Several justices appeared to be leaning against the DOJ. “The Supreme Court seemed wary
on Tuesday of letting prosecutors use a federal obstruction law to charge hundreds of rioters involved in the Capitol attack,” the NYT reported. “The Supreme Court’s conservatives appeared skeptical Tuesday of the way federal prosecutors have deployed a felony charge devised in the aftermath of the 20-year-old Enron financial scandal against about 350 rioters convicted or accused of storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021,” reported Politico.
