How does the US Congress have power to intervene in a judicial proceeding? Any constitution lawyers out there?

I’m just curious. (I favor significant reduction of their sentences. However I have not heard good reasons for overlooking their coverup.)

I agree, my first thoughts at reading this....pretty random, almost as unbelievable as a court using Rowe vs Wade to justify elective homicide

Maybe they don’t have the power, but they can cut off funds for their detention. That is how we lost in Vietnam.
