Jan. 6 Committee to Share New Evidence of Trump’s Role in Capitol Insurrection

HeadlineOct 13, 2022

The House committee investigating the January 6 insurrection is holding what could be its last public hearing today. Lawmakers are expected to share more evidence that Trump deliberately encouraged his violent supporters who attacked the Capitol, despite knowing some were armed, and refused to step in as the situation spiraled out of control. This comes as a witness in a trial for five members of the far-right Oath Keepers says the group kept a large stash of firearms in a hotel room before the Capitol riot. Democracy Now! will be streaming the January 6 hearings starting at 1 p.m. today on democracynow.org.
