Stewart Rhodes, leader of the Oath Keepers, has regained the freedom to enter Washington, D.C., after a federal judge rescinded an order that previously barred him from the city. This decision was influenced by President Trump's clemency, which Rhodes received on Inauguration Day for his role on January 6, 2021. The U.S. attorney, Ed Martin, argued against the travel order, highlighting the unconditional nature of Trump's clemency, which affected over 1,600 individuals charged in connection with the Capitol attack. This case marks unusual involvement by the U.S. attorney in a high-profile legal matter related to a significant event in U.S. history.
Following President Trump's clemency on Inauguration Day, Stewart Rhodes, leader of the Oath Keepers, can now freely enter Washington after a judge rescinds his previous travel restrictions.
The judge acknowledged that Trump's clemency order was unconditional, meaning he lacked the authority to impose further restrictions on Rhodes's movements.
