Trump pardons Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell and others accused of seeking to overturn his 2020 election loss
Donald Trump pardoned 77 allies involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election, aiming to end what he called a grave national injustice and promote reconciliation.
- By November 10, 2025, President Donald Trump pardoned dozens tied to efforts to overturn the 2020 election, including alternative state electors, a proclamation posted by Ed Martin, Justice Department Pardon Attorney.
- The proclamation describes the action as ending a "grave national injustice" and "continues the process of national reconciliation," covering conduct tied to electors and efforts to expose voting fraud.
- Among those listed are 77 people, including Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, John Eastman, Jenna Ellis, Kenneth Chesebro, Mark Meadows, Boris Epshteyn, and Jeffrey Clark, as posted Sunday night.
- Presidential clemency covers federal offenses only, leaving state prosecutions intact in Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin and Nevada, while President Donald Trump is explicitly excluded from the proclamation.
- Legal analysts say the pardons block federal cases by future administrations, as legal experts note they would preclude prosecutions and follow earlier Jan. 6 pardons this year.
