Trump And Allies Sued By Capitol Police Officers ‘Violently Assaulted’ In Jan 6 Riot | Forbes
Former President Donald Trump, his reelection campaign and far-right groups and operatives in his orbit are facing down yet another legal challenge over their culpability in the January 6 attack on the Capitol, this time from Capitol Police officers who say they were “violently assaulted” in the riot. Trump has already come under a mountain of scrutiny for his alleged role in inciting the attack, in which hundreds of his supporters, emboldened by his election fraud claims, sought to stop Congress from certifying President Joe Biden’s election victory by besieging the Capitol. In addition to being impeached by the House in January, the January 6 panel is now seeking a deep trove of records from the Trump White house as part of a comprehensive probe into the attack. Trump is also being sued by Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) over the attack.
