Censure

in the senate and against a member of the S.

Less severe than expulsion, a **censure** (sometimes referred to as *condemnation or denouncement*) does not remove a senator from office.

It is a formal statement of disapproval, however, that can have a powerful psychological effect on a member and his/her relationships in the Senate. In 1834, the Senate censured President Andrew Jackson — the first and only time the Senate censured a president. Since 1789 the Senate has censured nine of its members.
Anti-abortion movement

Roe v Wade:

**Abortion was made legal across the US after a landmark legal ruling in** 1973**, often referred to as the Roe v Wade case.**

Now, june 2022, the US Supreme Court - the nation's most senior legal body - has overturned that right.

Twenty-six conservative states are either certain or considered likely to introduce new abortion restrictions or bans.

The Supreme Court ruling on Friday that overturned the constitutional right to abortion has unleashed a frenzy of activity. Anti-abortion forces plan to push for near-total bans in every state in the U.S., while abortion rights groups have vowed to fight back in the courts and push the Biden administration to do more to protect abortion rights. The court said its ruling on Friday was needed because of what it called a half-century of bitter national controversy sparked by ***Roe v. Wade***, but its decision set off more immediate and widespread rancor and mobilizing than the original ruling — and guaranteed pitched battles and extraordinary division ahead.

Even before the US Supreme Court's latest ruling, anti-abortion campaigners had been regaining some ground.

In 1980, the court upheld a law that banned the use of federal funds for abortion except when necessary to save a woman's life.

Then in 1989, it allowed states to prohibit abortions being carried out in state clinics, or by state employees.

The biggest impact came from the top court's ruling in Planned Parenthood v Casey in 1992.

The world reacts to US abortion ruling -

“Dollars for Life” argues that, over decades, the U.S. **anti-abortion movement** laid the groundwork for an insurgent candidate like Donald Trump.

# **Ermittler prüfen Lücke in Trump-Anrufliste vom Tag des Kapitolsturms**

Sieben Stunden und 37 Minuten
So lange soll der damalige US-Präsident nicht angerufen worden sein. Dies war genau die Zeit, als das Kapitol gestürmt wurde.

Bericht von in Die Zeit vom 29. März 2022

… eine vom Weißen Haus erstellte Liste: Demnach sind am 6. Januar 2021 zwischen 11.17 Uhr und 18.54 Uhr keine Telefonate aufgeführt. Das Nationalarchiv hatte dem parlamentarischen Untersuchungsausschuss zur Kapitol-Erstürmung die Anrufliste zusammen mit einer Reihe anderer Dokumente übergeben. Die Liste zeigt, dass Trump am Morgen der Kapitol-Erstürmung mit mindestens acht Menschen telefonierte und am Abend mit elf Menschen.
Es gibt aber zahlreiche Medienberichten darüber, dass Trump am 6. Januar den ganzen Tag über Telefonate führte – auch in der Zeit, in der in der offiziellen Anrufliste die stundenlange Lücke besteht.

Impeachment trial against Pres.Trump engaged in high Crimes and Misdemeanors

House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America -

the impeachment article beginns "*Donald John Trump engaged in high Crimes and Misdemeanors by inciting violence against the Government of the United States, ...."*

the article argues, citing his false claims of election fraud in the months leading up to the riot — which he repeated on January 6 — and a phone call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in which Trump urged him to "find" votes to overturn the results there.

The impeachment article says that during an address to supporters on the day of the violence, Trump "willfully made statements that, in context, encouraged — and foreseeably resulted in — lawless action at the Capitol, such as: 'if you don't fight like hell you're not going to have a county anymore.' "

Daniel Dale fact-checks Arizona audit claims (CNN)If you listen to him long enough -- no easy chore -- Donald Trump will tell you all his secrets. Witness this line from his July 3 speech in Sarasota, Florida: "If you say it enough and keep saying it, they'll start to believe you." Trump was talking about alleged disinformation directed at him and other Republicans.

Trump has spent a lifetime -- in business and politics -- repeating exaggerations, half-truths and outright lies to make himself look good.

# Trump: These are the Papers

* bbc, 28 June, 2023: *Trump heard on tape discussing 'highly confidential, secret' documents.*

* George Conway reacts to newly obtained audio of Trump discussing classified documents. Conservative lawyer George Conway reacts to new audio obtained by CNN of the 2021 meeting in Bedminster, New Jersey, where President Donald Trump discusses holding secret documents he did not declassify. 27 June, 2023

**An audio recording in which Donald Trump appears to acknowledge keeping a classified document after leaving the White House has been obtained by US media.**

In the recording, the former president is heard riffling through papers and saying: "This is highly confidential."

It was first obtained by CNN, but the BBC's US partner CBS also has the clip.

Mr Trump has pleaded not guilty to federal charges of mishandling sensitive documents.

… which it said came from a July 2021 meeting at Mr Trump's Bedminster, New Jersey golf club between him and several people working on the memoir of his former chief of staff Mark Meadows.

Mr Trump is heard saying "**these are the papers**" and referring to a document about Iran which he calls "highly confidential".

"This was done by the military and given to me," he says. "See as president I could have declassified it. Now I can't, you know, but this is still a secret."

It appears to be the same audio recording cited by federal prosecutors in their indictment of Mr Trump.

It is not clear from the indictment, however, if the documents referenced in the recording were ever recovered by investigators.

Prosecutors allege the former president showed classified documents to people without security clearance on two occasions, including a writer and two members of staff.

Mr Trump is facing 37 counts of illegally retaining classified documents and obstructing the government's efforts to get them back.
He has repeatedly denied wrongdoing.

He has said all the documents he took with him from the White House were declassified, but the published audio recording appears to contradict this.

After the 2020 United States presidential election, Kerik supported Trump's false claims of voter fraud and attempted to help overturn the election results.

* Former New York Police Commissioner Bernie Kerik has met with investigators from special counsel Jack Smith’s team, a signal after last week’s indictment of former President Donald Trump that the probe into allegations he worked to overturn the results of the 2020 election is ongoing. Kerik attorney Timothy Parlatore told The Associated Press that his client sat down on Monday with officials from the government for about five hours for a discussion centered around the efforts of Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani to overturn Trump’s loss. “Bernard Kerik sat with Special Counsel’s Office and told them the truth,” Parlatore said. “Whether people agree with it or not, and even if some of the claims have since been debunked, the unavoidable reality is that the Giuliani team was making a good faith effort to investigate claims of fraud at the time.”

Mike Roman

**Mike Roman** is a campaign strategist who was the *director of Election Day operations* for the Trump campaign in 2020

Federal agents with court-authorized search warrants ***took phones*** last week from at least two people: Boris Epshteyn, an in-house counsel who helps coordinate Trump’s legal efforts, and **Mike Roman**, a campaign strategist who was the director of Election Day operations for the Trump campaign in 2020, people familiar with the investigation said.

The development came as the Senate Judiciary Committee announced plans to investigate allegations that the Justice Department under Trump sought to use the U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan to support him politically and to pursue his critics. The allegations are in a new book by Geoffrey S. Berman, who was U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York from 2018 to June 2020.
Carneysha Mendoza

Capitol Police Capt. **Carneysha Mendoza** testified to the violence she confronted Jan. 6. After she was called in early to duty at 1:30 p.m., she fought to keep rioters from damaging the Capitol, nearly breaking her arm and suffering burns from gas deployed in the Rotunda.

“I received chemical burns to my face that still have not healed to this day,” Captain Mendoza told senators.

After fighting the mob for four long hours, she spent the next day at the hospital with the family of Officer Brian Sicknick, who collapsed after suffering injuries during the siege and later died.

“It’s sad to see us attacked by our fellow citizens,” Captain Mendoza added.

700 Perpetrators

The 700 perpetrators of the January 6th insurrection (2021)

The FBI is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying individuals who made unlawful entry into the U.S. Capitol building and committed various other alleged criminal violations, such as destruction of property, assaulting law enforcement personnel, targeting members of the media for assault, and other unlawful conduct, on January 6, 2021, in Washington, D.C.

Many of the rioters came from President Donald Trump’s “Save America Rally” that began hours earlier at a park near the White House. Trump spoke to them for more than an hour, insisting the presidential election had been stolen. As Congress started to count Electoral College votes, thousands of supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol building, sending lawmakers scrambling for safety and prompting evacuations.

Damage to the Capitol is estimated at more than $30 million and includes broken windows and doors, graffiti and residue from tear gas, pepper sprays and fire extinguishers.

Covid-19-Stimulus

Here's a remarkable stat for you: A total of zero -- yes, *zero*! -- Republicans in the House *and* Senate voted for the **American Rescue Plan**, the $1.9 trillion stimulus plan aimed at helping the country recover from the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (Kentucky) summed up that sentiment in a tweetposted soon after the Senate approved the legislation earlier this month:

"Instead of working together to fight COVID-19, Democrats decided to exploit the crisis by jamming through unrelated liberal policies they couldn't pass honest. A colossal missed opportunity for the American people."

The American people appear to disagree.

My Pillow

**Mike\_Lindell,** der Chef von **My Pillow**, muß für seine und Trumps Dummheit 5 Mio. Dollar Wettschulden zahlen.

In September 2021, Bonner County, Idaho, announced it would perform a recount of ballots cast in the 2020 presidential election, in response to an allegation by Lindell that all 44 Idaho counties had been digitally hacked. Lindell provided a detailed list of IP addresses he asserted had been compromised. County Clerk Mike Rosedale stated that all county voting machines were fully airgapped from the Internet, also noting that seven Idaho counties do not use voting machines. Lindell alleged that a specific formula had been applied by hackers to flip votes from Trump to Biden. Rosedale said Lindell had not contacted his office before presenting his allegations. Trump carried Bonner County with 67.2% of the vote and Idaho with 63.9% in the 2020 election. At the conclusion of the Idaho recount, accuracy was determined to be within 0.1% for the election results with no indications of digital hacking. Idaho plans to bill Lindell for the cost of the recount. The Bonner audit, and audits of two other counties that do not use voting machines, affirmed the accuracy of the ballot count. Chief Deputy Secretary of State Chad Houck said Lindell would be sent a bill for the audits.

Germ.:

Lindell wurde im April 2023 von einem US-Schiedsgericht dazu verurteilt, dem Software-Experten Robert Zeidman 5 Mio. US-Dollar zu zahlen. Diese Summe hatte Lindell in einer Wette demjenigen ausgelobt, dem es gelingen sollte zu beweisen, dass Lindells vorgebliche Beweise einer Wahlmanipulation falsch seien. Dem Gericht zufolge wies Zeidman nach, dass die von Lindell vorgelegten Dokumente die Behauptungen einer Wahlmanipulation in keiner Weise belegen können.

Nach dem Urteil eines Schiedsgerichts in den USA muss der Trump-Anhänger und Kissenfabrikant Mike Lindell fünf Millionen US-Dollar an einen Software-Experten zahlen. Dieser hat laut Gericht bewiesen, dass von Lindell vorgelegte Dokumente dessen Aussagen über die Fälschung der US-Präsidentschaftswahl 2020 in keiner Weise belegen können. Darüber berichten unter anderem die Washington Post, CNN und BBC. Lindell konnte seine Behauptung nicht beweisen, er sei in Besitz mehrerer Dokumente, die angeblich zeigten, dass erst Manipulationen Chinas 2020 zum Sieg von US-Präsident Biden geführt hätten. 2021 rief der Gründer der Firma My Pillow eine Fünf-Millionen-Dollar-Wette aus: die hat der Software-Experte Robert Zeidman nun offenbar erfüllt.

QAnon

QAnon. Seit 2017 werden unter dem Namen krude und häufig antisemitische Verschwörungsthesen verbreitet, wonach etwa Donald Trump gegen eine weltweite Elite kämpft, die Kinder entführt und foltert.

Sowas ging zunächst vor allem in Troll-Kreisen herum. Es ist mittlerweile zu einer *Bewegung* geworden, die auch in Deutschland angekommen ist und auf den erwähnten Plattformen immer wieder aufgegriffen wird. Im US-Senat und Repräsentantenhaus sitzen mittlerweile Abgeordnete, die öffentlich QAnon-Verschwörungsmythen verbreiten, und am ersten Mittwochabend im Januar 21 trugen mehrere Menschen/Gruppen, die das Kapitol stürmten, Kleidung mit QAnon-Symbolen.

Aus einer absurden Verschwörungstheorie im Netz ist eine gewalttätige Bewegung auf der Straße geworden.

What will happen, if ……

The 2024 presidential race is likely to come down to a handful of key swing states. Based on recent elections, voter registration trends and other factors, it’s reasonable to assume that the 2024 winner will be decided by the voters of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin plus single Electoral College votes in Maine and Nebraska based on presidential preferences in individual House districts.
And while a lot can change over the 10 months before Election Day, in a potential rematch between President Joe Biden and his vanquished 2020 Republican foe, former President Donald Trump, the remaining 40 states and District of Columbia can reasonably be expected to fall into red or blue camps.
A wild card is whether *Trump will be ruled ineligible* for the 2024 ballot. If the courts allow it, the swing states could gain even more influence over who wins the presidency in 2024, since there are a total of 68 electoral votes in those swing states where secretaries of state are elected Democrats or were appointed by a Democratic governor and may be in a position to decide if Trump’s name is kept off ballots. *Opinion* By David Mark, 2 jan 2024, cnn

Gegen knapp 700 Personen wurde oder wird im Zusammenhang mit dem Sturm aufs Kapitol ermittelt. Mehr als 210 von ihnen wird vorgeworfen, Polizistinnen und Polizisten angegriffen und bei der Arbeit behindert zu haben. Rund zwei Dutzend Richterinnen und Richter am Bundesgericht in Washington, D. C., haben bislang mehr als 50 Urteile gesprochen. Einer Analyse des Senders CNN zufolge fielen die bisherigen Urteile erstaunlich milde aus: Weniger als die Hälfte der Verurteilten muss Haftstrafen im Gefängnis absitzen.

Die bislang härteste Strafe war jeweils dreieinhalb Jahre Gefängnis für zwei Männer. Der eine hatte einen Polizisten attackiert und verletzt. Der andere war mit Hörnern auf dem Kopf, einer Art Kriegsbemalung und einem Speer mit wehender USA-Flagge in den Plenarsaal des Senats eingedrungen und hatte Drohungen gegen den damaligen Vizepräsidenten Mike Pence ausgestoßen.

Weitere Täter wurden zu Sozialdienst oder wenigen Tagen Hausarrest verurteilt; einige mussten vierstellige Bußgelder bezahlen.

Über die angemessene Bewertung der Taten scheinen sich die Richterinnen und Richter uneinig zu sein, wie amerikanische Medien berichten. Für einige stehe der ungeheuerliche Angriff auf die Demokratie im Zentrum. Andere gehen davon aus, dass man manchen Tätern nur geringfügige Delikte nachweisen könne: Hausfriedensbruch etwa oder die Beschädigung von Gegenständen.

Parallel zur Justiz beschäftigt sich im Repräsentantenhaus ein Untersuchungsausschuss mit dem 6. Januar 2021.
Robert Scott Palmer

Knapp ein Jahr nach dem Angriff auf das US-Kapitol hat ein Gericht die bislang härteste Strafe gegen einen Unterstützer des damaligen Präsidenten Donald Trump verhängt. Bundesrichterin Tanya Chutkan verurteilte den 54-jährigen Robert Scott Palmer am Freitag in Washington zu 63 Monaten Gefängnis, wie US-Medien berichteten.

Das ist nun die längste Strafe, die bisher gegen einen der mehr als 700 Menschen verhängt wurde, die im Kontext des Angriffs angeklagt waren.

Palmer sagte der Richterin, er schäme sich sehr für sein Verhalten an diesem Tag. Zuvor hatte er in einem Brief an die Richterin Chutkan geschrieben, er habe erkannt, dass Trump und seine Verbündeten ihre Anhänger belogen hätten, indem sie »die falsche Geschichte über eine gestohlene Wahl verbreiteten« und gefordert hätten, »dass es unsere Pflicht sei, der Tyrannei die Stirn zu bieten«. (...) »Mir war nicht klar, dass sie die Tyrannen waren, die um jeden Preis an der Macht bleiben wollten«, indem sie das Chaos heraufbeschworen hätten.

Dagegen wies die Staatsanwaltschaft jedoch darauf hin, dass Palmer auch nach seinem Schuldbekenntnis Anfang Oktober sein Handeln noch verteidigt und die Polizei auf einer von ihm eingerichteten Spenden-Website als Angreifer bezeichnet hatte. »*Palmer verfolgte mit seiner Gewalttätigkeit das politische Ziel, eine demokratische Wahl und den friedlichen Übergang der Macht zu untergraben*«

Sturm auf das US-Kapitol

Der Ausdruck „Sturm auf das US-Kapitol“ bedeutet im Amerikanischen Angriff auf das US-Parlament. Denn im Kapitol residieren beide Kammern des Parlaments. Das Kapitol ist also der Oberbegriff für die sonst unterschiedenen Kammern House und Senat.

Im Deutschen liegt die Betonung mehr auf dem Gebäude, das von Trump-Anhängern nach seiner Ansprache gewaltsam erstürmt wurde.

criminal trial *US vs. Donald Trump,* august 2023

Former US President Donald Trump will be formally charged at a court hearing later for allegedly plotting to overturn his 2020 election defeat.

Mr Trump, 77, is due to appear at a federal courthouse in Washington DC on 3 July 2023 at 16:00 EDT (20:00 GMT).

It is **expected that he will** attend in person and plead **not guilty**.

On the eve of the arraignment he slammed the case as proof of the "corruption, scandal, and failure" of the US under Joe Biden's presidency.

Mr Trump already faces two other criminal cases as he campaigns for the White House next year.

In this latest indictment, Mr Trump faces four counts, including conspiracy to defraud the US, tampering with a witness and conspiracy against the rights of citizens.

A spokesman for the US Marshals Service, a federal law enforcement agency that guards courts, told Reuters news agency that Mr Trump would be fingerprinted and asked to provide basic information, such as his date of birth and Social Security ID number.

Mr Trump will appear before Magistrate Judge **Moxila Upadhyaya**, while another judge, Tanya Chutkan, will handle the criminal trial.

D. Trump pleaded not guilty to all four "election lies" charges during his appearance at a Washington DC court. The Prosecutors did not ask for Trump to be detained but he was warned of "consequences" if he were to communicate about the facts of the case.

Former Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro will not be able to argue before a jury at his contempt of Congress trial next week that the former president asserted privilege to shield him from a House January 6 committee subpoena, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.

Navarro had not met the burden to establish that Donald Trump formally granted executive privilege or testimonial immunity, US District Judge Amit P. Mehta said at a pre-trial conference.

Mehta announced the ruling after holding an evidentiary hearing Monday during which Navarro testified about alleged assertions from Trump.

Navarro’s criminal case, which was brought by the Justice Department in June 2022,goes to trial next Tuesday. Navarro has pleaded not guilty to the charges, and Mehta’s new ruling severely hamstrings the arguments the former Trump aide will be able to present in his defense.

In a lengthy explanation of his ruling delivered from the bench Wednesday, Mehta said he concluded that either Trump himself or someone authorized to assert privilege or immunity on his behalf would have had to personally invoke the privilege for it to be validly asserted.

The judge said Navarro had not put forward adequate evidence to show such an assertion when he was subpoenaed for testimony and documents by the House committee in February 2022.
“The privilege cannot be validly asserted by mere acquiescence,” Mehta said.

*Trump attorney Sidney Powell pleads guilty in Georgia election subversion case.*

By Marshall Cohen, CNN, 19 oct, 2023 - This story has been updated with additional developments.
CNN’s Morayo Ogunbayo, Nick Valencia, Hannah Rabinowitz, Zachary Cohen, Katelyn Polantz and Devan Cole contributed to this report.

As part of her guilty plea, Powell is admitting her role in the January 2021 breach of election systems in rural Coffee County, Georgia. With the help of local GOP officials, a group of Trump supporters accessed and copied information from the county’s election systems in hopes of somehow proving that the election was rigged against Trump.
Fulton County prosecutors are recommending a sentence of six years probation. Powell will also be required to testify at future trials, write an apology letter to the citizens of Georgia, pay nearly $9,000 in restitution and fines and turn over documents.

Additionally, Powell is facing massive defamation lawsuits from two voting technology companies, who sued her for falsely accusing them of rigging the 2020 election against Trump. The companies, Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic, filed the lawsuits in 2021, and the cases are still in the pre-trial discovery phase.

Seditious Conspiracy

The term **Seditious Conspiracy** means under US law, a *plot to overthrow the government or use force "to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States".*

It is a rarely used law that dates from the US Civil War. 2022 year two leaders of the Oath Keepers - one of the other major organised groups present at the Capitol riot - were convicted in the first successful prosecution for seditious conspiracy since 1995.

Seditious conspiracy is less serious than treason, which is the only crime specifically spelled out in the US Constitution and requires a high standard of proof - the testimony of at least two witnesses in open court or a confession. Treason can also be punishable by the death penalty.

Bruce Castor Jr

Former President Donald Trump has never publicly admitted that he was rejected by American voters.

But now his lawyer has. On the floor of the US Senate.

Bruce Castor Jr.'s performance at the outset of Trump's second impeachment trial will likely be remembered more for his aimless rambling than anything else. But Castor's Tuesday monologue was also noteworthy for something he said while attempting to get to a rare point.

Castor argued that the real reason Trump was impeached again is that his opponents in the House Democratic majority do not want to see him run in the 2024 election.

Tax fraud

7 dec 2022: nyt

Donald Trump'''’s family **real estate business** was convicted yesterday of 17 counts of financial crimes, including tax fraud**, in a remarkable rebuke of the former president’s company and what prosecutors described as its “culture of fraud and deception.”**

The conviction, which came after more than a day of jury deliberations in the New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan, resulted from a long-running scheme in which the Trump Organization *doled out off-the-books* luxury perks, such as fancy apartments and luxury cars, to some executives. Though the maximum penalty the company faces is $1.62 million — hardly a financial death knell — it is a highly public reckoning for the Trump Organization.

* Translation:

The Ways and Means Committee – versuchte ab 2019, an frühere Steuererklärungen Trumps zu kommen. Die Demokraten wollten unter anderem prüfen, ob sich aus den Unterlagen Interessenkonflikte des Immobilienunternehmers ergeben, also ob er sein Amt als Präsident genutzt hat, um sich oder seinen Firmen geschäftliche Vorteile zu verschaffen. Ebenso sollte der Frage nachgegangen werden, ob Trump sich fragwürdiger und womöglich illegaler Methoden bedient hat, um Steuern zu sparen. Trump wehrte sich dagegen und erklärte, der Ausschuss verfolge rein politische Ziele und wolle ihm schaden. Trump hat seine Bewerbung um die Kandidatur für die Republikaner bei der nächsten Präsidentschaftswahl angekündigt.

Der Oberste Gerichtshof machte den Weg zur Veröffentlichung der Dokumente dennoch im November frei. Die Bundessteuerbehörde IRS übergab in der Folge die Unterlagen an den Ausschuss, der sich nun für die Veröffentlichung ausgesprochen hat.

T heimlich geimpft

Dass es mit seiner Immunität womöglich doch nicht so weit her sein könnte, schien Trump bereits Mitte Dezember klarzuwerden. Damals sagte die ehemalige Sprecherin des Weißen Hauses, Kayleigh McEnany, Trump sei offen für eine Impfung und wolle die Amerikaner auch dazu ermuntern. Pläne für eine Impfung Trumps gebe es aber nicht, sagte McEnany.

Am Sonntag rief Trump bei seinem ersten öffentlichen Auftritt seit seinem Abgang aus dem Weißen Haus alle US-Bürger auf, sich impfen zu lassen.

Trump pardoned them

wash Post 12/2023

* ***Trump pardoned them. Now they’re helping him return to power.***

By Beth Reinhard, Manuel Roig-Franzia and Clara Ence Morse

(germ: Trump hat sie begnadigt. Jetzt helfen sie ihm, an die Macht zurückzukehren.)
* Link of the article behind a Wash.Post-paywall.

Trump granted during his four-year tenure in the White House 238 clemency orders, pardoning an array of individuals that included figures like former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, attorney I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, and former NYPD commissioner Bernard Kerik.
Many of Trump's pardons and commutations were highly controversial, as some observers criticized the then-president for what they believed was his focus on those who were convicted of white-collar offenses and individuals who possessed ties to influential donors.

In an analysis of Trump's clemency orders, The Washington Post found that dozens of individuals who received commutations or pardons from the then-president are now some of the most vocal backers of his 2024 White House bid, while others have either donated to his campaign or have repeated his false claims about the 2020 race that he lost to now-President Joe Biden.
