A federal judge has ruled that the person accused of planting pipe bombs near the Capitol on January 6, 2021 is not covered by Donald Trump's blanket pardons of January 6 defendants. The decision means the case against the alleged bomber can proceed. It is likely to fuel fresh debate over the scope of Trump's clemency orders and how courts interpret them.
