Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) expressed his disapproval of President Donald Trump’s pardons during an appearance on CNN’s *State of the Union* on Sunday, suggesting it may be time for Congress to review presidential pardon powers. Host Dana Bash raised the issue, stating, “President Trump pardoned or commuted hundreds of people convicted of assaulting police officers during the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. It put many lives at risk, including yours.” She then asked, “Are you okay with that?” Graham responded firmly, “No. I’ve always said that pardoning people who attack police officers sends the wrong message to the public. It undermines efforts to protect law enforcement. But the president does have that power.” He went on to criticize pardons by other presidents as well, referencing President Joe Biden’s pardon of an individual convicted of shooting two FBI agents in South Dakota, a decision that reportedly upset the FBI. “Biden pardoned half his family when he said he wouldn’t,” Graham added, referencing his concerns about perceived misuse of the pardon authority on both sides of the aisle. President Trump at least stated his intentions upfront, but I don’t like it—not from Trump, not from Biden. I think the public shares this sentiment,” Graham continued. He concluded by suggesting that if this trend persists, Congress might need to step in. “If this becomes the norm, there could be an effort to rein in the president’s pardon power as an institution.”
