Trump is holding up a presidential proclamation he signed on the first day of his second term, January 20, 2025. The document Trump is holding is numbered Proclamation 10887 and titled “Granting Pardons and Commutation of Sentences for Certain Offenses Relating to the Events at or Near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.” It lists the names of 14 people whose sentences are to be commuted and orders a blanket pardon for all others convicted of crimes related to that event. It also instructs the Department of Justice to cease any ongoing prosecutions of January 6-related offenses. The photograph was taken in the Oval Office and is from an official White House tweet.
