The report of the House of Representatives investigating the January 6 uprising is a problem for the former American president, Donald Trump. According to the report, which consists of 814 pages, the former US president is found guilty of sedition, obstruction of an official process (validation of the result of the presidential election) and conspiracy against the US State, opining that these offenses deserve prosecution from the Ministry of Justice.
According to the report, 76-year-old former President Donald Trump failed to stop his supporters from storming the Capitol as lawmakers worked to certify Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election.
