Trump, who faces criminal charges for his actions in the lead-up to the attack on the U.S. Capitol, said Jan. 6 defendants were "convicted by a very tough system."
Gregory Yetman was an enlisted military police officer when he assaulted members of law enforcement with chemical spray during the attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Tyler Bradley Dykes, who prosecutors say performed a Nazi salute during the U.S. Capitol attack, was sentenced to more than four years in federal prison.
Jacob Chansley should not get possession “of a spear and a helmet used to project strength" during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, federal prosecutors wrote.
Derek Nelson, a former Marine, admitted he "came to D.C. prepared for the possibility of violence" and "attempted to body-check" an officer’s shield during the Capitol attack.
The conservative majority's decision will likely set off hearings to determine what allegations in Trump’s federal interference case are official acts and thus potentially immune.
The ruling could soon affect 27 defendants who are serving a prison sentence solely for a felony conviction of obstruction related to the attack on the Capitol.
“They asked me to go make a speech,” Trump said of his role on Jan. 6 before falsely claiming that some Capitol rioters were "ushered in by the police.”
Jan. 6 rioter Anthony Mastanduno was arrested after Donald Trump was arrested in his federal election interference case, but the two cases took much different paths.
