According to the Jan. 6 committee, the Republican House leader tried to reach former President Donald Trump multiple times, as well as asking multiple members of Trump's family for help.
According to Kushner, Leader McCarthy was frightened on the call. I heard in his voice that he was nervous and I wanted to help. I turned the shower off, put on a suit, and rushed into the White House.
He said, "Anything you could do, I don't recall a specific ask, just something you could do." I got the feeling that the legislators in the Capitol were scared.

According to the final report, the entire White House senior staff was in favor of a presidential statement urging all rioters to leave the Capitol. Pat Cipollone was the White House Counsel at the time.
During his testimony before the committee, Vice Chair Liz Cheney asked Cipollone who he would put in that category. A long list of top staffers include Pat Philbin, Eric Herschmann, MarkMeadows and Trump's daughter. Cipollone said he couldn't think of anyone who didn't want people to leave the Capitol.
As the committee disclosed during its televised hearings, an eye witness said that Meadows told Cipollone that Trump doesn't want to do anything. Cipollone told Cheney the whole story. Cipollone said he had a conversation with MarkMeadows about what he thought should happen. I don't know if Mark said that to me. I don't recall him saying that to me, but he may have said something similar.

In the days leading up to the assault, Donald Trump suggested that 10,000 National Guard troops could be used to protect him and his people.
The committee said that Max Miller shot it down out of concern for Trump's safety.
Miller later sent a text to a Trump aide, saying, "Just happy we killed the national guard and a procession."
There is no evidence that Trump ever called on the National Guard to put down the riot at the Capitol.

According to the committee's final report, the Republican National Committee received millions of dollars in donations in the days after the 2020 election, having its most successful period of the campaign cycle.
Most of the $250 million raised by Trump and the RNC was from small donors who thought they were giving to stop the theft.
The person is Candy Woodall.
Interviews and internal documents show that the RNC knew Trump had lost and that its legal team carefully chose its language. According to the report, the RNC advised copywriters to change their language to try to steal the election. The term "rigged" or "Joe Biden lost or Trump won" should not be used by writers. They were told to use phrases like "finish the fight" and that Trump had 71 million votes.
According to the report, the RNC knew that President Trump's claims about winning the election were baseless and that additional donations wouldn't help him get a second term in office. They made several changes to fundraising copy that seemed to protect the RNC from legal exposure while still spreading and relying on President Trump's known lies.

The right-wing activists and the groups who led the charge that day had close ties to Roger Stone.

Stewart Rhodes, leader of the Oath Keepers, and the leader of the Proud Boys were among the extremists who were in a group chat called "Friends of Stone." In the days after the election, Stone said that they provided information several times a day. Please keep an eye on the F.O.S. feed so you can act quickly.
Stone invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination after being questioned about his communications with Trump and the Capitol attack.

The fifth was taken by others who were central to understanding whether Trump was involved in a conspiracy with others. Meadows, who refused to testify and was held in contempt of Congress, could have specific evidence relevant to such charges, as could other witnesses who invoked their Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination.
Flynn refused to comment on whether he believed in the peaceful transition of power in the U.S. or whether he believed the violence in January was justified.

Although the House committee heaped primary blame on former President Donald Trump, the report also offered a damning account of law enforcement's response to troubling intelligence gathered in the weeks before the attack.
The committee concluded that federal and local law enforcement authorities were in possession of multiple streams of intelligence predicting violence at the Capitol. It should have been enough for more vigorous preparations for the security of the joint session, even though some of the intelligence was incomplete.

The fact that the President of the United States would facilitate the attack on the Capitol was unprecedented in American history.
The man is Kevin Johnson.

Wait,ITCH HUNT!
There is no evidence of widespread fraud.

The committee voted to refer four criminal referrals against Trump to the Justice Department: obstruction of an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to make a false statement, and "aid and comfort" an insurrection.
The panel said there could be enough evidence to charge other Trump allies.
Four Republican lawmakers, including Kevin McCarthy, the potential next House speaker, should be investigated for disobeying the committee's subpoenas, according to the committee.
The House committee recommended the Department of Justice prosecute Trump for the Capitol attack.
The committee will recommend criminal charges to the DOJ in the new year.
The committee made a case that Trump oversaw a "sprawling, multistep conspiracy" to overturn the election and prevent the transfer of power to Joe Biden.
In October, the House panel took the extraordinary step of formally subpoenaing Trump in order to kick off a legal battle with the former president who has denounced the committee's investigation as political.
Though the committee's work has been praised by the left, it has also drawn ire from Republicans, who said the work was partisan. The end of the committee is imminent with the GOP in control of the House.
