Tuesday morning the fallout continues after that decisive move by the House's January 6th Select Committee. The panel wrapped up its sweeping 18-month-long investigation by issuing four unprecedented criminal referrals against a former president. Urging the Justice Department to prosecute former president Donald Trump for a multi-part conspiracy obstructing an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to make a false statement, and inciting an insurrection. The panel made up of two Republicans and seven Democrats used a video montage to highlight some of the most damning evidence they uncovered against Trump. From lies about the 2020 election to sworn testimony from his own allies alleging for 187 minutes, Trump ignored urgent calls to stop the January 6th violence.
