Donald Trump has branded the congressional investigation into last year's US Capitol riots a "mockery of justice".
In a rambling, 12-page missive, Mr Trump said that instead of focusing on the country's larger problems, the Democrat-led panel was "a kangaroo court, hoping to distract the American people from the great pain they are experiencing".
The former US president also reiterated the same conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election that earlier in the day the congressional probe had argued were a key motivating factor for his supporters to riot.
