California Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff is considering rejecting a pardon issued by former President Joe Biden to those involved in the January 6 Congressional investigation. Schiff expressed concerns about potential “blowback” from accepting the pardon, as he had previously argued that accepting a pardon implies guilt. During an NBC interview, Schiff mentioned that while he didn’t initially want a pardon, the situation is unprecedented, and the committee is assessing their options. Biden’s preemptive pardons were aimed at protecting allies from possible retaliation by President-elect Donald Trump. However, legal experts noted that the pardons do not prevent recipients, including Liz Cheney and Dr. Anthony Fauci, from testifying under oath if subpoenaed. Attorney Jesse Binnall highlighted that the pardons could be advantageous for those seeking prosecution, as they do not protect against perjury. The situation remains complex, with ongoing discussions about the implications of accepting or rejecting the pardons.
