Joe Biden, when he took office on President Donald Trump’s departure in 2021, said he wouldn’t use pardons like Trump.
Trump did, in fact, pardon a couple of dozen people, mostly during his last few days in office.
They included Stephen Bannon, Dinesh D’Souza and Joseph Arpaio, all longtime supporters.
The rest ranged from fraud cases to conspiracy to obstruction to bank robbery to illegal voting.

At the time, Biden was asked in an interview whether Trump’s use of “preemptive pardons” concerned him.
“It concerns me in terms of it uh, what kind of precedent it sets and how the rest of the world looks as us as a nation of laws and, uh, injustice,” he said. “Um. You’re not going to see in our administration that kind of approach to pardons.”
However, his intentions fell by the wayside in the real world, much like his repeated promises to Americans that he would not pardon his son, Hunter, of the gun charges on which he was convicted, or the tax charges to which he pleaded guilty.
He did.
And he pardoned a long list of other supporters, such as Anthony Fauci, the members of the J6 investigation commission, virtually all of his family members – James Biden, Frank Biden, Valerie Biden Owns, John Owens and Sara Biden – who may have been caught up the long list of Biden family schemes, Gen. Mark Milley.
He also commuted the life sentence of Leonard Peltier, in jail for nearly five decades for the 1970s killings of two FBI agents.
Earlier, in multiple orders, he also had pardoned or commuted the sentences of thousands of federal inmates, including several dozen convicted killers who were awaiting the death penalty.
Biden, justifying his actions, said, “I believe in the rule of law, and I am optimistic that the strength of our legal institutions will ultimately prevail over politics. But these are exceptional circumstances, and I cannot in good conscience do nothing.”
Supplicants are defined as a “person making a humble or earnest plea to someone in power or authority.”
Or, according to Steve Bannon, a former strategist for President Trump, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos.
They are the leaders of SpaceX and Twitter, Facebook’s empire, and Amazon – all billionaires a hundred times over or more.
They have been given seats at today’s presidential inauguration for Trump, to his second term in office, and they are now, in Bannon’s description, seeking favor from the new president.

“As soon as [Mark] Zuckerberg said, ‘I’ve been invited. I’m going,’ the floodgates opened up and they were all there knocking, trying to be supplicants. So I look at this and I think most people in our movement look at this as President Trump broke the oligarchs, he broke them and they surrendered.”
It was noted that, for a time, the social media companies banned Trump from being on their sites. He ended up creating the competing Truth Social at that time.
Bannon, who was targeted, and actually went behind bars for a time as part of the Democrats’ lawfare against Trump, said the billionaires’ appearance at Trump’s inauguration is an “official surrender” to Trump.
Bannon was sentenced for declining to give to ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s January 6 committee details that were covered by executive privilege, a standard that the committee refused to allow.
The PostMillennial explained Bannon’s comments came during an interview on ABC.
The report explained, “Tech leaders have shown signs of softening controversial policies in the wake of Trump’s victory. Zuckerberg recently announced that Facebook would eliminate its fact-checking services, adopting a community notes system similar to X. He also appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience, where he criticized the Biden administration and admitted that under his leadership, the federal government pressured Facebook to censor certain posts.”
Bannon also warned against trusting Zuckerberg too much. He cited the $400 million plus that Zuckerberg handed out to elections officials during the 2020 race who used it mostly for recruiting voters in Democrat districts. Bannon called that criminal.
It was one of two undue influences documented on the 2020 results, the other being the FBI’s decision to interfere in the results by describing the Biden family scandals documented in Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop computer as Russians disinformation, when in fact it all was true.
“Zuckerberg’s, you know, road to Damascus came a little late. It was after the Fifth of November,” Bannon explained. “It’s very, you know, now wants to be a bro. He Kung Fu fights. He’s going to UFC. He’s got his hair done differently. He’s, he’s cut. That doesn’t hack it with me. That guy will flip on President Trump and he’ll flip on us in the second. When it’s convenient for him. He will flip.”
President Trump, whose inauguration audience was limited in size because of the decision to move it indoors in inclement weather in Washington, met shortly after his speech with a rally of his fans, to deliver another speech.
In this one, he repeatedly said there were things he “shouldn’t” be saying.
But he did.
“You’re a younger, far more beautiful audience than what I just spoke to,” he said. “More powerful than them, look better than them.”
That, he said, we want to keep “off the record.”
He noted that during his inauguration speech he didn’t address the issue of all of those prosecuted by the government over the Jan. 6, 2021, protest of the suspect results of the 2020 election.
“It’s action, not words, that count,” he said. “You’re going to see a lot of action.
He cited the pardons issued by Joe Biden to J6 committee members, including former Rep. Liz Cheney, whose Wyoming voters fired her as soon as they could.
“Why are we helping Liz Cheney?” he said. “She’s a crying lunatic.”
He pointed out it appears the committee actually destroyed evidence in his favor during that investigation, and those actions now are under congressional review.
He also pointed out the support he’s had, with thousands of fans showing up for rallies wherever he travels. Ordinarily, he said, “200-300 people” appear for political rallies, or may thousands just before the election.
He cited the election agenda in California, where they are making it a crime to ask someone for voter ID during an election.
The law, he said, was “if you work in an election bureau, if you so much as ask for voter ID, they’ll put you in jail, you’re a criminal. … Only one reason, they want to cheat.”
He then spent time discussing the Biden administration’s agenda to have open borders, and he explained the wall material that he left behind from his first administration, which was scheduled to be sold and removed.
He credited Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and others for unraveling the scheme.
He noted that the border was a major factor in the 2016 election, his first victory, and probably is even bigger now.
That 2020 vote? “Rigged,” he said.
In fact, since Biden move into the White House, evidence appeared that revealed two major undue influences on the election: Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to hand out $400 million plus to elections officials who often used it to recruit Democrat voters, and the FBI’s decision to interfere in that vote.
The agency did that by falsely claiming that Biden family scandals revealed in a laptop abandoned by Hunter Biden were Russian disinformation, when they were accurate reports.
He also addressed the polling industry, which had predicted support for Trump, but not the landslide popular vote and Electoral College results that developed.
Trump said his supporters don’t trust “the writers of fake news” and pollsters, and so don’t answer.
He pointed out he won all seven swing states in the November election.
“Now we have to go to work and get it done … we’re going to turn our country around. And we’re doing to turn it around fast.”
