President-elect Trump on NBC Vows to "Act Very Quickly" to Pardon Jan. 6 Defendants on First Day
Dec 8, 2024, 03:07 PM
President-elect Donald Trump announced in an interview with NBC's "Meet the Press" that he plans to act "very quickly" on his first day in office to "most likely" pardon individuals convicted for their roles in the January 6th, 2021 Capitol riot. Trump stated that "they've been in there for years" and are in "a filthy, disgusting place that shouldn't even be allowed to be open." He described the incarcerated individuals as "living in hell" and indicated he would review individual cases. Trump also asserted that members of the January 6th committee "should be jailed," but he would not seek a special prosecutor for President Biden.
