President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that he had pardoned 23 anti-abortion activists who were charged under the previous administration of Joe Biden. Trump made this announcement in the Oval Office, stating that these individuals 'should not have been prosecuted.' He emphasized that many of the prosecuted individuals were elderly and should not have faced legal action. The president did not disclose the names of those who received the pardons.
Trump is set to deliver a pre-taped video message at the annual March for Life event on Friday, as reported by sources earlier on Thursday. Throughout his candidacy, Trump had a fluctuating stance on abortion, at times highlighting his support from anti-abortion advocates while also stating that he would not endorse a federal abortion ban.
