10 more Congress members join lawsuit accusing Trump, Giuliani, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers of Capitol riot conspiracy

Ten more Democratic members of Congress have joined a federal lawsuit accusing former President Donald Trump, his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani and several right-wing extremist groups of conspiring to incite the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol complex riot.
The suit, first filed by Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., and the NAACP, accuses the defendants of violating a federal law, which first used to target the Ku Klux Klan, by sparking the violence with the goal of preventing Congress from confirming the election of President Joe Biden.
In addition to Trump and Giuliani, the suit names the extremist groups the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys and Warboys as defendants
