The January 6th congressional committee is nearing the end of its hearings. There
will be a big wrap-up next week in prime time, laying out the committee’s findings
and its case that then-president Donald Trump led a criminal conspiracy to try to
overthrow the government of the United States by overturning the legitimate
results of a democratic election for president.

As the weeks go by and the hearings continue, more and more Republicans and supporters of Donald Trump seem to be coming to the realization that this is serious business, that this is not just a partisan witch hunt, as Mr. Trump claims, but that there is real and ample evidence of potentially criminal wrongdoing here, by Trump and others.
