Rep. Eric Swalwell, who served as a House manager in Donald Trump s last impeachment trial, filed a lawsuit Friday against the former president, his son, lawyer and a Republican congressman whose actions he charges led to January s insurrection.
The California Democrat s suit, filed in federal court in Washington, alleges a conspiracy to violate civil rights, along with negligence, inciting a riot and inflicting emotional distress. It follows a similar suit filed by Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Mississippi, last month in an attempt to hold the former president accountable in some way for his actions Jan. 6, following his Senate acquittal.
