Adam Kinzinger Dares Trump To Arrest Him: 'Stop Pretending Like You're Tough'
HuffPost
Trump declared Sunday that many of former President Joe Biden's pardons are "VOID" due to unverified claims that he used an autopen to sign them.
Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), who was one of only two Republicans on the Jan. 6 committee that investigated President Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 election, is daring Trump to criminally charge him — as a recent rant suggested he might.
Kinzinger was among many people former President Joe Biden pardoned before leaving office in January, but following a report earlier this month from a right-wing group alleging the pardons were signed by an autopen, Trump declared Sunday they were “VOID.”
Kinzinger, a frequent critic of Trump’s, dared him Monday on CNN to take the next step.
“First off, I’m trying to figure out what he’s trying to distract from, ’cause that’s what all this is — always a distraction to try to get people’s attention,” he told Jake Tapper. “Or maybe he hasn’t felt like he’s gotten enough attention. But look, Jake. It’s like, bring it on.”
The Oversight Project, a branch of conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation, cast doubt on social media earlier this month over the validity of documents it claims Biden had signed electronically. Those documents included preemptive pardons for members of the House committee that investigated the U.S. Capitol riot in 2021.
