Trump grants preventive presidential pardons to 77 people linked to his bid to overturn the 2020 election

Donald Trump has preemptively granted presidential pardons to 77 people connected to the effort to overturn the 2020 election, which he lost to Joe Biden. Among those pardoned is Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor and a key Trump ally who led the efforts, along with former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and dozens of others who argued publicly that the election had been stolen from him. The pardons are largely symbolic since none face federal charges; they reflect the reward-and-punishment approach Trump has used since returning to the White House.
