The House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6 Attack on the United States Capitol concluded its public inquiry after a span of 18 months on December. Nineteen, twenty-two. The House committee has recommended that the U.S. Department of Justice take legal action against the ex-President Donald Trump for his attempts to alter the outcomes of the 2020 presidential election.
