ARDMORE, Pennsylvania (WPVI) In the waning hours of his time in office, President Donald Trump late Tuesday issued a final batch of pardons and commutations to a group that included former White House strategist Steve Bannon and two other longtime political allies, Elliott Broidy and Paul Erickson, in a move that will further solidify Trump s legacy of using his sweeping presidential powers to benefit his inner circle.
The latest batch of names, released by the White House on Trump s final night as president, granted 73 pardons and commuted all or part of the sentence of 70 additional individuals, after Trump had already issued several dozen such directives in recent months.
