The Justice Department delivered part of special counsel Jack Smith’s report to Congress early Tuesday morning, explaining his charging decisions related to the probe into now-President-elect Donald Trump’s alleged efforts to subvert the 2020 election leading up to and during the attack on the U.

When Trump lost in 2020, the report said, "he resorted to a series of criminal efforts to retain power." Smith placed the blame for the violent Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol "squarely at Mr. Trump’s feet," The New York Times said.
