President Donald Trump stated that he would be open to pardoning members of his administration. When asked by TIME magazine if he was considering such pardons, Trump replied, "Yeah, sure, I'd do that." He also claimed that former President Joe Biden "gave pardons to everyone," suggesting a concern that individuals within his administration could face political targeting after his term concludes.
This statement comes as Trump approaches the end of his presidency, with the possibility of using presidential pardon powers for his associates. The specific individuals who might be considered for pardons were not detailed.
