taylor green. some have denied this ever happened. matt gates is under investigation in an alleged sex trafficking investigation. he has denied all wrong doing, he has not been charged. but according to the testimony we heard in the hearing today, matt gates was asking for one of those from the beginning of time for everything he has ever done kind of pardons. and, you know, that could be an interesting thing for prosecutors who are still looking at him and are still going to have to decide whether or not he faces these charges. it depends on what he told the white house his pardons were about. this could add complications to matt gates. at this point, these members of congress are saying that there s nothing to see here but, as you can tell from the testimony from people inside the white house, this actually happened. you mentioned mr. biggs mr. biggs did. mr. dornan talked about congressional pardons but he never asked me for one. mr. gomer asked for one as well and m

good morning. i m peter alexander. we ve live here on capitol hill, where tonight the house select committee investigating the january 6th attack here will hold its first hearing. it will take place in primetime. a chance for that committee to grab the attention of the american public to try to lay out its case. it has now been more than 500 days since the attack in this building. the images haunting. but the impact has been waning over time. the committee that hopes to show donald trump s election with his election loss and repeated false claims of voter fraud laid the foundation for the deadly siege. but as our meet the press first read team puts it, what if folks who watch tonight are part of nearly half americans who already believe donald trump was mainly responsible for what happened on january 6th? and what if the other half of americans do not tune in? the committee does have a lot of work that it has to get done tonight, try to make its case. there are going to be si
