Trump pardoned around 1,500 people convicted in relation to Jan. 6..

Approximately 140 police officers were injured that day, according to the Department of Justice, by Trump-supporting rioters using weapons from bats, hockey sticks, bear spray and stun guns.

Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who was sprayed with a chemical substance during the riot, collapsed later and died from two strokes on January 7, the D.C. medical examiner's office said.

Trump pardoned Daniel Rodriguez who pleaded guilty to assaulting a police officer during the attack on the Capitol and was sentenced to more than 12 years in prison by a federal judge who called him a “one-man army of hate.”

Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone recalls being dragged from a line of police officers into the heart of the mob, where rioters beat him and attempted to take his service weapon. Fanone was shocked multiple times in the neck by a taser wielded by Rodriguez, and suffered a heart attack at some point during the day, a concussion, traumatic brain injury, and was later diagnosed with PTSD.

Trump pardoned Devlyn Thompson, who hit a police officer with a metal baton, and Robert Palmer, a Florida man who attacked police with a fire extinguisher, a wooden plank and a pole.

Trump pardoned David Dempsey who was sentenced to 20 years in prison for his role in the riot and had one of the longest sentences given to a Jan. 6 defendant. According to prosecutors, Dempsey “viciously assaulted and injured police officers defending the Lower West Terrace Tunnel with a variety of implements here fashioned as weapons,” for over an hour the day of the attack.

Trump pardoned Patrick McCaughey III who was sentenced to 90 months in prison for — along with two co-defendants — assaulting police in their bid to force their way into the Capitol. As McCaughey and other attackers attempted to force their way through a line of cops with riot shields, he used a stolen shield to push MPD Officer Daniel Hodges against a metal door frame while another assailant hit him in the face with a stolen baton.

Trump pardoned Peter Francis Stager, a truck driver from Arkansas, who was sentenced to four years and four months in prison after pleading guilty to assaulting an officer with a deadly or dangerous weapon — in this case a flagpole. “Stager himself wielded a flagpole and used it to strike at a vulnerable officer, who, lying face down in a mob of rioters, had no means of defending himself.” prosecutors wrote of the assault that took place near the Lower West tunnel entrance to the Capitol. A site where the fighting between police and the mob of rioters reached a fever pitch.

Trump pardoned Robert Palmer, 54, of Largo, Florida, who was one of the angry mob who made his way to the front line during the chaos and started to attack, throwing a wooden plank, spraying a fire extinguisher, then hurling it when it was done. He rooted around for other objects, prosecutors said. He was briefly pepper-sprayed by police before he attacked officers again with a pole. He pleaded guilty to attacking officers.

Trump pardoned Peter Schwartz who attacked police officers at the Capitol with pepper spray and enabled hundreds of rioters to impede officers when he threw a folding chair at police near the Capitol’s Lower West Terrace. He then seized a police duffle bag full of pepper-spray canisters and handed them out to others in the mob, including his wife, so they could be used against officers.

Trump pardoned Thomas Webster, a former New York City police officer and Marine Corps veteran, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for swinging a metal flagpole at police before tackling one officer and yanking his gas mask off on Jan. 6.

Trump pardoned Thomas Robertson, a former Virginia police officer and Army veteran who used a large wooden stick to block the path of officers who tried to stop the mob and destroyed his phone when he got home.

Trump pardoned Nicholas Languerand, a QAnon follower, who threw various objects at officers with the U.S. Capitol Police and Metropolitan Police Department, including an orange traffic barrier and two stick-like objects at officers who were protecting the Lower West Terrace entrance to the Capitol.

Trump pardoned Scott Kevin Fairlamb who videos from the Capitol riot show climbing on inauguration scaffolding, pushing a police officer into a group of people and punching the officer’s face shield.

Trump pardoned Greg Rubenacker who engaged in a series of confrontations with law enforcement while inside the Capitol, and was among the small crowd that chased Capitol Police Officer Eugene Goodman up the stairs outside the Senate Chamber. Prosecutors said Rubenacker resisted officers who were trying to force the rioters from the area, swinging a plastic water bottle at one officer’s head and spraying water from the bottle.

Trump pardoned Matthew Ryan Miller who was seen on video throwing objects at police officers and scaling the walls of the Capitol building. According to court documents, Miller, age 23 at his sentencing in May 2022, threw a full beer can and batteries in the direction of law enforcement. He also sprayed a fire extinguisher directly into the tunnel onto police officers. His lawyer claimed he was drunk and high at the time. After scaling a Capitol wall using a metal barrier as a ladder, Miller urged others in the mob to join him. He assisted rioters, waved his hands and said multiple times “Come on” as the crowd chanted “Heave! Ho!” He also urged the mob to help him push against law enforcement officers on the Lower West Terrace, putting up his fingers and yelling “One, two, three, push!” multiple times.

NEW YORK (AP) June 16, 2025— The man accused of assassinating the top Democrat in the Minnesota House held deeply religious and politically conservative views, telling a congregation in Africa two years ago that the U.S. was in a “bad place” where most churches didn’t oppose abortion.

Vance Luther Boelter, 57, was captured late Sunday following a two-day search authorities described as the largest in the state’s history. Boelter is accused of impersonating a police officer and gunning down former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, in their home outside Minneapolis. Democratic Gov. Tim Walz described the shooting as “a politically motivated assassination.”

Sen. John Hoffman, also a Democrat, and his wife, Yvette, were shot earlier by the same gunman at their home nearby but survived.

Friends and former colleagues interviewed by AP described Boelter as a devout Christian who attended an evangelical church and went to campaign rallies for President Donald Trump. Records show Boelter registered to vote as a Republican while living in Oklahoma in 2004 before moving to Minnesota where voters don’t list party affiliation.

Near the scene at Hortman’s home, authorities say they found an SUV made to look like those used by law enforcement. Inside they found fliers for a local anti-Trump “No Kings” rally scheduled for Saturday and a notebook with names of other lawmakers. The list also included the names of abortion rights advocates and health care officials, according to two law enforcement officials who could not discuss details of the ongoing investigation and spoke to AP on condition of anonymity.

David DePape, the 42-year-old man accused of breaking into the Pelosi home with zip ties and attacking Paul Pelosi with a hammer, was federally charged with (and eventually convicted of) assault and attempted kidnapping. DePape allegedly broke into the Pelosi home prepared to “detain and injure” Nancy Pelosi, and break “her kneecaps” if she “lied,” to him, according to a sworn affidavit submitted by an FBI special agent.

When asked about Paul Pelosi in an interview over the weekend, Donald Trump conflated the politically motivated attack with crime in American cities run by Democrats, an issue Republicans have been pushing hard in campaigns around the country. “With Paul Pelosi, that’s a terrible thing, with all of them it’s a terrible thing,” said Trump in an interview broadcast Oct. 30 with Americano Media, a conservative Spanish language news outlet. “Look at what’s happened to San Francisco generally. Look at what’s happening in Chicago.”

Republicans have for years made Pelosi out to be a villain. In 2009, the Republican National Committee ran an ad showing Pelosi’s face at the end of a gun barrel. On Oct. 26, days before the attack, Rep. Tom Emmer, the chair of the National Republican Congressional Committee, posted a video of himself shooting a rifle with the messages “exercising my Second Amendment rights” and “13 days to make history. Let’s #FirePelosi.”

Trump posted a fake video of Nancy Pelosi that used an AI-generated voice to mock the former House Speaker. In the clip, “Pelosi” claims she is out of Congress, can no longer get stock tips, has taken up drinking, and jokes about her husband being in a relationship with his hammer-wielding attacker.

The video, which Trump shared shared to his Truth Social account, echoes long-running MAGA conspiracy theories that have sought to discredit or distort the facts of the assault. Far-right accounts have repeatedly circulated false narratives about the hammer attack, despite law enforcement confirming it was politically motivated violence.

Trump said he would “stand up to crazy Nancy Pelosi“ if reelected president, asking a crowd of supporters, “How’s her husband doing by the way?” and saying a “wall around her house” didn’t do a “good job” of protecting her 82-year-old husband from an intruder who fractured his skull with a hammer during a break-in last year—prompting laughter from the crowd.

Donald Trump mocked Paul Pelosi in a speech just months after the ex-Speaker's husband was injured in a hammer attack at their San Franciso home.

“I will stand up to crazy Nancy Pelosi who ruined San Francisco... How's her husband doing by the way? Anybody know?” Mr Trump said at the fall convention of the California Republican Party in Anaheim on Friday.

“And she's against building a wall [on] our border even though she has a wall around her house, which obviously didn't do a very good job,” he added to laughter in the room.
