Trump’s mysterious last recorded phone call before the Jan. 6 riot was to an ‘unidentified person’

Raw Story  

The last phone call Donald Trump made before the Jan. 6 insurrection began was with an "unidentified person," according to White House call logs. The call records show Trump spoke to allies Steve Bannon and Rudy Giuliani before 9 a.m. and then returned a call from chief of staff Mark Meadows before instructing the operator to call then-vice president Mike Pence at 9:02 a.m. Bannon asked Trump during their one-minute call whether Pence was coming for a breakfast meeting, where he hoped he could be pressured to stop the certification of Joe Biden's win, according to two people familiar with the conversation, but Trump said the vice president would not be coming to the White House after their heated meeting the previous evening in the Oval Office. Trump agreed to call Pence again and ask him to delay certification, and the call logs show he and Bannon spoke again for seven minutes starting at 10:19 p.m. RELATED: Over 7 hours of disappearing Trump phone records makes Nixon's tapes 'look like nothing': Harvard law professor The final call with Pence was not listed in the records, although multiple sources close to both men say they spoke by phone in the late morning, before the "Stop the Steal" rally, and the vice president reportedly enraged Trump by stating he would not block certification. The call logs also show Trump spoke Jan. 6 with election lawyers, White House officials, outside allies including then-Sen. David Perdue, conservative pundit William Bennett and Fox News host Sean Hannity.
