Episode Details

A federal judge just ruled that Donald Trump’s January 6th pardons don’t cover Brian J. Cole Jr., who planted pipe bombs near RNC and DNC headquarters the night before the Capitol riot. Cole, arrested nearly a year after the pardons, was never charged at the time — and the judge said the pardons only apply to those convicted of crimes directly tied to the riot. Cole confessed to prosecutors, claiming he was swayed by election conspiracy theories. His case will proceed separately, reminding us that even broad presidential pardons can’t shield everyone — and the legal system still holds space for accountability.
