At least 33 January 6 defendants who were pardoned by President Trump have since been charged, arrested or convicted of new crimes, according to Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee who released two new reports Tuesday on the fifth anniversary of the insurrection.

Don't let this Jan 6th point get lost:
Jack Smith testified to Congress he had "proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election."
In other words, he could prove in court that Trump attempted a coup.

"At this point, Democrats in Congress need to do more than just move to impeach Trump. They should be calling for the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate Trump for his crimes." ⚖️
If the world does not stand up to Trump now, he will continue to wage military attacks on other countries to steal their resources. History tells us appeasement of a fascist like Trump will only empower him. He only understands force. My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-shou...
Trump should not just be impeached—he must be prosecuted by the International Criminal Court!
