A parliamentary panel investigating the cause of the riots at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, last year, has justified former President Donald Trump to investigate allegations of fraud in the 2020 elections. I'm hearing testimony on Thursday about how I urged provincial officials. He wanted to overturn the Democratic defeat to Joe Biden.
House Select Commission Chairman Benny Thompson testified that state officials in Arizona and Georgia tried to have Mr. Trump appoint a fake on Tuesday, but failed. Said to consider Mr. Trump's "attempts to corrupt the country's highest law enforcement agencies." A voter to help him stay in office for another four years or to overturn the vote that Biden has defeated him. Investigate voters' fraudulent claims and force Justice Ministry officials to "deauthorize" election results that indicate Biden's victory in some states. There is no evidence of substantial corruption to overturn Biden's victory, like his predecessor, former prosecutor William Barr.
At the end of Tuesday's hearing in a short video clip, Richard Donohue, Deputy Attorney General of the United States from December 2020 to January 2021, said Clark's judiciary during the decline of Trump's administration. He said he would have resigned soon if he nominated the Secretary.
Thursday's hearing is this month to investigate Trump's role in facilitating an attack on the Capitol when lawmakers gather to prove President Biden's victory in the Electoral College. This is the 5th time.
Approximately 2,000 Trump supporters attacked Trump's "fight like hell" at a previous rally, attacking past law enforcement officers in the Capitol. He fought with the police, destroyed the building, and plundered the parliamentary office.
More than 800 protesters have been charged with a series of crimes, of which 300 have already been found guilty or convicted in court and imprisoned for weeks to four years or more. increase.
Trump blamed an investigative commission consisting of seven Democrats and two anti-Trump Republicans, saying his presentation was biased towards him. To date, he has falsely claimed to have been fooled by another term at the White House.
The Investigation Commission hearing was set to end on Thursday's session. The committee will announce the findings at the end of summer.
However, Democratic Party representative Jamie Raskin, a member of the committee, told reporters:
"Currently, there is evidence from a variety of sources," he said. The fact of what happened, and many people are now moving forward with information.
Some key officials of the Trump administration cooperated with the Commission's investigation. However, others repeatedly exercised their constitutional right to self-incrimination and refused to answer questions about Trump's actions and their own actions after the election and on January 6. Two former Trump advisers, Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro, worked together and were charged with disdain for Congressional accusations.
Republican Rep. Liz Cheney, Vice-Chairman of the Panel, told Trump's former White House adviser Pat Cipollone more than he already has. I asked him to answer many questions.
At the heart of Trump's post-election efforts is a bold plan to overturn the votes cast in the states where Trump was defeated, or to hire fake voters in support of Trump in the states where Biden was slightly defeated. was.
In the United States, presidents are effectively elected in separate elections in each of the 50 states, rather than a national general vote. The number of voters in each state depends on its population, with the largest states being the most influential. The rioters who attacked the Capitol on January 6 tried to prevent Biden from proving his final 306-232 victory in the Electoral College.
The House Committee cannot file criminal charges, but the Justice Department closely monitors hearings and is charged with someone, including Trump, trying to illegally reverse the election results. I'm deciding if it should be.
A prosecutor in Atlanta, the capital of Georgia, convened a grand jury investigation to investigate Trump's actions to overturn the vote in that state. Trump asked state chief election officer Brad Rafensperger to "find" 11,780 of the five million votes, one more than Biden defeated him.
The investigative commission has already heard testimony that a major Trump aide told him he lost the election, with minimal voting irregularities and Biden's electoral college. It wasn't enough to overturn the victory.
In addition, Trump was said to be illegal to unilaterally prevent Biden's victory when then Vice President Mike Pence presided over the votes of the Parliamentary Election College. ..
