“This is deadly serious. This is American democracy. This story deserves more attention. It’s a primetime story, but it’s not a one-and-done special movie. This is real life. This is democracy under the microscope.” – Robert Costa, Investigative Reporter, CBS News
NEXT HEARING: Monday, December 19, at 1 p.m. Eastern
The House January 6th Committee, at its public hearing on Monday, is expected to vote to refer criminal charges to the Justice Department against former President Donald Trump and others involved in the insurrectionist attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.
The House Committee is expected to vote to refer to the Justice Department at least three criminal charges against former President Trump, according to Politico: insurrection, obstruction of an official proceeding, and conspiracy to defraud the United States government.
The Committee’s final report, based on its extensive 18-month investigation, will be released on Wednesday, December 21.
“[T]he new report is expected to add vivid new details of that effort, particularly about the cast of enablers that facilitated Trump’s gambit — from Republican Members of Congress to a team of lawyers pushing fringe theories to shadowy operatives awash in conspiracy theories. The panel also plans to formally adopt a conclusion that Trump violated the criminal insurrection statute by providing ‘aid and comfort’ to the mob that stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.” (Politico)
