President Trump granted clemency to numerous individuals this week, including former Congressman Michael Grimm and rapper NBA YoungBoy. The pardons and commutations encompass various crimes, from tax evasion and gun charges to bribery and fraud. Notable recipients also include former Connecticut Governor John Rowland and Larry Hoover, co-founder of the Gangster Disciples. These actions bypass typical Department of Justice processes, with many pardoned individuals having ties to Trump's political allies. More commutations are expected.
