During his second term in office, Donald Trump has granted executive clemency (including pardons and commutations) to more than 1,700 individuals convicted of federal criminal offenses.
Notable components of these clemency actions include:
January 6 Defendants: The majority of these grants (over 1,500) involved individuals charged or convicted in connection with the January 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol attack.
Other Cases: The total also includes high-profile individual pardons and commutations, such as Ross Ulbricht (founder of Silk Road) and various others processed outside the standard Department of Justice review system.
