On Inauguration Day, Donald Trump pledged to grant pardons to numerous individuals convicted related to the January 6 Capitol riot, describing them as "political prisoners." During a celebration, he announced plans to sign on pardons, emphasizing action over words. Out of approximately 1,583 defendants charged, over 1,009 had already pleaded guilty. Despite some Republican opposition, Trump reaffirmed his commitment to pardon most riot participants, excluding those deemed "evil and bad," while addressing his supporters who felt ignored during his official inauguration speech.
Tonight, I'm going to be signing on the J6 hostages pardons to get them out. Then as soon as I leave, I'll be signing pardons for a lot of people.
I was going to talk about the J6 hostages, but you'll be happy because, you know, it is action, not words that count. And you're going to be happy, because you're going to see a lot of action on the J6 hostages.
