The Eighth Hearing of the January 6 Committee Investigating the Attack on the U.S. Capitol documented what President Trump did while two women died and Capitol Police and rioters were injured. 

As bad as it was, it could have been worse. Using videotape, sworn testimony, and subpoenaed documents, the Committee presented a timeline showing what happened on Capitol Hill and what Trump was doing or not doing.

The Seventh Hearing Jan. 6 Congressional Hearing featured testimony from Jason Van Tatenhove, Former Oath Keepers Spokesperson, and Stephen Ayres, a January 6th, Defendant.

The Committee used videotape, social media posts, and testimony from former Trump administration officials to show the former President's connection to right-wing, para-military groups.

And lawmakers documented why he called on his supporters to March on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The House Select Committee Investigating January 6, 2021, Attack on the U.S. Capitol welcomed Cassidy Hutchinson into the hearing room on Tuesday, June 28, 2022.

Hearing number six highlighted Cassidy Hutchinson's Great Notes and Quotes. 

Hutchinson was an aide to Mark Meadows, Donald Trump's chief of staff. And she was great.

The fifth hearing of the House Select Committee into the investigation of the January 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol put the Department of Justice in the spotlight. Testimony from three former Justice Department Attorney's focused on January 3, 2021, meeting at the White House. 

I have posted a blog on this episode on my website. You can find the story here:

The fourth Hearing of the House Select Committee on the Jan. 6 Attack on the Capitol features State Election Officials who a lame-duck president pressured to falsify vote counts.

Witnesses included Rusty Bowers, Arizona House Speaker; Gabriel Sterling, Georgia Secretary of State Chief Operating Officer and Brad Raffensperger, Georgia Secretary of State. 

Raffensperger's testimony was backed up by an infamous audio recording of then-President Trump pressuring him to come up with 11,780 votes. 

Joe Biden beat Trump in Georgia by 11,779 votes. 

The other witnesses were Shaye Moss, a former Georgia election worker, and her mother, Lady Ruby. Who women Trump accused of stuffing Georgia ballots with votes for Biden. False accusations. But still resulted in death threats.

One of the witnesses at the third Jan. 6 Congressional Hearing was Greg Jacob, he was Counsel to Vice President Mike Pence. He was also with the Vice President during the insurrection. When President Trump became obsessed with Pence blocking the certification of the 2020 Presidential Election, Jacob was the one who researched whether that would be possible.

Jacob conducted a thorough analysis of the role of the Vice President in a joint session of Congress under the Constitution, the Electoral Count Act, and 230 years of historical practice. 

He determined and advised the President and the Vice President that what Trump wanted Pence to do was illegal.

This is a quote from the testimony of Amanda Wick, Senior Investigative Counsel for the House Select Committee Investigating Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

"Between Election Day and January 6th, the Trump campaign sent millions of fundraising emails to Trump supporters, sometimes as many as 25 a day. The emails claimed the quote, "Leftwing mob was undermining the election," implored supporters to quote, "Step up to protect the integrity of the election," and encourage them to repeat, "Fight back." But as the select committee has demonstrated, the Trump campaign knew these claims of voter fraud were false.

"Yet they continued to promote small-dollar donors with e-mails encouraging them to donate to the Official Election Defense Fund. The select committee discovered that no such fund existed."

The First Jan. 6 Congressional Hearing - Highlights.

If I have to summarize the first hearing in one sentence, it is, "The January 6 Insurrection was a planned, coordinated operation to stop the peaceful transfer of power."

I am counting down to the next Jan. 6 Congressional Hearing.

It is expected to happen on Sept. 28. I am producing eight videos for each hearing in the Summer of 2022.

The first hearing happened on June 9, featuring never-seen-before videos and taped interviews with seven Trump Administration staff, friends, and family, including his daughter and son-in-law.

Two witnesses testified in person—Capitol Police Officer Caroline Edwards and Nick Quested, a documentary filmmaker.
