.DeanObeidallah: Attorney General Garland promised America accountability for Jan. 6. It's past time to deliver.
that the presidential election was filled with fraud — despite no evidence to back that up — and then “leave the rest to me.” There was also Trump’s extreme pressure on then-Vice President Mike Pence to not certify the 2020 election results despite zero evidence of widespread fraud. His plan was to then ask GOP-controlled state legislatures in swing states to corruptly overturn the election in his favor.
for MSNBC Daily by former federal prosecutor and current MSNBC legal analyst Glenn Kirschner, who noted the crimes Trump could be charged with, such as “obstructing official proceedings.”:"I understand that this may not be the answer some are looking for. But we will and we must speak through our work.”
But how long can justice be delayed? If Garland waits to charge Trump until the midst of the 2022 midterm campaign or after Trump announces a 2024 run for president, then it will look horribly political, which, ironically, is what Garland is trying to avoid with his Department of Justice.who attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6 in an attempt to prevent President Joe Biden from being certified as the winner of the 2020 election.
That may sound over the top to some. But it’s not. Our republic hangs in the balance. If Trump’s attempted coup and his alleged role in the Jan. 6 attack goes unpunished, Trump — or others like him — could in the future follow that same playbook. And, if law enforcement fails to hold them criminally accountable, they will keep doing so until they finally succeed.
