‘This Is Just Egregious’: Megyn Kelly Slams Biden’s Last-Minute Pardons, But Those Pardoned Can Still Face Prosecution

SiriusXM’s Megyn Kelly called out former President Joe Biden’s last-minute pardons Monday on her show, outlining how those pardoned could still face prosecution at the state level.

On Monday, Biden issued a series of pardons throughout the day, with some announced just minutes before President Donald Trump was sworn into office. On “The Megyn Kelly Show,” Kelly discussed who the pardons extended to, highlighting how Dr. Anthony Fauci’s pardon dated back to 2014.

“Let’s go to the pardons because this is just egregious. Everybody under the sun, I mean, the J6 committee members, his entire family, right? Mark Milley and Dr. Fauci. By the way, the pardons go back, especially Fauci, go back to 2014,” Kelly said. “It starts in 2014 forward. What the hell was he doing in 2014? It’s because he funded gain of function research. It’s because he was behind the problem that caused the damn pandemic.”

“But there’s a question about whether it’s valid if they don’t accept.  I mean, there’s a legal debate on whether you must say I accept. I think most lawyers say, yeah, you have to say I accept it in order for it to be valid for you,” Kelly added. “So the Fauci one is the one that has me most ticked off. Because I really do think Fauci lied repeatedly to Congress. Rand Paul certainly thinks that, and I think was preparing to go after him.”

In his statement regarding the pardons for individuals like Fauci, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley and nine members of the Jan. 6 Select Committee, Biden said that they did not deserve to be “targets of unjustified and politically motivated prosecutions.”

Kelly went on to say that despite never being able to “find the smoking gun evidence” that Fauci was “was behind the COVID virus.” She said he worked on funded gain of function research
