Op-Ed: Adam Schiff: What comes after the Jan. 6 committee report

LA Times  

This week, the House Jan. 6 committee conducted its last hearing and issued its final report. It is on the basis of this evidence — not politics — that we have referred former President Trump to the Justice Department for potential prosecution for four offenses: two involving conspiracy charges, another concerning his obstruction of the joint session of Congress, and the most serious, covering his role in aiding and assisting the insurrection. In the committee report, we laid out several steps that Congress must take to prevent another would-be autocrat from tearing down our democratic institutions and stopping the peaceful transfer of power. The Jan. 6 insurrection was not just a reaction to Trump’s “Big Lie” alleging massive fraud, it was also an assault on our institutions by white nationalist groups bent on supporting a president entirely sympathetic to their cause. Politics House Jan. 6 committee releases 34 transcripts from investigation Transcripts show the roadmap of the investigation and involve several major players in Trump’s attempts to stay in power, including California lawyer John Eastman.
