TechFlow News — On March 17, according to Jinshi Data, former U.S. President Donald Trump stated that former President Biden's last-minute pardons of members of Congress involved in the investigation of the "January 6 insurrection" are "null, void, and without further force or effect." This suggests Trump may be attempting to overturn over a century of presidential pardon laws and practices.
It is understood that the pardon power has long been considered one of the most absolute powers held by the U.S. president, with courts consistently reluctant to impose any restrictions on how it is exercised. Trump's remarks could open the possibility that the Department of Justice might attempt to prosecute some of the president's key political opponents.
