Mike Honcho 5,269 Posted January 21 Quote Trump ends all January 6 cases with pardons, commutations and dismissals From CNN’s Marshall Cohen In one fell swoop, President Donald Trump ended all of the nearly 1,600 cases stemming from the January 6 US Capitol attack. He signed a proclamation Monday pardoning nearly all 1,270 people convicted in the January 6 attack, directing the Justice Department to drop about 300 pending cases, and ordering the release of a small group of 14 other defendants who were charged in the most serious sedition cases. (Trump misspoke earlier tonight when he said the pardon would cover about 1,500 people.) These actions go farther than many — including Trump’s own advisers and GOP allies — were expecting. Vice President JD Vance and House Speaker Mike Johnson said in recent days that Trump should only pardon nonviolent offenders. But the proclamation he signed, granting a “full, complete and unconditional pardon,” covers roughly 600 people with felony convictions for assaulting police officers or impeding police during a riot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike Honcho 5,269 Posted January 21 Quote Pardons for January 6 rioters: Trump on Monday pardoned US Capitol rioters, saying the pardon would cover more than 1,500 people, which would appear to cover nearly everyone charged since the attack on January 6, 2021. He also commuted the sentences of Oath Keepers and Proud Boys who were convicted of seditious conspiracy. And people think this is the adults being in charge. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real timschochet 6,752 Posted January 21 Just now, supermike80 said: Yup. Bof sidez No. It’s not equal. Biden deserves major criticism for his pardons. Trump deserves major criticism for some of his pardons. Every President does. But pardoning the Jan 6 rioters who committed violence (not the nonviolent ones), who attacked police- that’s unique. That’s beyond the pale, worse than any other Presidential Pardons in history. It’s unacceptable, there is no justifiable whataboutism, no reasonable excuse or explanation that can be offered. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
