Representative Adam Kinzinger, an Illinois Republican, called on Christian leaders who have pushed President Donald Trump s baseless claims of widespread voter fraud to admit their mistakes, suggesting this was necessary to lead their followers to the truth.
Hundreds of Trump s supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol last Wednesday as Congress convened to certify the election victory of President-elect Joe Biden. At a rally earlier in the day, Trump had urged the rioters to march to the Capitol and fight as he continued to push unfounded claims of widespread voter fraud. These baseless allegations have been thoroughly litigated, with more than 50 lawsuits brought by Trump and his supporters failing in state and federal courts.
