    Trump asks Supreme Court to withhold records from House Jan. 6 committee

    Lawyers for former president Donald Trump asked the Supreme Court on Thursday to block release of his White House records to a congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

    Trump wants the justices to reverse a unanimous ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, which rejected his assertions of executive privilege and his request to keep secret roughly 800 pages of his papers. President Biden determined the material could be released to the committee.

    Trump said the high court should determine whether that is proper.

    WaPo Opinion: Here’s why a criminal referral for Trump by the Jan. 6 committee is a bad idea

    A criminal referral would be worse than unnecessary — it would be counterproductive.


    Attorney General Merrick Garland is working to restore the Justice Department’s reputation for keeping politics out of criminal prosecutions. If Congress injects itself into the criminal process, it could make Garland’s job more difficult. It would be that much easier for Trump to claim that any later prosecution was a political witch hunt and that Garland was simply carrying water for House Democrats.

    Democrats have used their political powers to engage in witch hunts even during the Trump administration. They need to all be removed from power. In any other civilized country that upholds law and order, these criminal acts would have landed Democrats in jail where there belong.

    If Democrats don't cancel neo Nazi rallies, what makes you think they'll cancel treason rallies?
