Washington. The troubles of former US President Donald Trump may increase in the coming days. After the result of the presidential election, a separate team has been formed to investigate the violence in the Capitol Building. House Democrats Speaker Nancy Pelosi has created a special congressional committee to investigate the deadly January 6 violence. Pelosi said that it is important that we should know the truth behind what happened.
According to the report of the news agency AP, Pelosi said that this investigation will be done in detail. There is no deadline for this. Pelosi did not give details about the composition of the committee. It was also not told who would lead this team. Senate Republicans last month curtailed legislation to set up an independent panel based on the 9/11 Commission to investigate.
What happened on January 6?
Former President Donald Trump did not accept defeat in the presidential election. He had made allegations of fraud in the elections held on November 3. In the midst of these allegations of Trump, his supporters stormed the Capitol building on January 6 and committed violence. The attack was carried out while Parliament was verifying Joe Biden’s presidential election victory.
Five people, including the Capital Police officer, were killed in this violence, accused of more than 400 people. More than 400 people have been indicted for crimes related to the Capitol attack.
10 Republican votes needed to pass bill
More than three dozen Republicans in the House and seven Senate Republicans said they wanted to avoid a partisan investigation Huh. He supported legislation to create a commission, similar to the commission that probed the 9/11 terrorist attacks. However, this is not enough to quell opposition from the Republican Party in the Senate, where even if all Democrats vote in favor, 10 Republican votes will be needed to pass the bill.
