DC attorney general, Karl A. Racine calls on Trump to order his supporters to immediately “cease and desist” after invading the U.S Capitol building

Karl A. Racine, the Attorney General for the District of Columbia called on President Donald Trump to order his supporters to immediately “cease and desist” after they invaded the U.S Capitol building to stop President-elect Joe Biden’s certification.

 

Reacting to protesters breaching the US Capitol Building, Racine issued a statement saying:

 

“We call on President Trump to immediately tell his supporters, who are trampling on the District of Columbia and have breached the U.S. Capitol, to cease and desist and return from whence they came in a peaceful manner.

 

The United States of America is the world’s greatest democracy, and that rests on a peaceful transition of power.

 

We urge President Trump to do what he has not yet done, but what he must do: order his supporters to leave the District of Columbia and fully embrace the transition of power to President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.

 

In the midst of this unrest, all District residents must remain at home. Under no circumstances should anyone travel downtown nor be in the vicinity of federal buildings.”
