Trump Urged to Issue Blanket Pardon for J6ers on First Day

Nov 23, 2024, 03:34 AM

Former President Donald Trump has the authority to issue pardons for individuals involved in the January 6 Capitol riot, as confirmed by various sources. There is a growing call among some supporters for Trump to use this power to grant a blanket pardon to all 'J6ers' on his first day back in office if re-elected. Advocates argue that every January 6th defendant was subject to political persecution, faced rigged trials, and had their civil rights violated by the government.
