This guy went around and pardoned everyone, says Trump in an interview with Trump-friendly Fox News.

And the funny thing, maybe the sad thing, is that he didn't pardon himself. And if you look at it, it all had to do with him.

Donald Trump states in the interview – his first since entering the White House – that he will let Congress decide whether Biden and his decision to preemptively pardon relatives and Trump critics should be investigated, reports The Hill.

According to Biden, the pardons were issued due to concerns that the affected individuals would be subject to politically motivated investigations.

The newly elected president insinuates that he wants Biden and others to go through the same legal difficulties that he himself has lived with in recent years.

It's very hard to say that they shouldn't have to go through it too, says the president.
