Adam Kinzinger embraces Trump voiding Biden’s pardons: ‘Bring it on, dude!’

Published March 17, 2025 2:17pm ET



Former Republican Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger appeared glad to catch President Donald Trump‘s attention again after he said the Jan. 6 committee’s work is “the thing that embarrasses” the president the most.

Trump announced Sunday that former President Joe Biden‘s controversial pardons, issued toward the end of his term, are “void” due to the former president’s use of an “Autopen,” as Biden didn’t sign or know “anything” about these pardons. Kinzinger and other members of the select committee on the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot were among those granted preemptive pardons from Biden.
