    I guess because the outcomes are unaffected.

    Either they did the crime, and the pardon is doing what it was designed to do. Or they didn’t and it’s not having any effect.

    In this case, I imagine the pardons are “witch-hunt for revenge” immunity, given what’s possibly coming down the pipe.

      oh I am 100% sure, but on the other hand the ‘news’ could claim ‘look Fiuci was guilty of making covid to start, they had to pardon him’

        That’s true.

        But they could also do that without evidence sadly. The really sad part is that people would believe them either way
