“Donald Trump on Monday issued ‘full, complete and unconditional’ presidential pardons for about 1,500 people who were involved in the January 6 attack on Congress, including some convicted of violent acts, making good on his promise to act in such cases on day one of his second term. … Trump also directed the justice department to dismiss all pending indictments against people related to January 6.” [editor’s note: He did not, however, commute Ross Ulbricht’s sentence as he promised to do on “day one” – TLK] (01/20/25)
