Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin, a Republican, condemned the indictment of former President Donald Trump and accused the Justice Department of a political motivation. Youngkin also claimed that parents in Virginia know what it's like to be targeted by politically motivated actions. He has been seen as a potential candidate for the Republican nomination for president in 2024.

Lawmakers from both parties offered contrasting accounts of the conditions of pre-trial Jan. 6 defendants at the Washington, D.C. jail after a visit led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Greene claimed the defendants were being mistreated and called them "political prisoners," while Democrats who attended the visit said the defendants were being treated fairly and had access to medical care and entertainment. The visit comes amid concerns about the treatment of Jan. 6 defendants and a push to defund the "two-tiered justice system."
