10 Democratic members of Congress join lawsuit against Donald Trump over Jan 6 Capitol riot

At least 10 Democratic members of Congress have joined a lawsuit against Donald Trump for his role in the January 6 riot at the US Capitol.

Three months after hundreds of supporters of the then president stormed the Capitol building in an effort to “stop the steal” and prevent the election Joe Biden being certified, close to a dozen members of the House of Representatives who were there have joined the legal action against Mr Trump.
