Charlamagne Tha God Criticizes Biden's Consideration of Preemptive Pardons

The radio host argues such pardons for Trump critics could imply guilt and urges Biden to focus on nonviolent offenders instead.

  • Charlamagne Tha God stated that President Biden issuing preemptive pardons to political figures targeted by President-elect Trump would make them appear guilty.
  • The discussion comes as Biden reportedly considers pardoning individuals like Hillary Clinton, Adam Schiff, and Liz Cheney, who may face scrutiny under the incoming administration.
  • Charlamagne urged Biden to prioritize pardons for nonviolent drug offenders and individuals with federal marijuana convictions, as well as former Baltimore State Attorney Marilyn Mosby.
  • Biden recently commuted the sentences of 1,500 individuals and granted 39 pardons for nonviolent crimes, the largest single-day clemency action in modern history.
  • Critics, including Charlamagne, argue that preemptive pardons could set a concerning precedent and question the necessity of such measures without evidence of wrongdoing.
