evidentiary threads. when the committee reconvened after our series of summer hearings, that meeting was very much focused on president trump s intent. and underscoring all of the information that the select committee had gathered that donald trump lost and he knew he lost. and that he pushed ahead with this scheme anyway. so i think that s certainly one of the key findings of the select committee s work. i expect, again, that s something that we ll be hearing more about. thank you so much for being with us. i really appreciate your time. next, former vice president mike pence featured prominently in the special counsel s indictment. how donald trump is responding to his former right-hand man. plus, as each new indictment actually galvanizing some voters and feeding into donald trump s framing that he is the victim of a, quote, witch hunt? you re watching special coverage of donald trump s third arraignment live from our nation s capital. stay right there. ( ) astepro allergy,
truncated version of our report. it actually reads very similar to vice chair cheney s opening statement in the first of our summer hearings. it was during that period of the first proceeding where she laid out that there is a multi part, intentional plan to disrupt the joint session and prevent the transfer of power and put pressure on state officials, at the department of justice, on the vice president, and ultimately at the capitol. that is exactly what his alleged in this indictment. there is not a lot of new information, other than some details about direct communications between the president and the vice president. the president and pat cipollone, is so the counsel has gotten additional corroborates information that provides some important context, about the president stage of mine. but the core conduct that is described is what we set forth in our report. i know you refer to pence, i know you didn t have a chance to interview him, so there is

and get healthier with golo. summer hearings by the january six committee that donald trump s call for supporters to watch the capitol on january 6th was some kind of spontaneous move. thanks to the ongoing will ease up new documents from the committee, we now know that trump plan was well known. so, sources told the washington post last june, quote, secret
own right. in their summer hearings, and at the time, either gonna be checked out? interested in? this i think they privilege people wrong about whether it would resonate. whether people would watch. i think they felt they needed it every day. possibly continue their investigation. they squeezed every drop out of their time to get new witnesses, new testimony, new depositions. so, this was as late is they could go. two weeks until congress turns over. i think they felt that they needed every minute they had. peter, if donald trump is in these referrals, that is basically the committee saying that of armor president had potentially 2024 candidates, can and should be prosecuted. how significant is that a political? yeah. it s political, not legal. this is legal, he s gonna do what he s going to do. he doesn t care what congress tells him. there s no legal standing. politics, of course, it s a pretty important statement. pretty important statement around bipartisan committee. a lot of
