January 6 committee recommends charges for Trump

The Democrat-led panel has urged the Justice Department to prosecute the ex-president for “insurrection”

The Democrat-led January 6 committee agreed on Monday to make criminal referrals against former President Donald Trump. The panel recommended that Trump be charged with defrauding the US, making false statements, and inciting an “insurrection” on Capitol Hill last January.

The committee, made up of five Democratic members of Congress and two Republican opponents of the former president, voted unanimously to adopt a report recommending the charges.
