President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday declaring that the federal government would no longer recognize the US-born children of undocumented immigrants as American citizens. It’s a move that has been brewing for years. The Washington Post described the order as an effort to “reinterpret the 14th Amendment of the Constitution,” and sure enough, the text includes a few paragraphs of legalese purporting to do just that.
President Donald Trump on Monday granted clemency to nearly 1,600 people who joined in the January 6 attack on Congress that he himself caused.
Hours after returning to office, Trump announced he was giving “full, complete and unconditional” pardons to nearly all “individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.”
Trump also announced commutations of prison sentences for the handful of January 6 convicts not given full pardons—14 top members of the far-right Oath Keepers militia and Proud Boys—freeing them from lengthy prison sentences.
These actions mean that Stewart Rhodes, the Oath Keepers leader who was sentenced to 18 years in prison following his conviction for seditious conspiracy and other crimes for planning violence on January 6, is a free man.
President Donald Trump’s mass pardoning of more than 1,500 people connected to the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U. S. Capitol includes at least 30 Coloradans who will either see their convictions wiped out or pending charges dropped.
Trump announced the pardons and commutations late Monday, hours after his inauguration in Washington, D.
At a January 19th rally, Trump confessed the 2024 election was rigged and that Elon Musk helped him win. In the video above, watch Trump praise Musk,
"He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."
In another confession during the January 19th event, Trump told the crowd how he gets to preside over the Olympics and World Cup:
"It’s only because they rigged the election that I’ll be your president representing you there."

With President Donald Trump inaugurated on Monday, metro Denver immigrant communities and residents are now wondering how soon his policies — including proposed mass deportations — could be carried out locally.
So far, reports in recent days of potential raids targeting Denver’s immigrant communities by U. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement are unconfirmed.
But The Wall Street Journal, citing unnamed sources, included Denver on a list of major U.
