Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) took aim at former President Donald Trump when asked about his reaction to the House Jan. 6 panel’s criminal referral of the former president to the Justice Department on Monday.
“The entire nation knows who is responsible for that day. Beyond that, I don’t have any immediate observations,” McConnell told reporters when asked about the House select committee’s findings.
The committee, led by Reps. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), recommended to the DOJ that Trump, 76, be charged with inciting or assisting an insurrection, obstruction of an official proceeding, conspiracy to make false statements to investigators, and conspiracy to defraud the US government.
The panel had said it uncovered evidence Trump pushed claims he knew were false about the 2020 presidential election in an effort to change the election’s outcome.
McConnell had previously laid blame on Trump for Jan. 6 on the Senate floor in February 2021, after the former president was acquitted of inciting an insurrection at his impeachment trial.
“There is no question that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of that day,” McConnell, who voted to acquit Trump because he was no longer in office, said.

“The entire nation knows who is responsible for that day.”
Yes. The FBI.
Electoral changes
Turtle is a king size piece of 💩
He is my senator snd that kind of reaction from him is exactly why I left the GOP last year for the 1st time in 35 years.
Yeah, telling his supporters to “march peacefully and patriotically in front of the Capitol so that your voices may be heard” is inciting an “insurrection.” Bullcrap.
Mitch the Bitch will probably be in Hell before the 2024 election.
I heard a rumor he raped a male soldier.
PELOSI IS RESPONSIBLE. SHE TURNED DOWN TRUMPS
OFFER OF TROOPS TO POLICE THE CAPITOL.
Ive seen him and Kash Patel talking about this. Tucker Carlson said last night that he knows, but couldnt say who, that there arw members in Congress who are being blackmailed.
I heard that he grabbed his private parts.
What MacIdiot!
There was NO insurrection to be responsible for.
Years ago, I went into my local Republican headquarters and read the riot act to the little twerp inside. He was an assistant to the congress critter at the time. It was when the government bailed out some insurance company that covered government employees and their pensions (can’t remember exactly what it was)
I’m about to do it again, I’m sick of these mother fockers! Problem is now I’ll get arrested because of this January 6 crap!
January 6, January 6!
Al Gore is likely a catcher and not a pitcher just like his hero McTurtle. Mitch is so ugly the only way he gets laid is my climbing in a barrel with a glory hole in it.
We do know, McConnell: Your master. Deep State.
Wow. McConnell is even more of a little c—t than I thought.
That POS continues to F you and me and everyone else.
“Team Mitch” needs to be benched for life.
