‘Not a Fan’: Democrat Amy Klobuchar Tells Jen Psaki She Doesn’t Like What’s Happening With Biden Pardons

Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) revealed that she does not want President Joe Biden to issue pre-emptive pardon before Donald Trump enters the White House — and didn’t like his pardon of Hunter Biden, either.

Over the last week, reports have circulated that the president is considering pardoning critics of Trump, including Senator-elect Adam Schiff (D-CA) and retired NIH Director Dr. Anthony Fauci.

During a Sunday morning interview with former Joe Biden press secretary and current MSNBC anchor Jen Psaki, Klobuchar revealed she does not think Biden should issue those pardons, and that Schiff doesn’t either.

She also said she was not happy about the president pardoning his son.

I am not a fan of these. I didn’t like the pardon of the president’s son. I didn’t think that that was prudent. But I also am very concerned about this idea of the preemptive pardons. I am, of everyone, very concerned about what Trump is going to do with this Justice Department.

I actually spoke to Adam Schiff this weekend about this in anticipation that you might ask…he has publicly said that he does not want a preemptive pardon, that he believes that this is a nation of laws and that there are judges that make decisions all the time, including during the last Trump administration, including Republican appointees from many different administrations, who did the right thing in many cases under the law.

And so this is you know, the president has this power. I would prefer that we actually Trump abused this pardon power. I think that we should have pardon reform. It is a right of these presidents.

But you could have a committee set up. You could have suggestions from a board. You could do all kinds of things. That’s what I’d like to see.
