With former Traitor’s second impeachment trial in the country’s rearview mirror, several criminal and civil investigations into his conduct are coming into focus.
The Senate on Saturday acquitted Trump of inciting the deadly, insurrectionist attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. But the former president has
reportedly expressed concerns about the potential of facing charges related to the riot.
Senate Minority Leader
Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), one of the 43 GOP senators to vote to acquit Trump, in a floor speech after the trial ended said Trump was responsible for inciting the violence and could face criminal prosecution. (McConnell said he voted to acquit because he didn’t believe the Senate had the power to convict a former president, even though the upper chamber voted days earlier that it does.)
