Charges coming for Trump? House committee to wrap up Jan. 6 investigation
The House committee investigating the Capitol riot will make its final public presentation Monday about the unprecedented effort by Donald Trump to overturn the results of the presidential election he lost in 2020. The committee has called it an “attempted coup" that warrants criminal prosecution from the Justice Department. Brie Jackson joins #WakeUpCLT To Go from Washington, where NBC has learned the committee is expected to make three criminal referrals against Trump and several of his allies for their actions on the infamous day. The FBI has joined the search for a missing 11-year-old girl in Cornelius, North Carolina. Madalina Cojocari's parents were arrested in connection with the girl's disappearance Saturday. Tradesha Woodard has the latest on the case, including an interview with a former FBI agent who says the timeline of events doesn't add up, considering Madalina was reported missing 22 days after her parents claimed to have last seen her. Argentina won a thrilling World Cup final Sunday, defeating France 4-2 in a penalty kick shootout. Despite a hat trick from France's star forward, Lionel Messi led Argentina to victory with two goals of his own, capping his once-in-a-generation career with an elusive World Cup title. Is he the greatest ever? Plus, the Carolina Panthers are still alive in the NFC South race despite a dismal 24-16 home loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. We hear from interim coach Steve Wilks about the loss and how his team can regroup as it prepares for the home stretch.
