re: CAPITOL Riot; EVIDENCE & NEW Videos Show How TRUMP Attempted Coup
TRUMP Mobilizing His MAGA Allies to Defend Him Ahead of January 6 Hearings
AP. 7 JUN 2022.
Former President Donald Trump has made it clear he is looking for cover from his closest allies around the upcoming public hearings by the House select committee investigating the January 6 insurrection - and some prominent names in Congress and the Republican Party are answering the call.
Trump's team has communicated to some of his most loyal acolytes on Capitol Hill that the former president wants people vigorously defending him and pushing back on the select committee while the public hearings play out, according to GOP sources familiar with the request.
Committee members have teased that the hearings could be focused on Trump's direct role in undermining the election results. The committee has been working toward a thesis that Trump's obsession with losing the election and his peddling of false claims about the results is what laid the groundwork for the violent and deadly riot at the Capitol.
