How the Jan 6 committee came to this moment

The decision by the January 6 committee to refer former President Trump to the Department of Justice on four criminal charges is a dramatic and historic one. Following the final hearing, Trump – the only declared Republican contender for the 2024 presidential election – offered a defiant response, claiming “These folks don’t get it that when they come after me, people who love freedom rally around me. It strengthens me. What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger.” So how did the committee reach its decision? And what are the consequences for the former president? Correspondent Paula Reid walks us through this unprecedented moment in American politics.
