Still, the current data marks the lowest number
of arrests since Jan. 17, 2021, NPR reports. .
Last week, President Biden touted a 25% decrease
in border arrests since the order took effect, .
which means they've
dropped a lot more since then.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has called the executive order a "tremendous success.".
We indeed have seen a tremendous
success early on, and I should emphasize
that it is early on in our implementation
of the president’s proclamation and
our accompanying regulation, Alejandro Mayorkas, to CNN.

Supreme Court Rules That , Some Jan. 6 Defendants, Were Improperly Charged.
NPR reports that the United States Supreme Court voted to limit which defendants accused of taking part in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot can be charged by federal prosecutors.
The decision also casts doubt on two out of
the four felony counts in former President
Donald Trump's election subversion indictment.
According to conservative Chief Justice John Roberts,
the court ruled that the U.S. government must prove , “that the defendant impaired the availability or integrity
for use in an official proceeding of records, documents,
objects, or other things used in an official proceeding.”.
NPR reports that prosecutors relied
on a key criminal statute to prosecute
over 350 participants of the Capitol riot.
The statute makes it a crime to alter or
destroy official documents, or to otherwise
obstruct or impede official proceedings.
Roberts wrote that the statute was
not meant to broaden the meaning of
the law to make it a catchall provision. .
The decision will impact other cases related
to Jan. 6, many of which will have to be
resentenced, retried or defendants will be released. .
NYU law professor Ryan Goodman authored
a study that found only 346 of the 1,417 people
charged in connection with the Capitol riot
were charged under the obstruction statute.
The study also found that 71 people are still
awaiting trial on the obstruction charge, but over
half of them are also charged with another felony.
NPR points out that if found guilty of other felony charges,
the sentencing judge is still allowed to use the charge of
obstruction to determine the length of their sentence.

An in-house evidentiary hearing fined Jarkesy $300,000,

the power to delegate such authority to the SEC.

On June 21, the Supreme Court upheld a law that keeps people with domestic violence restraining orders against them from owning firearms, NBC News reports. .
The vote was 8-1. Justice Clarence Thomas was the only one who dissented. .
Chief Justice John Roberts wrote
the Supreme Court's majority opinion,
stating that since America was founded.
"our nation's firearm laws have included
provisions preventing individuals who threaten physical harm to others from misusing firearms.".
The provision in the latest case "fits comfortably within this tradition," Roberts wrote. .
Attorney General Merrick Garland
applauded the ruling, .
saying that it "protects victims by
keeping firearms out of the hands of dangerous individuals who pose a threat to their intimate partners and children.".
Erich Pratt, senior VP of Gun Owners of America, said that while the man who brought the case to the Supreme Court,
Zackey Rahimi, is a "dangerous individual,".
the decision "will disarm others who have never actually committed any domestic violence."
