Colorado officials say the pardon is invalid because Tina Peters was convicted under state law and the president may grant pardons only for federal offenses.
A group of local and national news outlets, including The Associated Press, is pushing to retain media access throughout the defendant’s criminal case.
The official said Trump’s strategy is a call for European renewal, not abandonment, urging allies to boost defense, competitiveness, and ties with Washington.
