The leaders of the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers were both freed from long sentences by President Donald Trump. Who are they? And what are their groups?

President Donald Trump pardoned all of the nearly 1,600 people charged in connection with the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol and commuted the sentences for 14.

Among those impacted was David Moerschel, 37, a self-described former member of the Oath Keepers militia group from Port Charlotte, Florida, who had his sentence commuted late Monday evening.

Rhodes was sentenced to 18 years in May 2023 after a jury found him guilty of conspiring to stop the transfer of power and other charges. In September 2023, Tarrio, who asked Trump for a full pardon on the fourth anniversary of the insurrection, was sentenced to 22 years.

Joseph Biggs, a member of the Proud Boys from Ormond Beach, had a 17-year sentence commuted by Trump. Prosecutors said Biggs led a group of rioters chanting, “Whose house? Our house,” to tear down fencing and burst through barricades at the Capitol. Biggs famously bragged on video: “We’ve gone through every barricade thus far.”

The Oath Keepers founder met with Republican Rep. Gus Bilirakis of Florida to lobby for a pardon for fellow Oath Keeper and January 6 rioter Jeremy Brown, who was sentenced to seven years in prison on weapons charges.
