Senate Democrats are condemning President Donald Trump's decision to set free some of his most violent supporters, introducing a resolution Monday that condemns his opening-day pardons of Jan. 6 rioters who were convicted of attacking police.
“Insurrectionists cracked the ribs of police officers and smashed spinal disks," Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., said in a statement. "Donald Trump’s pardons are a wholesale endorsement of political violence — as long as it serves Donald Trump."
