Democrats are pressurising US president-elect Joe Biden to investigate and prosecute outgoing President Donald Trump, his allies and enablers for inciting mob to indulge in criminal conduct as y breached law and order by storming into Capitol building. It comes after House prepares to pursue impeachment charges against Trump next week. Dems appealed, that as President-elect Biden takes office on Jan. 20, he must ask Department of Justice to press criminal charges against President Trump, according to several media reports. "I was t on investigate-and-prosecute train before yesterday," Kathleen Sullivan, said a former chair of New Hampshire Democratic Party. She furr added that undermining  foundations of democracy and Constitution is a crime that cant be igred.

In a virtual interview with National Association of Black Journalists and National Association of Hispanic Journalists, presumptive Democratic presidential minee answered that question very carefully and significantly. Biden said that sitting president investigating outgoing administration comes with huge legal and political implications. He told reporters that Presidency wasn’t about “settling scores” and any such action might furr divide country. Separately, in a televised interview with NPR's Lulu Garcia-Navarro, Biden said, " Justice Department is t president's private law firm. attorney general is t president's private lawyer. I will t interfere with Justice Department's judgment of wher or t y think y should pursue prosecution of anyone that y think has violated law.”
