Senator Warns Donald Trump of ‘Impeachment’ If He Issues Pardons for J6 Defendants as President

May 12, 2023

Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) is warning Donald Trump that if he became president again and issued pardons for some January 6 defendants, that would be grounds for another impeachment.

“If Donald Trump pardons the January 6th rioters, the insurrectionists who almost destroyed our democracy, I think it’s another grounds for impeachment,” Blumenthal said. “I think to so violate the American trust by pardoning the January 6th insurrectionists would be itself a betrayal of trust that would warrant an impeachment process.”
