Adam Schiff says part of January 6th hasn’t gotten enough attention

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) says there’s been “one line of effort” to overturn the 2020 presidential election that Americans aren’t paying enough attention to yet.

Schiff, a member of the House committee since Jan. 6, addressed the panel’s final report in a New York Times op-ed on Thursday. The piece focused specifically on Republican lawmakers in Congress who voted to overturn the 2020 election.

Even after the Capitol Police and Metropolitan Police put down the insurrection at great cost, most House Republicans picked up right where they left off, still voting to overturn the results in key states.

A total of 147 Republican members of Congress voted to overturn the election results: 139 of 221 Republicans in the House and eight of 51 Republicans in the Senate.

The commission sent four criminal complaints against Trump to the Justice Department on Monday. In his op-ed, Schiff urged the Justice Department to “provide a form of accountability that Congress is not authorized to provide”: prosecution.

“Bringing to justice a former president who still calls for the ‘repeal’ of our Constitution is a dangerous enterprise,” Schiff wrote.

“Not doing it is much more dangerous.”

In a separate article for the Los Angeles Times, Schiff wrote that the Justice Department “must follow the standard it set at the beginning of its investigation” into the deadly riot: “Follow the evidence wherever it leads.”

“But protecting our democracy requires more than oversight, accountability and even justice,” he continued.

He called on Congress to take action to prevent “another supposed autocrat from tearing down our democratic institutions” by implementing reforms based on the committee’s findings.

“Overseeing the Jan. 6 commission was difficult, and pursuing justice may be even more difficult,” Schiff wrote, “but the steps we take to prevent another despot from undermining our democracy in the future may be even more so.” applicants and more accordingly. to all.”
