All as expected at the American Congress, where Republican senators have blocked with their vote the establishment of a commission of inquiry into the Capitol Hill of last January 6.
Instead, the initiative was supported by Democrats, who aimed to highlight the former president’s responsibilities Donald Trump and any complicity in the affair.
The vote in the Senate ended with 54 votes against the commission and 35 in favor: on balance, 6 Republicans voted in favor of the commission of inquiry, but they were not enough to reach the threshold of 60 votes that was necessary to get it approved .
The leader Dem Chuck Schumer he called the vote “a shame for the Republican Party”.
