<p>President Donald Trump issued a sweeping executive order on Monday granting full pardons for about 1,500 criminal defendants related to the January 6 Capitol breach.</p>
<p>The EO covers all J6 defendants, save 14 cases, which will be granted commutations as Trump further looks at each individual case, the president told the press while in the Oval Office.</p>
<p>&#8220;So this is January 6 — these are the hostages, approximately 1,500 for a pardon. Full pardon,&#8221; Trump said before signing the order. &#8220;We have about six commutations in there, where we&#8217;re doing further research.&#8221;</p>
<p>The EO, however, says there are 14 people who have been granted commutations, not six.</p>
<p>&#8220;We hope they come out tonight, frankly,&#8221; the president added, referring to J6ers&#8217; release from prison.</p>
