LIVE: Protest in Bakersfield, California, over recent ICE operations that have taken place

Mr. Biden: In four years, we've created 16.6 million new jobs. The most of any single presidential term in history. There wasn't a month, not a single month, when the economy lost jobs. Another record for any presidency. In fact, the last month Americans lost jobs, was the month before I came to office.

[due to pandemic lockdowns and forced business closures]

Mr. Biden: How and why did we make such progress? We did it by fundamentally changing the economic policy of this country.

[all of your failed economic policies will be reversed]

Mr. Biden: There's so much more from our playbook, but the bottom line is, we've come a long way from the crisis we've inherited.

Reporter: Have you ruled out a pardon for yourself, or any other additional members of the family?

Mr. Biden: For myself?

Reporter: Yes, sir.

Mr. Biden: What would I pardon myself for?

Reporter: That's what I'm asking.

Mr. Biden: I have no contemplation of pardoning myself for anything. I didn't do anything wrong.

[admission that pardons he gives out are for those who did commit a crime?]

Mr. Biden: I know that there are a significant number of democrats and republicans on The Hill who think we should continue to support Ukraine. It is my hope and expectation they'll speak up and not agree to president; if, if, if Trump decides to cut off funding for Ukraine.

Reporter: Can you just give us a sense of what other pardons and commutations you're considering in your last ten days?

Mr. Biden: The answer is no, because; two things. One is that it depends on some of the language and expectations that Trump broadcast in the last couple days here as to what he's gonna do. The idea that he would punish people for not adhering to what he thinks should be policy as it related to his well–being is outrageous.
