Although those closest to Trump have been trying to claim executive privilege and slow down the process in the courts, lower level staffers lack the resources to fight the subpoenas and are talking to the committee.

The Jan 6 committee is collecting even more evidence that the attack on the Capitol was all part of Trump's plan to overturn the election. Sources have spoken out about the fact that Trump called aides and lieutenants right before the attack in order to stop the certification of the 2020 election results. This call will become a central focus of the Jan 6 Committee as "it raises the specter of a possible connection between Trump and the insurrection."

Around 200 witnesses and members of the Trump administration have voluntarily come forward to the Jan. 6 Committee to provide information to Congress.

In addition to the 200 witnesses, the Committee received 25,000 documents for the investigation. Rep. Zoe Lofgren, a member of the Jan 6 Committee stated, "Let me say certainly there have been people, part of the Trump administration, who have spoken to us and provided important insights that have led us to further questions."

The GOP’s refusal to censure Rep. Paul Gosar for posting an animated video showing him murdering Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a shocking endorsement of political violence targeting women of color.

“Violence against women in politics is a global phenomenon meant to silence women and discourage them from seeking positions of authority and participating in public life, with women of color disproportionately impacted. Minority Leader McCarthy’s silence is tacit approval and just as dangerous.” – Statement Prepared by House Democrats

The January 6 Committee has subpoenaed six individuals linked to Trump’s War Room inner circle “tied to efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.”

The subpoenas included John Eastman who wrote the infamous memo on how to overturn the election, former New York City police commissioner Bernard Kerik, and disgraced former national security adviser Michael Flynn. The three members of Trump’s campaign who also received subpoenas are Bill Stepien; Jason Miller, and Angela McCallum.

Federal Judge Tanya Chutkan is likely to rule against the Trump team's attempt to stop the release of documents to the Jan. 6 committee. The National Archive will plan to release these documents by Nov. 12th.

Despite Trump’s efforts to slow down the investigation in court, the January 6 Committee has interviewed more than 150 people and will soon issue 20 new subpoenas. Vice Chair Liz Cheney told Politico, “There really is a huge amount of work underway that is leading to real progress for us.”

January 6 organizers told the House Select Committee that they participated in “dozens” of “planning briefings” with Trump’s White House and over a dozen GOP lawmakers.

Trump’s former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and White House officials played a “major role” in planning events that led to the January 6 Insurrection. Organizers warned Meadows that the protests could turn violent. Over a dozen Republican lawmakers also helped planned events that resulted in the violent attack on the Capitol, including Paul Gosar who assured organizers that Trump would issue a “blanket pardon” for protesters.

The Republican Party has fully embraced lies, disinformation, and conspiracy theories to attack our democracy and put Trump back in the White House.

MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan warns, "We are in the midst of a rolling coup. Almost every day, Republicans pass more voter suppression laws. They purge more and more election officials and they entrench the big lie that the election was stolen." Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) tweeted, “Perpetuating the Big Lie is an attack on the core of our constitutional republic.”

Senate Judiciary Committee Releases Report on Donald Trump's Scheme to Pressure DOJ & Overturn the 2020 Election

The Senate report, “Subverting Justice,” details how Trump and his loyalists threatened a wholesale takeover of the DOJ. Trump backed down after staff threatened mass resignations and White House counsel Pat Cipollone, called Trump’s plan a “murder-suicide pact.”

The House January 6 committee conducts closed door interviews as rightwing extremists organize “shock troops.”

Former National Security Council advisor Fiona Hill warns that Trump’s “in plain sight attempt at a self-coup” is a danger to democracy because “congressional Republicans went along with President Trump's lies.” A federal Judge sentencing a Capitol rioter says, “There have to be consequences for participating in an attempted violent overthrow of the government.”

The House is investigating 11 organizers of Trump rallies connected to the January 6 Insurrection.

The new House subpoenas come a week after members of Trump’s inner circle were subpoenaed, including top Trump White House officials. The investigation includes “how various individuals and entities coordinated their activities leading up to the events of January 6, 2021.”
