TRUMP EYES DIDDY PARDON
CBS News reports that President Trump is set to pardon a slate of pollution violators while privately weighing clemency for Sean “Diddy” Combs and other high-profile figures.
President Trump is poised to pardon a slate of people convicted of emissions and clean air-related violations, while still considering clemency for Sean “Diddy” Combs and other well-known figures, CBS News reports, citing sources familiar with his plans.
Combs is serving a four-year sentence for prostitution-related transportation charges after being acquitted of more serious sex trafficking and racketeering counts. Another figure reportedly seeking a pardon is Fugees rapper Pras Michel, jailed for conspiring in illegal foreign lobbying campaigns.
Friday’s clemency list was expected to focus solely on Clean Air Act violations, continuing a pattern of pardons that has drawn growing scrutiny from congressional Democrats.
