Violent insurrectionists, loyal to President Donald Trump, storm the Capitol in Washington on January 6, 2021
AN OFFICIAL investigation into the January 6 2021 insurrection at the US Capitol said on Wednesday said that its evidence suggests former president Donald Trump and his associates may have committed crimes in their failed bid to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
Mr Trump and his associates engaged in a “criminal conspiracy” to prevent Congress from certifying Democrat Joe Biden’s victory in the Electoral College, a House of Representatives committee said in a court filing.
Mr Trump and those working with him spread false information about the outcome of the presidential election and pressured state officials to overturn the results, potentially violating multiple federal laws, the panel said.
International solidarity can ensure that Trump and his machine cannot prevail without a level of political and economic cost that he will not want to pay, argues CLAUDIA WEBBE
