In one of his last uses of presidential power, outgoing President Joe Biden has granted pardons to General Mark Milley and Anthony Fauci to prevent any investigation.

The pardon protects the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Defence, General Milley; the former Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Dr. Fauci and members and staff of the Select Committee that investigated the January 6th attack on the Capitol in 2021 from prosecution from the incoming Donald Trump’s presidency.
Biden said these public servants served the nation with honour and distinction and did not deserve to be the targets of unjustified and politically motivated prosecutions.
