Fox News
Rep. Adam Kinzinger, a six-term Republican congressman representing Illinois, received a hand-written letter from 11 family members disowning him over his opposition of former President Donald Trump, Fox News has confirmed.
It was dated Jan. 8, two days after rioters stormed the U.S. Capitol, forcing lawmakers into hiding and temporarily delaying Congress’ certification of Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory. Kinzinger called for the 25th Amendment to be used to remove Trump from office before Inauguration Day, and later was one of 10 Republicans to join House Democrats in voting to impeach him. Trump was ultimately acquitted by the Senate, on Saturday, but seven Republican senators voted to convict him.More Related News
