Note: Trump’s Georgia co-defendants are charged under state law. The president can’t pardon people for state crimes.

President Trump is demanding that the Justice Department pay him about $230 million in compensation for the federal investigations into him.
Whether he gets paid will ultimately be up to DOJ's second-in-command, who was recently his personal lawyer.
