Trump’s pardons for Jan. 6 rioters don’t apply to DC pipe bomb suspect, judge rules

A federal judge ruled that President Donald Trump’s pardons for Jan. 6 rioters do not apply to Brian J. Cole Jr., a Virginia man charged with planting pipe bombs near the Democratic and Republican National Committee headquarters on the night before the Jan. 6, 2021, riot. The judge noted that Cole was not charged or convicted when Trump issued the pardons, which explicitly applied only to those convicted of Jan. 6-related crimes.
