I don't know anything about that or it's circumstances, perhaps that is also a conflict of interest as well, but at the very least there's no blood connection.

My guy, Trump was known as the pardon king. If you're truly worried about presidents overreaching and abusing their pardon authority then you should actually look into all the pardons he gave away.

If you're done speaking in platitudes I actually suggest you do some real research. Just look at how many white collar criminals he did pardon, his son in law's father among them. A guy that Chris Christie threw in jail.
My real guess is that you don't actually care about what he does as long as he uses the veneer of being anti-establishment and pro-worker. He is and has always been an expert conman.
I'm aware that following a narrative is very tempting since it helps you simplify your worldview, but if you truly care about government overeach, corruption, and the class-war between elites and the middle class then I'd suggest you take a real hard look at Trump's policies. They're virtually the same as any standard republican.
"South Korea president declares emergency martial law
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law in an unannounced late-night TV address Tuesday, accusing the country’s main opposition party of sympathizing with North Korea and of anti-state activities.
Yoon did not say what specific measures would be taken. He cited a motion by the opposition Democratic Party, which has a majority in parliament, to impeach top prosecutors and reject a government budget proposal.
Yoon labeled the opposition’s actions as “clear anti-state behavior aimed at inciting rebellion.” He further claimed these acts have “paralyzed state affairs and turned the National Assembly into a den of criminals.”
He describing martial law as a necessary measure to eradicate these “shameless pro-North anti-state forces.” He justified the decision as essential to protect the freedoms and safety of the people, ensure the country’s sustainability, and pass on a stable nation to future generations.
The parliament speaker is traveling to parliament and plans to convene a session, according to local broadcaster YTN TV. Yonhap news agency reported though that the entrance to parliament is blocked and lawmakers are unable to enter.
Yoon accused the opposition of turning the nation into a “drug haven” and creating a state of disorder detrimental to public safety and livelihood. He also said the Democratic Party was attempting to overthrow the liberal democratic system, declaring, “The National Assembly has become a monster undermining liberal democracy, and the nation is in a precarious state, teetering on the edge of collapse.”
He assured the public, “We will eliminate the anti-state forces and restore the country to normalcy as quickly as possible.” While acknowledging that martial law might cause some inconvenience, he promised efforts to minimize its impact on the public.
This is a developing story and will be updated.

Martial law can gave another use tho : arbitrary lockdowns
The world's governments tested it during COVID. Years ago, there were reports that the US is using emergency response to natural catastrophes as blueprints to control the citizens.
