Are Garland and the DOJ Ready for Those Trump Referrals?
With the referral of former President Donald Trump to the Department of Justice on at least four criminal charges, the crescendo was reached for the much-heralded House Select Committee on January 6 opus.
This was a first in the long history of the U.S. Congress that a criminal referral for a former or current U.S. president was sent to the DOJ.The final hearing of the committee was like the last stanza of a well-tuned symphony, where all the movements came together for one grand finale.
As the members spoke, you could hear the cymbals crash, the drumbeats racing, and a crowd rising to its feat.No orchestra or performance could match the sheer brilliance of the January 6 committee’s investigation.
It was remarkable what those nine members did over the last 18 months. Some of the testimony they were able to garner was breathtaking, frightening, and downright repugnant.
