[Democratic Congressman Requests Capitol Police to Investigate Trump's Social Media Remarks] The office of U.S. Democratic Congressman Jason Crow has requested the Capitol Police to investigate Trump's social media posts, stating that the content includes 'intimidation, threats, and alarming rhetoric.' In his posts, Trump referred to Democratic lawmakers as 'traitors,' called for their 'arrest and trial,' and mentioned that 'acts of insurrection could be punishable by death.' Crow noted that after Trump published these messages, his congressional office experienced a significant increase in phone calls and emails containing violent language and threats. It is extremely rare for a congressman to request police investigation into a sitting president, and this matter raises legal disputes over whether the president is subject to the normal procedures of the criminal justice system.
