Former President Donald Trump signed executive orders granting clemency to pro-life activists and January 6 defendants, addressing what he and supporters view as politically motivated prosecutions.
Among those pardoned were pro-life activists convicted under the FACE Act, aligning Trump with the pro-life community ahead of the March for Life.
Trump also pardoned over 1,500 individuals involved in politically sensitive cases, including figures like Heather Idoni and Holocaust survivor Eva Edl, who were convicted for anti-abortion protests.
The clemency actions strengthen Trump’s position with supporters but spark debate over justice, activism, and executive power.
