2021-02-1807 minJustice Matters with Glenn KirschnerLet's Talk About Two Facts Supporting Donald Trump's Criminal Responsibility for the Attack on the US CapitolThere has been much discussion about the difficulty of proving that Donald Trump acted with corrupt intent when he whipped-up an angry mob and told them to "stop" the vote certification or, as he put it, "stop the steal."
I spent 30 years prosecuting cases in courts, military and civilian, proving criminal intent. Given the available evidence, including some recent New York Times reporting about what Trump was saying and doing while the insurrectionists attacked the Capitol and hunted for Mike Pence, it's crystal clear that Donald Trump's intent was corrupt from start to finish. Now, it's time for federal prosecutors t...
