<p>People associated with the January 6 Committee who did not receive preemptive pardons from former President Joe Biden may be contacted to answer some questions, a Department of Justice (DOJ) official suggested on Sunday.</p>
<p>Ed Martin, the Trump administration&#8217;s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ed-martin-planned-to-clean-up-dc-now-hes-setting-his-sights-on-the-whole-country" target="_blank" rel="noopener">weaponization czar</a> working under the supervision of Attorney General Pam Bondi, briefly spoke about probing the now-defunct panel at the end of an <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6377014112112" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview on Fox News</a>.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">BARTIROMO: What about the January 6 committee? Did they destroy evidence? Is there criminality there?</p>
<p>ED MARTIN: Of course. Trust me, a lot of people did not get a pardon that were involved in the select committee, and they ought to be keeping an eye on their mailbox. <a href="https://t.co/xRelaTtlyp">pic.twitter.com/xRelaTtlyp</a></p>
<p>— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) <a href="https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1957101509935525999?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 17, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;Real quick, what about the January 6 Committee? Did they destroy evidence? Is there criminality there?&#8221; asked &#8220;Sunday Morning Futures&#8221; anchor Maria Bartiromo.</p>
<p>&#8220;Of course. We&#8217;re all in that, too,&#8221; Martin replied. &#8220;And, trust me, a lot of &#8230; people did not get a pardon that were involved in the select committee, and they ought to be keeping an eye on their mailbox, because there&#8217;s a lot to be asked about.&#8221;</p>
<p>Biden announced during the final hours of his presidency in January that he <a href="https://bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2025/01/20/statement-from-president-joe-biden-15/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pardoned</a> the lawmakers and staffers who served on the January 6 Committee, along with D.C. and U.S. Capitol police officers who testified before the Democrat-led panel, among others.</p>

<p>&#8220;Baseless and politically motivated investigations wreak havoc on the lives, safety, and financial security of targeted individuals and their families,&#8221; Biden said in a statement at the time. &#8220;Even when individuals have done nothing wrong — and in fact have done the right thing — and will ultimately be exonerated, the mere fact of being investigated or prosecuted can irreparably damage reputations and finances.&#8221;</p>
<p>As the Trump administration is looking into whether aides improperly used autopen to sign off on executive actions in an effort to conceal Biden&#8217;s health issues, Bartiromo asked Martin if the pardons were legitimate.</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, yes, I&#8217;m the pardon attorney, so I have — I&#8217;m in that, too,&#8221; Martin said, referring to his other job at DOJ. &#8220;I can tell you we&#8217;re investigating how the pardons were granted. It was not like anything in the history of America what Joe Biden — not Joe Biden, his staffers did, not just with the autopen, but with faking him out on the memos.&#8221;</p>
<p>He continued, &#8220;More to come, Maria. I&#8217;m telling you, Pam Bondi has let us loose, and when this comes out, it&#8217;ll take the whole of these people&#8217;s hoaxes down. And we&#8217;re doing it bit by bit. And it&#8217;s fantastic. It&#8217;s a great privilege.&#8221;</p>
