Democratic representative Eric Swalwell was one of the House managers arguing that Donald Trump should be convicted in the Senate for sparking the deadly riots in the capital on January 6th.

Take that house.

Take it down.

So the mob continued to fight.

While he and other Democrats failed to win over enough Republicans to find the former president guilty, the California congressman has turned to federal court to make his case.

In a lawsuit filed in Washington, Swalwell claims Trump and his allies lied to supporters falsely claiming the election was stolen.

I believe Donald Trump, I believe this election was stolen and exhorted them to quote, fight like hell to overturn the election results, Swalwell alleges.

The capital riot was a direct and foreseeable consequence of these lies, and the insurrection of January 6th was in direct response to calls for violence.

At a rally earlier that day, The suit names Trump, Trump's attorney Rudy Giuliani, Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr.

And Republican Congressman Mo Brooks, all of whom addressed a crowd of supporters that later marched on Congress quote.

As such, the defendants are responsible for the injury and destruction that followed.

The suit claims more than 300 people have so far been charged with crimes relating to the capital attack.

Politico on Friday reported the FBI arrested a Trump appointee in Virginia who served in the State Department on charges stemming from the attempted insurrection.

The mob continued to grow continued to beat the officers.

Swalwell is the second lawmaker to see Trump over the insurrection.

Trump spokesman Jason Miller said in a statement that Swalwell quote is a low life with no credibility.

We won the election twice.

I mean, you know, I think the former president has continued to falsely claim he won the 2020 presidential election.
