There were some very questionable pardons - where is that investigation?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_by_Donald_Trump

the vast majority were to persons to whom Trump had a personal or political connection, or persons for whom executive clemency served a political goal.[2][3][5] A significant number had been convicted of fraud or public corruption.[6] The New York Times reported that during the closing days of the Trump presidency, individuals with access to the administration, such as former administration officials, were soliciting fees to lobby for presidential pardons

Huh, he posthumously pardoned Susan B Anthony? I’ll give Trump credit for that.
