Update: The January 6 Committee approved criminal referrals against Trump.
It will ultimately be up to US Attorney General Merrick Garland whether or not to charge Trump.
NBC News reported:
The House Jan. 6 committee voted Monday to recommend the Justice Department pursue a batch of criminal charges against former President Donald Trump for his role in an effort to overturn the 2020 election and the fomenting of a deadly mob at the Capitol.
The select committee also took aim at Trump’s top allies — on and off Capitol Hill — who worked with the 45th president to block certification of Democrat Joe Biden’s election victory and illegitimately keep Trump in power.
“We understand the gravity of each and every referral we are making today, just as we understand the magnitude of the crime against democracy that we describe in our report,” said Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., who led the Jan. 6 subcommittee that examined referrals. “But we have gone where the facts and the law lead us, and inescapably they lead us here.”
The Jan. 6 panel also issued a criminal referral to the Department of Justice for conservative attorney John Eastman, who the committee says was the architect of the scheme to pressure then-Vice President Mike Pence to reject states’ electoral votes on Jan. 6 and have fake electors submitted to the Congress instead.

Boy, they better hurry. They only have a couple of weeks left
If that was the “cut line”, don’t these corruptocrats know that they are all far below the cut line?
Who will charge Garland?
Here is my shocked face.
I am sooooo surprised.
The only way to make this legitimate is to have all the participants wear clown costumes, then they are what they appear, clowns.
What could go wrong?
So, they really want this to go to trial?
Bring it.
After they arrest Eric Holder.
aha!
They no doubt want to want to direct the referral to Jack Smith, the special counsel
100% outside the pervue of Congress. Separation of powers prohibits this. Nothing more than a clown show kangaroo court by low IQ grandstanders. Should Garland proceed with this he is a traitorous co conspirator.
WTF ever losers.
It’s a referral based on a made for TV show trial that had no opposition in its construct or operation nor any cross examination
It will go no where
Eat a bag of dicks...
“Boy, they better hurry. They only have a couple of weeks left”
They completed their job.
Don’t tell me, it was unanimous. Lol.
Thanks. Great video.
The 2016 coup continues.
