Donald Trump issues 73 pardons in final hours in the office: Here's the full list

In his final acts in the President’s office, Donald Trump has officially pardoned 73 people including his former senior advisor Steve Bannon, Lil Wayne amongst others. Contrary to what many speculated, the 74 year old did not pardon himself or his family or even his former ally Rudy Giuliani. However, experts have pointed out to the grey area in the US constitution which allows the President to offer “secret” pardons without notifying the congress or the public.

Steve Bannon

Bannon was charged in 2020 with swindling Trump supporters over an effort to raise private funds to build the president’s wall on the US-Mexico border. He has pleaded not guilty. The 67-year-old had served as Trump’s key advisor in 2016 presidential run. However, in 2017 he had left the Republican’ side only to get back to Trump later in 2020. According to reports, White House Officials had warned Trump against issuing him clemency.

Others issued clemency

Amongst those issued clemency were rapper Lil Wayne and Kodak Black, both of whom were prosecuted on federal weapons offences. Another important figure in the list was Elliott Broidy, a former fundraiser for Trump who has admitted illegally lobbying the US government to drop its inquiry into the Malaysia 1MDB corruption scandal and to deport an exiled Chinese billionaire. In addendum,Jared Kushner’s friend Ken Kurson, Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, Anthony Levandowski, Sholam Weiss and others also benefited from the act of clemency.
