Tarrio and Rhodes, who both have ties to far-right groups, were serving long sentences until Trump granted clemency
Among the 1,500 people Donald Trump granted clemency over the January 6 insurrection, two stand out: Enrique Tarrio and Stewart Rhodes, who were serving long sentences for their key roles in plotting the storming of the Capitol.
Both men had their sentences commuted by Trump in one of his first acts in office, a statement of intent from a president who has insisted the violent siege of the seat of government, which is linked to nine deaths, was a “day of love”.
