Overview
- U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin posted the signed proclamation on X late Sunday, listing 77 recipients and writing "No MAGA left behind."
- High-profile names include Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, John Eastman, Sidney Powell, Kenneth Chesebro, Boris Epshteyn and Jenna Ellis.
- The order issues “full, complete and unconditional” pardons for conduct tied to creating or advocating alternate slates of presidential electors and to efforts to expose alleged fraud in 2020.
- The clemency applies only to federal exposure and, for many who were never federally charged, chiefly forecloses any future U.S. prosecutions.
- State cases remain active in Georgia, Arizona, Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin, with Georgia facing a Nov. 14 deadline to assign a new prosecutor and other matters pending on dismissals or venue.
