Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) said on Monday he’s unsure whether “the extent of the pardons” granted by former President Biden was “necessary.” Murphy told reporters that he has “real sympathy for the position that Trump has put Biden and his and his family [in].” “There are real unique threats that are presented to the Biden family by Trump’s obsession with targeting his political opponents.” But he also said he thinks “it’s probably time for us to take a look at the way the pardon system is being used.” Murphy delivered an impassioned response to pivotal developments surrounding today's inauguration.
