What The Jan. 6 Committee Has Accomplished So Far

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING WASHINGTON ― It was obvious on Jan. 6, 2021, that President Donald Trump had incited a riot at the U.S. Capitol. “He knew he had lost the election but he made the deliberate choice to ignore the courts, to ignore the Justice Department, to ignore his campaign leadership, to ignore senior advisers and to pursue a completely unlawful effort to overturn the election.” Trump’s intent was plain, Kinzinger said: “Ignore the rule of law and stay in power.” The president’s scheme to remain in office stretched from state legislatures to the top of the Justice Department. Richard Donoghue, former acting deputy attorney general, told the House's Jan. 6 select committee about former President Donald Trump's efforts to elevate an ally to head the Justice Department. In video testimony, former Trump lawyer Eric Herschmann recalled saying Clark’s proposal was nuts: “The best I can tell is the only thing you know about environmental and elections challenges is they both start with E. And based on your answers tonight, I’m not even certain you know that.” Trump ultimately backed down from appointing Clark after a threat of mass resignations from Donoghue and other senior Justice Department officials. The committee also aired a documentary filmmaker’s footage of Roger Stone, an informal Trump adviser, saying “fuck the voting, let’s get right to the violence” the day before the election.
