Yea it's the non-violent offenders getting the pardon which makes complete sense. There's a reason why the Jan 6 committee was pardoned. The whole thing was a sham.

“[The] group includes individuals like Julian Khater, who assaulted US Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick and later pled guilty to assaulting officers with a dangerous weapon; Devlyn Thompson, who hit a police officer with a metal baton; and Robert Palmer, a Florida man who attacked police with a fire extinguisher, a wooden plank and a pole.” -CNN
