For months now, an investigative committee of the US Parliament has been investigating the break-in of the Capitol, the building that houses both the Senate and the House of Representatives. More than 1,000 people were questioned, and hundreds of emails, letters, and phone records were collected. Earlier this week, the commission published the first version of its final report. In this, the authority demanded that Donald Trump be prosecuted criminally for his role in the storming.
The final report of the months-long investigation was published today. In it, the committee argues that Trump must give up all public office (and thus he is no longer allowed to become president). On Truth Social, the former president’s social media platform, Trump has called the investigation a witch hunt.
He writes: “The final report of the investigative committee, which is fiercely partisan, willfully neglects to mention that Pelosi (Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the US Parliament, ed.) ignored my recommendation that troops should be sent to D.C.” “You did not mention my peaceful and patriotic words that I used, or study the reason for the protest, which is electoral fraud,” he added.
“Creator. Award-winning problem solver. Music evangelist. Incurable introvert.”
