## Resource

Trump shocks the nation by pardoning six men he claims were unfairly prosecuted for modifying their cars, calling the cases “weaponization and stupidity.” Among them: the Lalone brothers, Matt Geouge, Tim Clancy, and Mac Spurlock — all freed after lawyers praised Trump for standing up to what they call prosecutorial overreach. Four more were pardoned, three for similar pollution violations — part of a broader White House shift after the Justice Department recently told prosecutors to drop all cases involving emissions defeat devices. This move echoes Trump’s earlier pardon of a mechanic for similar offenses, signaling a new administration stance on environmental enforcement.
