周一，观察人士迅速指责唐纳德·特朗普总统全面赦免所谓的“假选举人”作为一种象征性的姿态，因为对这些个人的各种刑事案件存在于各州——在总统赦免的管辖范围之外。
但有一个明显的例外:哈里森·弗洛伊德(Harrison Floyd)，一位鲜为人知的前海军陆战队员，曾为特朗普的2020年竞选服务。
特朗普赦免了据称参与他试图推翻选举的高调个人，包括鲁迪·朱利安尼、悉尼·鲍威尔、鲍里斯·爱普施泰因、约翰·伊斯曼和马克·梅多斯，以及据称与挑战2020年选举结果的努力有关的其他72人。
弗洛伊德因其在2020年大选后的作用而被指控与朱利安尼和格鲁吉亚其他人一起敲诈勒索。但他还面临一项不相关的联邦指控，即在2023年袭击一名联邦特工。
现在，弗洛伊德的律师表示，赦免也可以扩展到他的联邦指控。
弗洛伊德的律师卡洛斯J.R萨尔瓦多(Carlos J.R. Salvado)在接受美国广播公司新闻(ABC News)的简短电话采访时说，“显然，有一种观点认为，这项赦免延伸到了那项指控，但目前我只能告诉你这些。”
据报道，弗洛伊德涉嫌袭击了两名美国联邦调查局特工，他们代表特别顾问杰克·史密斯向弗洛伊德送达传票，作为联邦调查2020年选举颠覆的一部分华盛顿邮报。《华盛顿邮报》援引一份密封的宣誓书报道说，弗洛伊德殴打一名特工，并大喊“你以为你是谁?”
特朗普赦免中的语言涵盖了被控“与他们在2020年总统选举中揭露投票欺诈和漏洞的努力有关的任何行为”的个人。
法庭记录显示，弗洛伊德没有对攻击指控进行抗辩，但他的律师表示，他们正准备将此案提交审判。
星期一，弗洛伊德在X上写道，“有史以来最好的生日礼物!感谢@EagleEdMartin、@WhiteHouse以及所有参与其中的人。”
Man pardoned by Trump in 'fake electors' scheme hopes it extends to unrelated assault charge
Observers on Monday were quick to frame President Donald Trump'ssweeping pardonof so-called "fake electors" as a symbolic gesture since the various criminal cases against those individuals exist in the states -- outside the jurisdiction of presidential clemency.
But there is one notable exception: Harrison Floyd, a little-known ex-Marine who served on Trump's 2020 campaign.
Trump pardoned high-profile individuals allegedly involved in his attempt to overturn the election, including Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Boris Epshteyn, John Eastman and Mark Meadows, and 72 other individuals allegedly associated with the effort to challenge the 2020 election results.
Floyd was charged with racketeering alongside Giuliani and others in Georgia for his role in the aftermath of the 2020 election. But he also faces an unrelated federal charge for assaulting a federal agent in 2023.
And now an attorney for Floyd says the pardon could extend to his federal charge, too.
"Obviously, there is an argument that this pardon extends to that charge, but that's all I can tell you at this point," Carlos J.R. Salvado, an attorney for Floyd, said in a brief phone interview with ABC News.
Floyd allegedly attacked two FBI agents dispatched on behalf of Special Counsel Jack Smith to serve Floyd with a subpoena as part of the federal investigation into 2020 election subversion, according tothe Washington Post. The Post, citing a sealed affidavit, reported that Floyd body-slammed one of the agents and shouted "Who the f--- do you think you are?"
The language in Trump's pardon covers individuals charged with "any conduct relating to their efforts to expose voting fraud and vulnerabilities in the 2020 Presidential Election."
Floyd has not entered a plea on the assault charge, court records show, but his attorney said they were preparing to take the case to trial.
On Monday, Floydwrote on X, "BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT EVER! Thank you @EagleEdMartin, @WhiteHouse and everyone else involved."
