Sen. Dick Durbin says he believes Pres. Biden’s nominee for AG could look into conspiracy charges surrounding former Pres. Trump's potential involvement in the Capitol riot probe.

On Jan. 6, rioters coming from a pro-Trump rally broke into the U.S. Capitol, resulting in deaths, injuries, arrests and vandalism.Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill.

“I think morally, politically, historically," Durbin said."I think what I've read so far, there is clarity in connecting President Donald Trump with provoking and inciting that mob to its violence.” “What are we doing about this rise in domestic terrorism? I have been pushing this issue long before January 6, because I can see it happening in Charlottesville and many other places, where groups inspired by white nationalist, white supremacist and far-right leanings, were becoming more militant and brazen in their activity,” he added.

“They are also in the startup mode, and a new president right off the bat has to show his skills in dealing with Congress to put together his team, his Cabinet...I have asked in the most general way, whether some of these Republicans were consulted. And the White House has said it'd become increasingly difficult to get through the staff to the member,” he said.“So I don't know where the blame lies. But I will just say, the bottom line is this.

I want to know when representative Mike Nearman is going to be prosecuted for opening the door to the capital building land inviting the insurrectionists to come in!

If Durham doesn’t prosecute FBI agents and inform us on high level Democrats, that was in on this Russia, scam, that was designed to bi-pass our democracy in 2016, to oust a sitting President, this would mean there’s a secret government.

is this lying journalist on your books ?

Of course, but now is not a good time to bring it up. It would be nice to get as many votes as possible, then prosecute the traitor.

well at least Durbin has the appropriate first name!

U think we know

“Could?” “Should” is the correct word.

Well i fired the sheriff for sending it back and i fired the state cop for not delivering.

😂😂😂 what a bunch of 🤡🤡!

Trump should be charged with insurrection.

🎯 No shit dick! 💯

Like they didnt want anything from anyone.

Any AG should look into this biggest attack on our lawmakers and Democratic processes and the investigation should go wherever the evidence takes them. If this doesn't happen, it's an invitation for traitors to try to overthrow a democratically elected government again.

It’s just so obvious that this insurrection goes all the way to the top level of USA: Trump’s replacement of top-official at Pentagon with his loyalists, the pre-meeting the night before at Trump Hotel, the people around Trump and their words and actions in the weeks before etc

He can believe something all he wants but DoJ won’t bring a base unless they’ve got solid evidence. All we can do is wait and see what happens.

Biden will leave that decision up to his AG once confirmed. Biden and Harris are busy, bringing back the soul of America.

Better process that grammy on the return.

Heck yeah that guy just thinks he is unstoppable ridiculous..he is just another man who needs to be held accountable for any and if all crimes.
