Trump pardons 2 auto workers on stage during rally in Alaska

TL;DR

President Trump granted onstage pardons to Zachary Czubak and Patrick Fleming at an Alaska rally.
Czubak and Fleming pleaded guilty in 2022 to conspiring to violate the Clean Air Act by removing vehicle emission control systems.
They were sentenced to probation, fines, and community service.
Trump called the charges against them an example of the Biden-era Justice Department "viciously target[ing] the Alaskan way of life."
The president also mentioned a third co-owner, Michael Hanzuk, who was pardoned last month, and a fourth unnamed individual being "taken care of."
The Justice Department announced in January it would no longer pursue criminal charges under the Clean Air Act based on allegations of tampering with onboard diagnostic devices.
