President Trump on June 4, 2026 granted a full pardon to former Indiana Republican Congressman Stephen Buyer, who was convicted in 2023 on four counts of securities fraud for insider trading tied to the Sprint/T-Mobile merger and Navigant Consulting acquisition. The pardon, backed by more than 50 current and former lawmakers, makes Buyer the second former congressman pardoned by Trump for insider trading — following Chris Collins — and intensifies scrutiny of a clemency pattern that has disproportionately favored white-collar offenders with political connections.
