Lauren Weinstein on Nostr: Supreme Court rules obstruction charges against Jan 6 rioters must prove they ...
Supreme Court rules obstruction charges against Jan 6 rioters must prove they intended to block arrival of certificates and certification, not just entered the building. This suggests various of the cases will be reopened (usually this was not the only charge) and that prosecution of Trump for this charge would proceed. Jackson joined with the conservatives on this one (6-3), while Barrett joined with the liberals in dissent.
