of country but of self. And will act accordingly.

President Biden took the one and only correct action. And we should be grateful.

TFG pardons criminals and appoints them to positions in his administration.

he wired up a hotel room (i wonder if it was a trump hotel?) occupied by a business partner and then hired a prostitute to star in the video.
