Gingrich: Garland, Jan. 6 Panel Could Go to Jail If GOP Wins
Attorney General Merrick Garland and members of the U.S. House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol could go to jail if Republicans win control of Congress in the midterm elections, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich told Fox News.
“They are running over peoples’ civil liberties,” said Gingrich, who was speaker from 1995 to 1999.
“You have both with Attorney General Garland and with this Select Committee of January 6th, people who have run amok. They are breaking the rules. They are going after people in a way which is reminiscent of the British monarchy using closed-door systems that we outlawed deliberately because we had seen it.”
