Article II Section 2 of the US Constitution grants the US President the power to issue pardons. The power was first used in 1795 by George Washington to pardon Whiskey Rebellion participants and last used by Donald Trump in 2025 to pardon January 6 insurrectionists. Although pardons are often controversial, with more than 20,000 acts of executive clemency, they are not rare.

Join CPF for a conversation with bestselling author and CNN Chief Legal Analyst Jeffrey Toobin about presidential pardons and his brand new book “The Pardon: The Politics of Presidential Mercy.” CPF Director Bob Shrum leads this discussion about famous pardons throughout history and the latest pardons from Presidents Biden and Trump. Plus they will answer your questions about pardons.
