    Washington D.C (GNB): President Donald Trump on Wednesday evening granted 26 more pardons, including former campaign manager Paul Manafort, ex-adviser Roger Stone, and Jared Kushner’s father- Charles Kushner.

    With this announcement, Trump has granted clemency to nearly 50 people in the last two days by pardoning them or by commuting their sentences.

    Manafort was convicted in 2018 in an investigation into alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 US election.

    Trump has previously commuted the criminal sentence of Stone, who was convicted of lying to Congress.

    They are among 29 people to benefit from Mr Trump’s latest clemency spree before he leaves office next month.

    One of them is Charles Kushner, a real estate magnate who is the father of Ivanka Trump’s husband, Jared Kushner, a White House adviser.

    Kushner Sr was sentenced to two years in prison in 2004 for charges including tax. evasion and witness tampering.

    The wave of pardons Wednesday evening comes after Trump used his expansive pardon powers Tuesday for a list that included former campaign aide George Papadopoulos, former US congressman Chris Collins, and the four Blackwater guards involved in the Iraq massacre.
