Well, at least now Dr. Tony Fauci is pardoned for all the crimes that he committed in keeping Americans informed during the pandemic and undermining American security on his work with PEPFAR:
The decision comes after Donald Trump warned of an enemies list filled with those who have crossed him politically or sought to hold him accountable for his attempt to overturn his 2020 election loss and his role in the storming of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Biden also pardoned retired Gen. Mark Milley and members of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6 attack. Trump has selected Cabinet nominees who backed his election lies and who have pledged to punish those involved in efforts to investigate him.

Say what you will about the guy, but he is a real economics genius.
Why didn’t anyone think of this before?
Outgoing President concludes that the United States is no longer governed by the rule of law.
It’s interesting that the first place they are planning to hit is not in Texas or Florida where they would have plenty of cooperation from the locals but in Chicago, where they are getting pushback. It’s almost like it’s not really about deporting people but just stirring up shit and hoping for some trouble they will have to “handle”.
I expect they chose Chicago because DJT wants to stick it to Gov. Pritzker and they are hoping there will be a chance of violence from protesters. The Orange One would love a chance to invoke the Insurrection Act in a sanctuary city and put it under martial law.
Not to mention, the Obamas came out of Chicago.
Most Trump supporters are lower income whites. I am afraid they will continue to support Trump, even if their incomes decline further during his administration.
Chicago has been the go-to example of “democrat city - BAD” for decades now. It’s why the crime rate of Chicago is always cited when there are significantly worse cities from a crime standpoint. Magnify the problems and downplay the successes of a city that is tightly coupled conceptually with Democrats.
