In his role as the 47th [president of the United States](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_the_United_States) (January 20, 2025 – present), [Donald Trump](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump) granted [executive clemency](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_pardons_in_the_United_States) to more than 1,700 individuals as of June 11, 2026, all of whom were charged or convicted of [federal criminal offenses](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_crime_in_the_United_States).[[1]](#cite_note-:2-1)[[2]](#cite_note-dojpardonlist-2) This included a blanket pardon of [some 1,500 individuals](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cases_of_the_January_6_United_States_Capitol_attack) associated with the [January 6 United States Capitol attack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_6_United_States_Capitol_attack). Many of Trump's pardons have gone to people who committed fraud against the government or investors.[[3]](#cite_note-3) In many cases, Trump also removed the requirement that these individuals pay restitution and fines, costing their victims an estimated $1.3 billion.[[4]](#cite_note-4)[[5]](#cite_note-:1-5) At least three individuals who had been convicted in white-collar fraud cases and who were granted executive clemency also had their pending [United States Securities and Exchange Commission](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Securities_and_Exchange_Commission) civil enforcement actions dropped as a result.[[6]](#cite_note-6) Unique among modern U.S. presidents, Trump also issued pardons to corporations, erasing $200 million in financial penalties lodged against those companies.[[7]](#cite_note-bloomberg_07212026-7)
A June 2026 Reuters review of clemency decisions by the second Trump administration found that 96% of clemency grants failed to meet longstanding Department of Justice guidelines for such requests; a large number of pardons were granted to people who used Trump allies to lobby for their cause; and there was evidence of donations to Trump or payments to Trump allies to help achieve the clemency.[[1]](#cite_note-:2-1) The nature of the clemency process under the second Trump administration has been controversial among legal experts, ethics experts, and the victims of the pardoned offenders.[[1]](#cite_note-:2-1)
Background
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=1)]
The U.S. president's power of [clemency](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_pardons_in_the_United_States) arises from [Article II](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_Two_of_the_United_States_Constitution) of the [United States Constitution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Constitution). Clemency "may take several forms, including [pardon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pardon#Pardons_and_clemency_in_the_United_States), [commutation of sentence](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutation_of_sentence), remission of fine or restitution, and reprieve",[[8]](#cite_note-USDOJ-8) with the two most commonly used forms being a pardon or commutation. A pardon is an official forgiveness for an acknowledged crime. Once a pardon is issued, all further punishment for the crime is waived.[[9]](#cite_note-justice.gov1-9) The president can only grant pardons for federal offenses.[[10]](#cite_note-auto-10) When the president commutes a sentence, it reduces the severity of a sentence without voiding the conviction itself; for example, a commutation may reduce or eliminate a prison term, while leaving other punishments intact.[[8]](#cite_note-USDOJ-8) The power of clemency is "one of the most unlimited powers bestowed on the president by the Constitution."[[11]](#cite_note-WaPo_Gearan_20200222-11)
Trump's second-term use of executive clemency
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=2)]
Role of the Office of the Pardon Attorney
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=3)]
Trump frequently bypassed the [Office of the Pardon Attorney](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_the_Pardon_Attorney), and on March 7, 2025, fired its leader, Department of Justice career attorney Liz Oyer, and installed political loyalist [Ed Martin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Martin_(Missouri_politician)) in the role.[[12]](#cite_note-12)[[13]](#cite_note-13) Ed Martin described the rationale for granting pardons as "No MAGA left behind".[[14]](#cite_note-14) In April 2025, Oyer testified to the Senate and accused the Justice Department of "ongoing corruption" and that "the leadership of the Department of Justice appears to value political loyalty above the fair and responsible administration of justice".[[15]](#cite_note-15). On February 2, 2026, it was reported that Martin was considering leaving the Justice Department following conflicts with [Todd Blanche](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todd_Blanche), the Deputy Attorney General.[[16]](#cite_note-16)
Creation of 'Pardon Czar' position
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=4)]
On February 20, 2025, Trump announced the creation of a new position to recommend executive clemency candidates, and named [Alice Marie Johnson](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_Marie_Johnson) to the role. Johnson, who had been sentenced to life imprisonment without parole for nonviolent drug offenses, received a sentence commutation and later a full pardon in Trump's first term, after [Kim Kardashian](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Kardashian) intervened on her behalf.[[17]](#cite_note-17)
Role of lobbyists
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=5)]
In addition to pursuing pardons through the Office of Pardon Attorney, the Pardon Czar, and the White House Counsel's Office, some wealthy pardon-seekers have hired politically-connected lobbyists to present their cases directly to Trump, with many echoing claims of political prosecution to win Trump's support.[[18]](#cite_note-18)[[19]](#cite_note-19)[[20]](#cite_note-20) Reflecting concerns about the optics of the pardon process, there have been sporadic attempts by White House staffers to limit access to Trump by advocates for pardon-seekers.[[21]](#cite_note-21)
Lobbyists have told the Wall Street Journal and other news outlets that fees of $1M are standard. Some would-be pardon recipients have offered success fees of $6M for a successful application.[[22]](#cite_note-22)[[23]](#cite_note-:0-23)[[24]](#cite_note-24) NBC News reported that former U.S. Attorney [Brett Tolman](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brett_Tolman) and Washington attorney Adam Katz have played key roles in securing clemency for their clients.[[23]](#cite_note-:0-23) Similarly, lobbyist Ches McDowell and Checkpoint Government Systems received $1.3M for obtaining clemency for [Changpeng Zhao](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Changpeng_Zhao).[[25]](#cite_note-marcus_new_yorker-25) Lobbyists [Jack Burkman](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Burkman) and [Jacob Wohl](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Wohl) accepted $300,000 to lobby for a pardon for fugitive crypto figure [Andean Medjedovic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andean_Medjedovic)[[26]](#cite_note-26) and $960,000 to lobby for a federal pardon on behalf of Joseph Schwartz, convicted for nursing home fraud in April 2025. It was later reported that Schwartz was unhappy with their efforts and hired politically-connected attorney and lobbyist Josh Nass to pursue clemency[[27]](#cite_note-27). Schwartz was granted clemency on November 14, 2025.[[28]](#cite_note-wapoburkmanwohl-28)[[29]](#cite_note-notus-29) Nass was later charged with extortion in an apparent connection to the Schwartz pardon; federal prosecutors alleged that Nass hired a convicted racketeer to assault or kidnap Schwartz's son in order to get $500,000 Nass said Schwartz owed him for his pardon work.[[30]](#cite_note-30)[[31]](#cite_note-31) On July 13, 2026, NOTUS reported that Burkman and Wohl were facing legal action from a former client [Boosie Badazz](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boosie_Badazz), who alleged that the two took $600,000 to lobby for a promised pardon that never materialized. The lobbying contract specified a $300,000 refund if the effort failed, but Burkman has said the two are "effectively bankrupt."[[32]](#cite_note-32)
Legal boundaries of the pardons
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=6)]
The scope of the Trump pardons became a contentious legal issue. Several people who were under investigation in the January 6 Capitol assault were charged in separate cases that came about as a result of those investigations. These separate cases included gun charges, possession of child pornography, and threatening FBI agents.[[33]](#cite_note-33)
With the mass pardon of the January 6 Capitol assault participants, lawyers for some of those defendants argued that the mass pardons applied to those charges as well[[34]](#cite_note-34), and in several of the cases the Department of Justice attorneys concurred[[35]](#cite_note-35). Some courts accepted this reasoning, but many were skeptical.[[36]](#cite_note-36) On November 14, 2025, Department of Justice Pardon Attorney [Ed Martin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Martin_(Missouri_politician)) announced additional pardons for two of the people charged in the separate cases.
After the 2025 arrest of Brian Cole Jr. in the pipe bomb attacks on the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee the night before January 6, former DOJ prosecutor Ankush Khardori argued that the broad pardon language may apply to Cole, potentially upending prosecution of Cole.[[37]](#cite_note-37) In March 2026, Cole's lawyers made a motion making that exact argument in court.[[38]](#cite_note-38) A federal judge later ruled that the pardon did not apply to the case.[[39]](#cite_note-39)
Fake electors plot pardons
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=7)]
On November 10, 2025, Department of Justice Pardon Attorney [Ed Martin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Martin_(Missouri_politician)) announced on social media that 77 people alleged to have been involved in the 2020 [Trump fake electors plot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_fake_electors_plot) had been pardoned via proclamation. None of the listed people were facing federal charges at the time, and the proclamation, known as Proclamation 10989, does not affect state charges.[[40]](#cite_note-40)[[41]](#cite_note-nytfakeelectorspardon-41)[[42]](#cite_note-Proclamation_10989-42)
Building on the scope questions related to the January 6 Capitol assault mass pardon, Proclamation 10989 explicitly states that the clemency action applies to "all United States citizens for conduct relating to the advice, creation, organization, execution, submission, support, voting, activities, participation in, or advocacy for or of any slate or proposed slate of Presidential electors, whether or not recognized by any State or State official, in connection with the 2020 Presidential Election, as well for any conduct relating to their efforts to expose voting fraud and vulnerabilities in the 2020 Presidential Election" and that it is not limited to the 77 people listed by Martin[[42]](#cite_note-Proclamation_10989-42). The proclamation explicitly disallows Trump as a pardon beneficiary, but otherwise delegates questions about to whom it applies to and what activities it covers to the Department of Justice.[[43]](#cite_note-43)
Attorneys for a man accused of voter fraud in the 2020 election have argued that the pardon applies to him, even though he is not on the proclamation list.[[44]](#cite_note-44) Prosecutors have argued against this interpretation, saying that it is up to the Department of Justice to determine who is eligible for inclusion in the pardon.[[45]](#cite_note-45)
Former NFL player pardons
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=8)]
Shortly after the 2026 [Super Bowl](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl), 'Pardon Czar' [Alice Marie Johnson](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_Marie_Johnson) announced pardons for five former professional football athletes: Joe Klecko, Nate Newton, Jamal Lewis, Travis Henry and the late Billy Cannon.[[46]](#cite_note-46) All had served time and been released after having been convicted on charges ranging from drug dealing to fraud to counterfeiting more than a decade ago.
U.S. semiquincentennial pardons
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=9)]
In early summer 2026, numerous publications reported that Trump was considering marking the [United States Semiquincentennial](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Semiquincentennial) by issuing 250 pardons. [[47]](#cite_note-47)[[48]](#cite_note-48) In a scaled-down announcement on July 3 2026, Trump pardoned a number people and businesses convicted of [Clean Air Act](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_Air_Act) violations, as well as a GOP donor.[[49]](#cite_note-49)
Major beneficiaries
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=10)]
Trump's pardons and grants of clemency favored political allies and loyalists.[[50]](#cite_note-50)[[51]](#cite_note-Thrush_May292025-51) On January 20, 2025, Trump issued mass pardons and commutations to people who were prosecuted in the [January 6 United States Capitol attack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_6_United_States_Capitol_attack). On November 9, 2025, U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin announced that Trump had signed a proclamation granting pardons preempting future federal prosecutions for 77 people associated with the [Trump fake electors plot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_fake_electors_plot) to overturn the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election.[[41]](#cite_note-nytfakeelectorspardon-41). This list included Trump's personal attorney [Rudy Giuliani](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudy_Giuliani) and former chief of staff [Mark Meadows](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Meadows).
NBC News analyzed Trump's pardons for 88 individuals granted through January 20, 2026, and found that more than half of them went to wealthy criminals convicted for white-collar crimes such as money laundering and fraud.[[52]](#cite_note-52)
In April 2026, the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump had recently said he would "pardon everyone who has come within 200 feet of the Oval Office".[[53]](#cite_note-53)
Public reactions to clemency actions
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=11)]
In May 2026, [CBS News](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBS_News) reported that Democrats in both the House and Senate were investigating the pardons and the involvement of "pay-to-play dynamics".[[54]](#cite_note-54)
Reactions to the January 6 United States Capitol attack clemency actions
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=12)]
Trump's pardons and commutations of participants in the [January 6 United States Capitol attack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_6_United_States_Capitol_attack) were widely condemned by involved officers and police unions. Capitol Police sergeant Aquilino A. Gonell, who was hurt in the attack and retired due to those injuries told the New York Times, "It's a miscarriage of justice, a betrayal, a mockery, and a desecration of the men and women that risked their lives defending our democracy."[[55]](#cite_note-55) The International Association of Chiefs of Police and the Fraternal Order of Police issued a joint statement condemning clemency for criminals who assault law enforcement officers, but did not explicitly call out the January 6 actions. Notably, the latter group endorsed Donald Trump in the 2024 US presidential election. The National Association of Police Organizations explicitly condemned the clemency actions for individuals who assaulted law enforcement officers on January 6.[[56]](#cite_note-56)[[57]](#cite_note-57)
Federal judges who oversaw or were overseeing January 6-related cases also condemned the actions. U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan wrote in her dismissal of the charges against January 6 defendant John Banuelo's case that no pardon could change the “tragic truth” of what happened that day: "It cannot whitewash the blood, feces, and terror that the mob left in its wake. And it cannot repair the jagged breach in America's sacred tradition of peacefully transitioning power.”[[58]](#cite_note-58)
Some Senate Republicans also condemned the pardons and commutations. [James Lankford](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Lankford) told CNN, “I think if you attack a police officer that's a very serious issue and they should pay a price for that.” But when Senate Majority leader [John Thune](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Thune) was asked about Trump's clemency actions for the January 6 rioters said, “We're looking at the future, not the past.'[[59]](#cite_note-59)
Reactions to other clemency actions
[[edit](/w/index.php?title=List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_in_the_second_Trump_presidency&action=edit§ion=13)]
More broadly, [The Marshall Project](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Marshall_Project) looked at how Trump's second presidency pardon decisions have deviated from the Department of Justice's clemency process as described in the [Justice Manual](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_Manual), especially with respect to input from victims, prosecutors, and judges; remorse; and restitution paid.[[5]](#cite_note-:1-5) Other analysts and commentators have noted the many white-collar criminals that have benefited from Trump's pardons and commutations. Trump disproportionately pardoned "the powerful, famous, well-connected and wealthy" accused of white-collar crime, which The New York Times described as part of an effort "relegating white-collar offenses to a rank of secondary importance behind violent and property crimes".[[51]](#cite_note-Thrush_May292025-51) Some legal observers have specifically called out how Trump's pardon decisions, together with the gutting of relevant federal prosecution units, have undermined public corruption crime-fighting efforts.[[60]](#cite_note-60)
In March 2026, Trump announced an anti-fraud task force, led by "fraud czar" [JD Vance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JD_Vance), and called out recent cases in Minnesota. In ongoing investigations into fraud involving government money in that state, the vast majority of people prosecuted so far are of Somali descent, and Trump has cited that as justification for his violent crackdown on immigrants in general. But critics have noted that in the first year of his second presidency, Trump has granted pardons and commutations to nearly three dozen people prosecuted for fraud.[[61]](#cite_note-schwartz_propublica-61) "The war on fraud seems like a war on specific fraud committed by a specific kind of people," former U.S. Pardon Attorney Liz Oyer told the New York Times.[[62]](#cite_note-62)
Others have noted that multiple high-level drug kingpins have received pardons, which stands in stark contrast to Trump's tough-on-drugs justifications for [military strikes on and sinking of alleged drug boats](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_strikes_on_alleged_drug_traffickers_during_Operation_Southern_Spear).[[63]](#cite_note-63)[[64]](#cite_note-64)
Trump received criticism for pardoning crypto billionaire [Changpeng Zhao](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Changpeng_Zhao), whose company [Binance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binance) entered into a business deal with the Trump family's crypto startup [World Liberty Financial](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Liberty_Financial).[[65]](#cite_note-nytczpardon-65)[[66]](#cite_note-66) In response to criticism of his pardon, Trump stated "I don't know who he is".[[67]](#cite_note-67) On November 16, 2025, [CBS News](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBS_News) aired an interview [Scott Pelley](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Pelley) conducted with former Justice Department Pardon Attorney Liz Oyer, in which she said that the pardon process now favored the wealthy, and criticizing the pardon of Zhao in particular.[[68]](#cite_note-68)
