January 21, Washington: Donald Trump took out about 1,500 party supporters who attacked the US Capitol four years ago as he moved swiftly to impose his want on the US government hours after claiming the presidency on Monday.
After a day of ceremony, Trump initiated a series of executive actions to cancel out immigration and roll back environmental regulations and racial and gender diversity initiatives. Although he did not take immediate action to raise tariffs, a key campaign promise, but said he could impose 25% duties on Canada and Mexico on February 1.
His decision to pardon supporters who attacked the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, is sure to enrage police, lawmakers, and others whose lives were put at risk during an unprecedented episode in modern US history.
140 police officers were assaulted during the attack, with some sprayed with chemical irritants and others struck with pipes, poles, and other weapons. Four people died during the chaos, including a Trump supporter who was shot dead by police.
Trump ordered 14 leaders of the far-right Oath Keepers and Proud Boys militant groups, who were serving long prison sentences, released from prison early, but left their convictions intact.
