Capitol Riot

Justice Samuel Alito is rejecting calls to step aside from Supreme Court cases involving former President Donald Trump and Jan. 6 defendants because of the controversy over flags that flew over his homes.

The Supreme Court heard arguments Thursday on whether former President Donald Trump is immune from prosecution in a federal case that is charging him with plotting to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. 

Former President Donald Trump will remain on the ballot for the 2024 election after the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously overturned a Colorado ruling attempting to bar him for his alleged role in the January 6 Capitol riot.

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear arguments in Donald Trump’s appeal of a lower court decision rejecting his claim of "absolute immunity" that would allow him to avoid facing criminal charges. 

Jonathan Daniel Pollock, Olivia Michele Pollock, and Joseph Daniel Hutchinson III were all arrested in Lake County exactly three years after the Capitol riot, according to officials.

The president called Jan. 6 a moment when "we nearly lost America — lost it all." He said the presidential race — a likely rematch with Donald Trump, who is the GOP frontrunner — is “all about" whether American democracy will survive.

A divided Colorado Supreme Court removed Trump from the state’s primary ballot, ruling that he is ineligible to be president after his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

The obstruction charge has been brought against more than 300 defendants in the massive federal prosecution following the deadly insurrection at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

House Speaker Mike Johnson says he plans to publicly release hours of footage from the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

An extremism expert testified Tuesday that the former president has a close relationship with far-right extremists and that they clearly interpreted his calls to protest the certification of President Joe Biden’s win on Jan. 6, 2021, as a call to arms.

Trump also said he'd consider pardoning former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio.

Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was sentenced Tuesday to 22 years in prison for orchestrating his far-right extremist group’s attack on the U.S. Capitol in a failed bid to stop the transfer of presidential power after Donald Trump lost the 2020 election.

Sentencing for Enrique Tarrio has been delayed until next week. Prosecutors are seeking 33 years in jail for Tarrio, a top target in one of the most important Capitol riot cases prosecuted by the Justice Department.

The indictment detailed Tuesday that when the former president couldn't persuade state officials to illegally swing the election in his favor, he and his Republican allies began recruiting a slate of fake electors in seven battleground states.

Donald Trump says he's received a letter from the Justice Department saying he's a 'target' of a probe into efforts to undo 2020 election.

A Senate committee's report says the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security downplayed or ignored “a massive amount of intelligence information” before the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S Capitol.

A California man who drove a stun gun into a police officer’s neck during one of the most violent clashes of the U.S. Capitol riot was sentenced on Wednesday to more than 12 years in prison.
