Schiff: ‘Sufficient evidence’ to criminally charge Trump over efforts to overturn election

Dramatic statement comes one day before January 6 panel set to release outline of its investigative report on US Capitol attack

California congressman Adam Schiff said Sunday that he believes there is “sufficient evidence” to criminally charge Donald Trump in relation to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

Schiff’s dramatic statement on CNN’s State of the Union came one day before the House January 6 select committee to which he belongs is poised to release an outline of its extensive investigative report on the US Capitol attack, which has been linked to nine deaths, including the suicides of traumatized law enforcement officers.
