A federal judge says that former President Trump likely broke the law by trying to obstruct Congress from confirming Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 presidential election.
Judge David Carter wrote in a court ruling that had Trump’s plan with John Eastman had succeeded it would have “permanently ended the peaceful transition of power, undermining American democracy and the Constitution.”
CNBC reports:
“If the country does not commit to investigating and pursuing accountability for those responsible, the Court fears January 6 will repeat itself,” Carter wrote in the ruling in U.S. District Court for the Central District in California.
The judge’s stinging comments came in a decision that ordered Eastman to disclose 101 documents to the select House committee that is investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and events leading up to it.
Carter wrote that 10 other documents should not be turned over to the committee, finding that they are privileged.
Eastman wrote a memo that had detailed how Vice President Mike Pence could reject the certification of Biden’s election win by a joint session on Congress on Jan. 6, 2021.
Eastman, among other Trump allies, spoke at a rally taking place at the same time as the certification process and urged Pence to reject the results. Soon after a mob of protestors marched to the Capitol where some broke into the building.

Now that Ray Epps, et al., have been exonerated and now are invisible, the socialists can claim anything they want about the J6 rally.
Well, if we have a repeat of the stolen 2020 election, I can guarantee that we will have a repeat of Jan. 6, only this time, it will be with guns. Just as the forefathers predicted……
Trump implicitly requested that National Guard troops be stationed at the capitol building – and he was denied or ignored by all three – if the Jan 6th committee was so diligent, they would request that ALL documents and communications to and from all these involved entities be produced – but they refuse to do so even after court orders to do just that – What say Nancy and your biased committee – this could be resolved tomorrow like a lot of other issues in the US.
