Former President Donald Trump has called for criminal charges against members of the January 6 House committee, which investigated the attack on the U.S. Capitol by his supporters. This demand came in response to the four-month prison sentence handed to Steve Bannon, Trump's former White House chief strategist, for defying a congressional subpoena issued by the committee.

 

In a post on Truth Social, Trump described Bannon's sentencing as "a Total and Complete American Tragedy" and argued that the true culprits were the committee members themselves. He accused the committee of illegally deleting and destroying evidence from their investigation and urged law enforcement to indict them. Trump wrote, "The unAmerican Weaponization of our Law Enforcement has reached levels of Illegality never thought possible before. INDICT THE UNSELECT J6 COMMITTEE FOR ILLEGALLY DELETING AND DESTROYING ALL OF THEIR 'FINDINGS!' MAGA2024."

 

The January 6 committee comprised seven Democrats and two Republicans. Five of the Democratic members are still in office: Representatives Bennie Thompson, Adam Schiff, Pete Aguilar, Zoe Lofgren, and Jamie Raskin. The committee's two Republican members, Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, are no longer in Congress, with Cheney losing her reelection bid in 2022 and Kinzinger choosing not to run. Another Democratic member, Elaine Luria, also lost her reelection bid in 2022, and Stephanie Murphy did not seek reelection.

 

Trump's allegations center around claims that the committee "deleted" all of its evidence. This accusation was fueled by remarks from Representative Barry Loudermilk, the Republican chairman of the House Administration's Subcommittee on Oversight. Loudermilk reported that some evidence from the committee's investigation was not preserved, including video recordings and transcripts of witness interviews. Despite these claims, much of the committee's work was made public through an 845-page report and televised hearings, with several witness transcripts also available to the public.

 

In its final days, the January 6 committee made criminal referrals to the Justice Department, recommending that Trump face charges for his actions related to the Capitol attack. The DOJ later indicted Trump for attempting to unlawfully remain in office after his defeat in the 2020 presidential election.

 

Responding to Trump's claims, Representative Zoe Lofgren dismissed the allegations as "garbage" during an appearance on CNN. She explained that Bannon was held in contempt for not honoring a subpoena, a straightforward legal issue. Lofgren emphasized Trump's habitual disregard for the truth. Adam Kinzinger also countered Trump's claims by sharing a link to the committee's final report on social media, highlighting the public availability of the evidence.

 

Steve Bannon, after being convicted in July 2022, filed an appeal that delayed his prison sentence. However, the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia recently upheld his conviction, and federal prosecutors asked the court to enforce his sentence. On Thursday, Federal Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee, agreed with the prosecutors, marking another legal setback for Bannon.

 

Trump's latest outburst reflects his ongoing battle with the outcomes of the January 6 investigation and his efforts to shift blame away from himself and his close associates. The controversy surrounding the Capitol attack continues to be a deeply polarizing issue in American politics, influencing both legal proceedings and public discourse.

Convicted Felon Trump slurs so much these days and his worsening aphasia make in near in impossible to understand what it is he’s actually saying.

 

I’ve tried lip reading, but his mouth foaming was too much to stomach.

If he’s elected then he’ll implement the tools of the left against them. Do I agree? No. Should it be done? Sure why not, hold them down and shovel their excrements back at them.

you mean all those "tools" like EVIDENCE the "left" used against him...evidence corraborated by all sorts of documents, texts, emails, voice and video tapes and first hand testimony from trump insiders who saw and heard it themselves showing trump committing crimes? 

 

the problem with the right screaming is that they have no evidence of left breaking laws like donnie...but they sure like to whine and promote BS after BS supported by conspiracy theories and space lasers but we all eagerly await to see the real evidence not a bunch of rumours and theories... but of course facts do not matter to them as they are all still pumping the BIG LIE with zero evidence of fraud almost four years later....

Indeed the felon was convicted by 12 of his peers……

To save you fellas excess wrist and hand stress over the next 5 months or so before the November 5  election, instead of writing over & over 'a felon convicted by a jury of his peers', maybe you can just use the abbreviation FeConJuPee

The CV said after the D-Day remembrance, "Only a psycho would call soldiers suckers and losers". as Gen Kelly confirmed the CV said.

 

It's nice to see...FINALLY...some honest self-assessment and introspection by the CV.

 

Psycho it is. That's also a 'dog bites man' story, as it comes as no news to anyone. That he added the frothing at the mouth bit is a nice touch. Maybe a bit of overkill, but nice nonetheless.

 i believe it is your dear leader that is in love with putin and the dictators around the world....perhaps a bit more reading might give you the "courage" to admit the obvious....watch a few videos of dear leader telling you how much he loves dictators...he just praised erowan today in case u missed that one

Trump is indeed a convicted felon. So would be someone who is convicted of  murder or armed bank robbery. So would be someone in Florida and some other states convicted of felony littering well less than a pickup truck load.

 

Felony is felony but all felonies ain't the same.

 

**********************

So would you folks be out there proclaiming Trump is unfit tor President if he was convicted of felony littering? I'm concerned that this repetitive CV x times will have the opposite effect as to who gives a @#E@# about false bookkeeping.

The most disquieting facet of this case is that it did not pertain to: anything Trump did as president, nor anything Trump did during his current run for office, nor anything Trump did in the macabre transition process four years ago. It involved his actions nearly 10 years ago, in relation to the concealment of an alleged crime for which other prosecutors declined to ever charge the former president.

In real life, members of Congress are protected from prosecution by the Speech and Debate clause of the Constitution. Not that it matters to MAGA.

The most disquieting aspect of this case is the political attacks on the justice system by the Convicted Felon Trump.
