He has pardoned the January 6th rioters and many others. It seems like Trump pardons are basically for sale to rich donors.
In addition to 1500+ pardoned Jan 6ers, 34 of whom have been charged with new crimes, here’s a list of all of the fraudsters and criminals 47 has pardoned. This should be discussed a lot more, hold them all accountable #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue http://www.gov.ca.gov/2026/01/21/t…

SCOOP: Trump quietly pardoned several people this week, including:▶️A Venezuelan-Italian banker implicated in a bribery scheme whose daughter donated $3.5M to Trump's PAC.▶️A California woman who was freed from prison by a Trump commutation in 2021 & was then convicted in an unrelated case in 2024.

There are only two offenses the Constitution goes out of its way to specifically say merit impeachment, and this is one of them.

The blatant selling of pardons is perhaps the clearest instance of criminal conduct authorized by SCOTUS. Pardons are a quintessential "official act." So, even when Trump takes a bribe to issue one, he is presumably above the criminal law.

http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news…85% of the people granted pardons or clemency this year by Trump are white, and Jan. 6 defendants made up 90% of those who benefited, according to a new report compiled by Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., a vocal advocate for criminal justice reform.
