January 6th Committee Presents New Evidence About The Executive Refusal To Act.
The January 6th Committee is continuing present evidence that paints government leaders as being derelict of duty.
“The January 6 committee, in its final public hearing until the fall, presented damning new evidence Thursday highlighting then-President Donald Trump’s three-hour refusal to publicly condemn the unfolding insurrection at the US Capitol or to call off the violent mob.
The primetime session – the eighth hearing so far this summer – focused on the “187 minutes” between Trump telling his supporters to march to the Capitol, and when he finally told them to “go home.”
The hearing was co-led by Rep. Elaine Luria, a Virginia Democrat, and Rep. Adam Kinzinger, an Illinois Republican. Two former Trump White House aides who resigned in the immediate aftermath of the attack – Matthew Pottinger and Sarah Matthews – testified in-person Thursday.”
The January 6th Committee is presenting a series of facts that are quite damning of leaders at the very highest levels of the government. For many Americans, the Committee is just brining to light, through and expert presentation, what they already know to be true. For others who only consume media that reinforces their political beliefs, the dereliction of duty comes as a revelation. The final history has yet to be written, the winner writes that.
