There are three good reasons why the committee would avoid making criminal referrals on Trump or anyone else. First, as Lofgren mentioned, such referrals from Congress have no legal status at DOJ. Most of such referrals from Congress, usually made by committee chairmen, have died on the department’s doorstep.

Then why the fuck would congress ever investigate anyone for anything ever? Literally what is the fucking point of not just the hearings on Jan 6, but any investigative hearings done by congress ever?

Stupid fucking country.
