The Justice Department says former President Donald Trump can be sued by injured Capitol Police officers and Democratic lawmakers over the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

FILE - In this Jan. 6, 2021, file photo, President Donald Trump speaks during a rally protesting the electoral college certification of Joe Biden as President in Washington. Trump can be sued by injured Capitol Police officers and Democratic lawmakers over the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, the Justice Department said Thursday, March 2, 2023, in an ongoing federal court case testing the limits of executive power.

In the separate investigation into Trump and his allies' efforts to overturn the election results, special counsel Jack Smith has subpoenaed former Vice President Mike Pence, who has said he will fight the subpoena. The lawsuits, filed by Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., officers James Blassingame and Sidney Hemby, and later joined by other House Democrats, argue that Trump and others made “false and incendiary allegations of fraud and theft, and in direct response to the Defendant’s express calls for violence at the rally, a violent mob attacked the U.S. Capitol."

Yawn

If he is sued, then Pelosi needs to be sued as well. She is the one who didn’t allow additional police officers on scene.

Why isn't this in the news?!

They didn't steal the election...they just used their power to cause hate and confusion. Then made it easy for people who have no information to vote for the 'good guy' 👍 don't believe me? Look into what they did the Sanders vs Hillary the election before. Domesticated humansb😉

And he should be. He encouraged it. And he sure didn't stop it.

The tOtAllY noN-paRtIsAn DoJ encourages someone else to try to 'get him this time.'😆

They will never stop trying to pin something on him AND you KSAT, will never stop being a shill for the left.

Now take the fascist traitor to prison.

I hope so!

They've been 'suing' him since he took office. Yet nothing has happened. When are dems gonna give up on this guy. Why y'all so mad he won?

Ksat Noone cares...look at your likes 👍 maybe promote other things when news week gets slow instead of posting worthless things.

Good

Of course the DoJ says that. They also say Catholics are extremist, and dangerous to national security.

DEM DOJ/FBI Set-up

And he should be.

Fk Trump

Change the rules when you can’t stop the man.😂🤣😂
