Fact check: Troy Lake, one of the first people pardoned by Trump for violations of the Clean Air Act(he modified and removed emission controls from more than 300 trucks), was raided under the first Trump administration in 2018 and jailed under the second. In fact the Biden administration ended the initiative in 2023. Of course Trump lies about everything... Speaking in June at an agricultural roundtable in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, Trump recounted Lake’s case — or at least his own version of it. “I gave him a pardon because he had to go to jail because he was fixing his tractor or his truck,” Trump told his host at the Wisconsin event, farmer Ken Custer. “So I promise, Ken, if you ever get caught fixing your tractor or truck, I will give you a pardon, OK?” https://www.politico.com/news/2026/06/13/clean-air-act-diesel-pardon-trump-00960608
