President Trump generated intrigue Wednesday by noting that former President Joe Biden didn’t pardon himself as he left office, despite pardoning his siblings and their spouses to head off

Senator Deb Fischer, a Nebraska Republican and member of the Inaugural Ceremonies Committee, was giving a speech before Trump was sworn into office when Biden, who was sitting next to the podium facing the crowd of attendees in the Capitol rotunda, was caught on video with his eyes closed.

Joe Biden told Donald Trump "may God bless you and guide you" in a letter he left in the Resolute Desk of the White House before his exit.
