As tempting as it is to prosecute all the people who abused power by going after Trump and his allies, as a practical matter, only a few, if any, will face justice in the courts.
A few, such as Fauci, should be prosecuted for lying to Congress, and any open and shut cases should be pursued. Even if Biden preemptively pardons some of the malefactors, it may be possible to haul them before Congress and force them to either spill the beans, face contempt of Congress charges, or perjury if they continue to lie.
But for the most part, all but the very worst will skate, at least legally.
But there are other means to punish those who violated the public trust–people like Mark Milley or others who are cashing in on their time at the pinnacle of power: blackball them.
The Biden administration did this with many Trump officials–they made it known that if a company that did business with the government in any way hired Trump people, there would be consequences. For the first time in memory, working at the White House or in a position of power in an administration was a black mark harming one’s employability or income.
The Trump people should do this x2. Chances are good that a figure such as Mark Milley will never face justice for what amounted to treason, but his income stream could be severely hampered by making it clear to his connected employers that doing business with Milley means not doing business with the government.
Milley, for instance, is an advisor to J.P. Morgan, which obviously values its relationship with whoever is in power. It’s the only reason they would hire Milley in the first place. Letting it be known that Milley is toxic would go a long way toward cutting off his rather cushy income stream. Chances are good that the academic gigs he has (at Georgetown and Princeton) wouldn’t disappear overnight, but then again, if students learn that he is persona non grata, they might not flock to work with him either. As for his speaking gigs? No doubt he could still get some, but if corporations are hesitant to bring him in, his speaking fees will drop from their stratospheric $100,000+ levels.
The same could apply to Justice Department lawyers who are fleeing before Trump reenters the Oval Office. Normally, coming from Justice would be a huge resume enhancer, but if the word goes out that the lawyer is toxic, that could change in a heartbeat.

Being associated with Trump during the Biden regime was a career death sentence for many, and their crime was only serving their country. Many of these Biden sycophants abused their power, lied to Congress, broke laws by leaking to the media, and went on jihads to destroy ordinary Americans for being Trump supporters.

People who abuse their power or lie to undermine the rule of law shouldn’t be rewarded for doing so. Milley conspired with the Chinese to undermine the authority of the duly elected president. In a just world he would be in Leavenworth, but we don’t live in that world.
Here is good little Marxist Matthew Graves telling American citizens they broke federal law by standing on grass outside a government building on a Wednesday afternoon and he can come get you if he wants pic.twitter.com/XZG6qVvR0S

The least we can do is make them pay a price, and a high one at that.
