Chris Christie Blames Biden for Jan 6 Pardons, "All Rules Are Off"
Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, who ran for the GOP presidential nomination against Donald Trump twice, was one of the keynote speakers at the Principles First Summit in Washington, DC this weekend, where conservative Anti-Trumpers including former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson and former RNC Chairman Michael Steele, condemned the new Trump administration and its new “rule of law.”
Christie, a former prosecutor and US Attorney for New Jersey, was asked to talk about Trump’s blanket pardoning of the convicted rioters who attacked the Capitol building on January 6, 2021, after Trump said there would be a systemic review to see if some of the people were overcharged.
Christie replied: “Knowing him, the January 6 pardons happened the way they did because of Biden’s pardons of his family. I think that Trump saw that and went, [expletive]. All rules are off.”
Note: After pardoning his son Hunter Biden in December (after pledging that he wouldn’t), President Biden also issued pardons for his brother James and his wife, Sara; his sister, Valerie, and her husband, John Owens; and his brother Francis, on the morning of Trump’s second inauguration.
When Christie added, “If we’re gonna be credible about our criticism of Trump we have to also be willing to criticize other outrageous actions by other political leaders in this country,” he received a round of applause.
