No, the question is whether his punishment for the original crime can be extended beyond its original min-max range based on facts not found by a jury beyond a reasonable doubt.

Gorsuch was exactly right on this one, and Alito and company wrong.

Don't plan on this becoming a  habit, but I fully agree @Bill Cipher .
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
- J. R. R. Tolkien

Having skimmed it while watching the clown show, I would have to agree as well.

Congress doing their job...now that is funny.  They haven't done their jobs in decades!
Which is exactly why both sides of Congress 'loved' Obama. Hussein had no use for Congress. He left them out of everything and simply did everything he wanted to do on his own. And Congress loved it! They still get paid a king's ransom and they don't have to take responsibility for anything. That was Congress's version of heaven. They could pick and choose what they were 'for' or 'against' after the fact with no repercussions.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.
