More than three years after the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, the Department of Justice is continuing to pursue those who participated through hundreds of aggressive prosecutions. That includes Donald Trump, whose political future and personal freedom may depend on whether a jury believes he is to blame for the violence. But The Supreme Court will hear arguments this week in a Jan. 6 case that could upend the prosecution of Donald Trump.

Whistleblowers To Further Dismantle Jan. 6 National Guard Narrative About Trump On Wednesday, whistleblowers from the Washington DC National Guard are expected to tell Congressional investigators that former President Donald Trump wanted them deployed, but an Army Secretary, Ryan McCarthy, delayed relaying this to DC National Guard Commander William Walker by at least two hours. According to the Daily Mail, at least three whistleblowers will also testify that their stories were...
As this week has brought into sharp relief, Donald Trump’s principal legal problem is that he’s facing 88 criminal counts, including an ongoing criminal trial that got underway in New York City on Monday. It’s one of four pending cases against the former president across three jurisdictions. And while these are clearly the most serious of the Republican’s legal troubles — their outcomes could, at least in theory, lead to prison sentences — the presumptive GOP nominee is simultaneously dealing...

But it wasn’t clear how the justices would rule in a case that also could affect the prosecution of former President Donald Trump, who faces the same charge for his efforts to overturn his election loss in 2020.
Former President Donald Trump is putting the Republican Party's already-imperiled House majority on a course for defeat this fall, MSNBC analyst John Heilemann argued on Friday evening.This comes as Trump boosts House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) in a joint press conference at Mar-a-Lago, all while the GOP suffers from infighting, retirements, and resignations, special election losses, and are put on the defensive by public outrage over abortion bans around the country — and as many of them...
Donald Trump has made numerous statements suggesting that he plans to pardon his supporters who've been convicted of crimes related to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. In one interview from 2022, he said he's considering "full pardons with an apology to many" if he's elected president. But a new report suggests that may be wishful thinking.
