Rapper Lil Wayne is expected to be one of up to 100 people to receive last-minute commutations or pardons before US President Donald Trump leaves office this week, but WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is likely to miss out.
Multiple US media outlets have reported that Trump is preparing an expansive list to be released on Tuesday or possibly even Wednesday (US time) – the morning of Joe Biden's inauguration – but that the President has opted not to take the extraordinary step of issuing a pardon for himself or any members of his family.
