prison for, for a long time pie by the way. that is the new congressional case against donald trump laid out in public with this new material and this excerpt from this january 6 report. you heard congressman raskin go through and the last that he mentioned is by far the most serious. in fact let s run just that back. or gives aid and comfort to those engaged in the insurrection. aid or comfort to those engaged in insurrection. and in this case, those engaged in insurrection were the individuals that donald trump recruited and summoned to washington and supported and is now also publicly vowing to pardon. this goes way beyond that old seemingly quaint talk about a speech inciting a riot. if you followed the second trump impeachment, as we did around here, you may remember there was a lot of talk about incitement and words and free speech and can you give a speech like that.

makes the final call. it s something we ve discussed on this program and really throughout the day. the subtext of the report of what they did today, it s all about merrick garland. the road map uses legal language to bear down on what trump knew, the criminal mindset, which is a requirement for convictions and bears down on what trump caused. because the more serious charges require more than a pile of mistakes or even irresponsible leadership. they require proving trump caused or aided the insurrection, which brings us to a line that really jumps out in the new material. congress states the conclusion of the central cause of january 6 was one man, trump. the same passage says none of the events of the january 6 incident would have happened without him and that he was personally involved in the attack and, thus, the most serious recommended charge aiding insurrection is on him because he s involved. the blueprint stating trump intended to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power, and th
