"It Was a Coup"

A federal Judge wrote in his ruling that it is "more likely than not that President Trump corruptly attempted to obstruct the Joint Session of Congress on January 6, 2021.”

U.S. District Court Judge David O. Carter in his ruling stated that "if the country does not commit to investigating and pursuing accountability for those responsible, the Court fears January 6 will repeat itself." The judge further added that "Dr. Eastman and President Trump launched a campaign to overturn a democratic election, an action unprecedented in American history. Their campaign was not confined to the ivory tower—it was a coup in search of a legal theory.”
