The record on January 6 clemency and political violence, January 2025–July 2026
Between January 2025 and July 2026 the administration granted clemency to roughly 1,500 people convicted or charged in the January 6 Capitol attack (full unconditional pardons plus commutations for 14 seditious-conspiracy leaders), dismissed pending cases, and let the action stand without reversal. The payload record contains no restorative or reversing event within the thread.
