Trump Pardons Former Rep Stephen Buyer

Former Rep. Stephen Buyer, jailed for insider trading, gets a presidential pardon from Trump — despite a Supreme Court rejection of his appeal — citing his military service and congressional record. Buyer, who maintains his innocence and claims he was politically targeted, was convicted for trades during his consulting work, including in the T-Mobile/Sprint merger and Navigant acquisition. Over 40 former GOP lawmakers and five current House Republicans back the pardon, calling it justice against “lawfare.” Though the pardon doesn’t erase his conviction, it’s seen as a powerful act of mercy.
