President Joe Biden made a mockery of the nation’s justice system during his four years in office by turning it into an enabling system for wrongdoers and a weapon to target his political opponents. In the waning days of his administration, he has used it to insult victims of the most heinous crimes.

In an unprecedented action this month, the president announced the commutation of the sentences of 37 of the 40 federal inmates on death row. No president has ever summarily granted clemency to so many convicted murderers.
