AG Merrick Garland doesn’t rule out charging Trump and others in January 6 probe

Attorney General Merrick Garland isn’t ruling out charging former President Trump and others for their role in the January 6 attack on the Capitol or for attempting to interfere in the presidential election. Mick Mulvaney is the former acting chief of staff for President Trump. He joins AC360 to discuss Garland’s comments.

Plus, in Trump’s first trip back to Washington, DC since leaving office he outlined a harsh criminal justice agenda for the Republican Party saying the country needs to give the police “the respect that they deserve.” Former DC Police Officer Michael Fanone was brutally attacked by rioters on January 6 outside the Capitol and suffered a traumatic brain injury and later, a heart attack. He tells Anderson Cooper that he thinks the former president is the “least credible person in our history to deliver any remarks purporting himself to be pro-police.”
