Trump pardons 2 auto workers on stage during rally in Alaska

President Trump granted onstage pardons to two Alaska auto shop owners who pleaded guilty to violating the Clean Air Act during a rally Tuesday — an unusually public use of the president's clemency power.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets center Trump’s Alaska rally and the tight Senate race there, with NBC News framing Alaska as a “surprising battleground” and The Hill saying Sullivan faces a close reelection fight against Mary Peltola. The Hill is alone in giving the rally location in Wasilla and in making the live-updates framing explicit, while NBC News alone describes Alaska as a solid red state with a surprisingly tight race.
