This comes as Trump signed an order which issued pardons for people charged with participating in the January 6, 2021 riot at the US Capitol. Trump said he was pardoning about 1,500 defendants and issuing six commutations. The pardons fulfil Trump’s promise to release supporters who tried to help him overturn his election defeat four years ago.
“These are the hostages,” he said while signing the paperwork in the Oval Office, according to the Associated Press.
He also signed an executive order directing government agencies not to infringe on the free speech of Americans. “In America, we believe in free speech and we're bringing it back starting today to stop the weaponisation,” Trump said before signing the executive order at the Capitol One Arena here.
The executive order is to immediately end the federal government's censorship of the American people, he said.
