Today's headlines: the House January 6th Committee released an “executive summary” of its findings and recommended criminal charges for multiple individuals, including former president Donald J. Trump himself. The Supreme Court of the United States issued a temporary order that will keep in place Title 42, the Trump-era immigration policy that has been used to turn away migrants seeking asylum. A jury in Los Angeles found disgraced movie producer Harvey Weinstein guilty of rape and other sexual offenses. Republican Representative George Santos of New York is under fire after a report in the New York Times yesterday found that he faked several key parts of his resume, education, and employment history. Finally for today, Sam Bankman-Fried made a “chaotic” court appearance in the Bahamas yesterday in which he agreed to be extradited to the United States.
