Two of 1,500 Capitol rioters have declined their pardons from Donald Trump. Pamela Hemphill told Boise ABC affiliate KIVI: "I broke the law. I pleaded guilty because I was guilty. And we know all of them are guilty." Jason Riddle, who was struggling with alcohol addiction at the time of his arrest for theft of government property and illegal protesting, credited his 90-day sentence and mandatory alcoholic treatment for his "happy and fruitful existence." "I don't need to obsess over a narcissistic bully to feel better about myself," he told @abc: "Trump can shove his pardon up his a**."
