GOP congressman calls second Trump impeachment ‘the conservative vote’
Senior members of the far-right Proud Boys group are facing a new indictment on multiple charges stemming from the 6 January attack on the US Capitol, including counts of seditious conspiracy against the US government.
According to the indictment, the five defendants – among them the group’s former leader, Enrique Tarrio – conspired “to oppose the lawful transfer of presidential power by force, by opposing the authority of the Government of the United States and by preventing, hindering, or delaying by force the execution of the laws governing the transfer of power”.
Meanwhile, Fox News has decided to not air the 6 January public hearings live and instead show only “as news warrants” during its prime time shows, the network has said in a press release. The live coverage of the hearings will instead be carried on its less-viewed sister channel Fox Business.
This makes Fox News the only major news network in the US to not carry the 6 January committee live when they start this Thursday.
