Read our privacy policy The January 6 select committee is set to release all its evidence – including transcripts of testimony – along with its final report by the end of this month, according to one of its members. We’re going to release all the information we’ve collected so it cannot be selectively edited and spun.” Confirming that “everything” would be released, Ms Lofgren declined to commit to a precise publication date, explaining that the vagaries of the official legislative printing process meant pinning one down is not possible; however, she did confirm that the report should be expected by the end of this month. The committee’s summer hearings saw the panel screen video of testimony from a variety of witnesses close to Donald Trump himself, among them former attorney general Bill Barr, former White House counsel Pat Cipollone, and Mr Trump’s daughter Ivanka. Ms Lofgren made clear that the public will be getting first sight of the report and supporting evidence at the same time as Attorney General Merrick Garland and his department – as well as Jack Smith, the independent special prosecutor recently appointed to oversee investigations into the January 6 affair and Donald Trump’s hoarding of documents at Mar-a-Lago.
