Merrick Garland does NOT rule out prosecuting Trump for January 6: AG says he intends to hold 'anyone who was criminally responsible for events surrounding' Capitol riot or who interfered with the transfer of power
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Attorney General Merrick Garland did not rule out prosecuting former President Donald Trump for his role in January 6 in a new interview with NBC's Lester Holt

  • 'We intend to hold everyone, anyone who was criminally responsible for the events surrounding January 6 ... accountable,' Garland said

  • Holt pointed out to Garland that prosecuting a former president or a potential presidential candidate could 'arguably tear the country apart'

  • 'Do you have to think of things like that?' the NBC Nightly News anchor asked Garland

  • Garland spoke in vague terms, saying, 'Look, we pursue justice without fear or favor'
    That sounds more like red meat for the rubes than an actual plan for action.
