A federal judge ruled on July 7, 2026, that President Donald Trump’s mass pardons issued for rioters involved in the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol do not extend to a Virginia man charged with planting a pipe bomb near the national headquarters of both the Democratic and Republican parties the night before the attack.
The ruling clarifies that the scope of Trump’s pardons does not cover this specific case involving serious charges related to explosives and threats against political party facilities.
