Trump Handing Out Independence Day Pardons, Diddy Wants One

Headlines have been popping up since Friday that Trump may consider adding Sean Diddy Combs to his pardon list in honor of our nation’s 250th anniversary. Trump reportedly wants to pardon 250 people for our 250th celebrations. On Friday, Trump pardoned 11 people, most of whom were convicted on emissions violations of the Clean Air Act, but the question remains will he pardon more in the coming days. Diddy’s release date has already been moved up at third time, to February of 2028, but he also has a pending appeal that could either vacate his conviction or drastically reduce his sentencing. That appeals court decision could come at any time, with one of the judges acknowledging it is “an exceptionally difficult case.”
