point, i would say, mr. meadows, you received these texts on january 6, what did you do with them? did you bring them to the attention of the president? what was the president's response? essentially it's the howard baker question. many years later, what did the president know and when did he know it? ryan nobles, thank you so much for being here. >> thank you. the committee's argument against mark meadows tonight is about building a case based on evidence, and as ryan just said, that includes the former chief of staff's own text messages. >> one text mr. meadows received said, quote, we are under siege here at the capitol. another, quote, they have breached the capitol. in a third, mark, protesters are literally storming the capitol, breaking windows on doors, rushing in. is trump going to say something?
