A Democratic lawmaker filed a lawsuit on Tuesday accusing former President Donald Trump and lawyer Rudolph Giuliani of conspiring to incite a violent riot at the U.S. Capitol.
The lawsuit was filed by Representative Bennie Thompson, a Democrat who chairs the Homeland Security Committee, in U.S. District Court in Washington.
“The insurrection was the result of a carefully orchestrated plan by Trump, Giuliani and extremist groups like the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys, all of whom shared a common goal of employing intimidation, harassment and threats to stop the certification of the Electoral College,” according to a lawyers’ statement.

Insurrection? please....
No standing.......................
Ahem. Scuse me, but can you say Discovery?
I knew you could.
Joseph Goebbels in blackface...
Does he have standing to do this?
Guess he missed the trial results.
What standing?? Seems a politically stupid stunt.
This is harrassment. Time to go offensive against the bullies from donkey land.
That explains it.
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie's got the Mitts.
He's an electric boob, he wears a mohair suit,
You know I read it in a magazine, oh-ho.
Bennie's got the Mitts.
They will continue to harangue, accuse, lie and create excuse after excuse after excuse to attack and persecute Trump until he’s dead.
Then, they’ll go after his family.
Outrageous.
Massa Sheckie and Nanzi's lawnjockey clown has got his marching orders...
Taking bets the case is assigned to Emmett Sullivan.
They will continue to harangue, accuse, lie and create excuse after excuse after excuse to attack and persecute Trump until he’s dead.
Then, they’ll go after his family.
Outrageous.

Trump can afford the lawers to handle this.
...and hopefully I am right (haven’t seen any evidence of it yet though) that as soon as Trump lost the election and the crap started coming down, that he had people preparing suits of his own. Go on the offense, not just over the election, but also those who slandered him.
We got Nancy’s laptop.
Time to depose Nancy and Chuck
And that’s why Trump thought Antifa was behind it, according to Dems during last day of impeachment?
He stepped down and retired.
I was just thinking about the collection of Satanic psychopaths we have in our “hallowed halls” of government, how outraged they were with their fists shaking at heaven, tears poring down their faces, putting barbed wire and thousands of troops around themselves. They run when nobody is chasing them.
I’m sure most American could care less if they were walled off forever.
Also, there is revenge. He must have some good dope on selected strategic players he can drop at an opportune time that will destroy them. Politics that way is no fun but the Dems made them the rules.
Seems ripe for a SLAPP suit, but IANAL (I Am Not A Lawyer).
