Trump Jan. 6 pardons don't cover pipe bomb suspect: Judge

A federal judge ruled that President Donald Trump's January 6 pardons for individuals involved in the Capitol riot do not extend to a Virginia man accused of placing a pipe bomb near the headquarters of both major political parties the night before the attack. The ruling indicates that the pardons issued by Trump were limited in scope and did not cover all individuals associated with the events of January 6. This decision highlights the legal distinction between those directly involved in the riot and others who may have contributed to the unrest through separate actions. The case underscores ongoing legal scrutiny surrounding the aftermath of the Capitol attack and the implications of presidential pardons.
