Exiting President Donald Trump issued dozens of last-minute pardons.
Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon is among those to be pardoned. Bannon last year was charged for allegedly misusing funds he helped raise for Trump's border wall.
Other pardons include those for Republican party fundraiser Elliott Broidy, who pleaded guilty in October to acting as an unregistered foreign agent. The sentence was commuted for former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, who was convicted on two dozen charges including racketeering.
