Biden administration considers pardons for people Trump may target in revenge

President's staff look into possibility of protecting public officials named by Trump in vows to seek retribution

Joe Biden's staff are considering the possibility of him granting mass pardons to a broad range of public officials to protect them against the possibility of retribution and revenge from Donald Trump when he assumes power, it has been confirmed.

The pardons could be extended to people who believe they have committed no crimes but have been publicly named by Trump in multiple diatribes claiming that investigations against him have been driven by a political witch-hunt.
