Trump Pardons 1,500 Violent Felons From January 6 Capitol Attack, Supported by House Republicans
Jan 22, 2025, 05:32 PM
On his first day in office, President Donald Trump issued pardons for 1,500 violent felons who had stormed the Capitol and attacked police officers on January 6, 2021. These actions have been met with strong criticism from several members of Congress, who argue that the pardons show disrespect for law enforcement and compromise public safety. House Republicans have been accused of supporting these pardons, aligning themselves with Trump rather than standing up for law enforcement. The criticism highlights concerns over the safety of communities and the integrity of law and order, with some representatives noting that the released individuals had violently assaulted officers, resulting in the deaths of five officers.
