Jan. 6 sentences under fresh scrutiny as Supreme Court fallout persists

Jan 6 sentences on trial

The resounding impact of the Supreme Court’s decision to neuter an obstruction charge used in Jan. 6 cases will face fresh scrutiny Wednesday when a rioter’s resentencing tests whether prison terms in such cases must be reduced.

Since the high court’s June decision, scores of rioters have asked judges to push back or reconsider already-imposed sentences. Prosecutors have said in court filings that a “case-by-case” analysis of the obstruction cases is underway to determine how to move forward and whether harsher sentences can stand.

Jusstice Jackson

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said in a new interview that she would consider supporting an “enforceable” mechanism of the Supreme Court’s code of ethics.

CBS’s Norah O’Donnell asked Jackson in an interview that aired on “CBS News Sunday Morning” about whether she sees a problem with President Biden backing a binding code for the justices that would enforce gift disclosures and refusals. This comes as other justices on the bench have faced scrutiny over a failure to disclose luxury gifts and trips.

Shapiro hails Pennsylvania court ruling protecting mail ballots

Mail in ballots Judge Ellen Ceisler, in the majority opinion, wrote that the “refusal to count undated or incorrectly dated but timely mail ballots submitted by otherwise eligible voters because of meaningless and inconsequential paperwork errors violates the fundamental right to vote.”

Shapiro, previously a contender to be Vice President Harris’s running mate, echoed Ceisler’s comments while praising the ruling.

“This decision is a victory for Pennsylvanians’ fundamental right to vote,” he wrote Friday on social media platform X.

“Commonwealth Court got it right: an eligible voter’s minor error of forgetting to date or misdating a ballot envelope cannot be cause for disenfranchisement,” the governor continued. ” I’ll always protect your right to a free, secure, and fair election.”

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Pennsylvania also praised the ruling as a victory.

Pro-Palestinian groups to protest Harris campaign stops, Trump debate

Pro palestinian groups to continue protestsKamala Harris' strong support for Israel as it continues its war in Gaza is fueling calls for a fresh round of protests at campaign stops, universities and public events in the weeks ahead, activists told Reuters, describing what they said was her failure to listen to pro-Palestinian voices.

Arab Americans, Muslims and their allies, shut out of a Democratic National Convention speaking slot in Chicago, plan to show up in force during Harris' debate against Donald Trump in Philadelphia on Sept. 10 and in major cities and college campuses on the Oct. 7 anniversary of the Hamas attack.
On Thursday, they interrupted Harris' speech at a Savannah, Georgia rally.
Since replacing President Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket, Harris has made it clear she will not consider cutting arms sales to Israel, one of the main asks of pro-Palestinian groups. She reiterated the position in a Thursday interview with CNN, saying "No, we have to get a (ceasefire and hostage) deal done," when asked about limiting weapons.
