Committee members hope to learn more about Ginni Thomas’ effort to keep Trump in office and the potential conflicts of interest for Clarence Thomas as a result on Jan. 6 cases that have come before the court.
A timeline of what transpired during the deadly Capitol riot on Jan. 6.
"We anticipate talking to additional members of the president’s Cabinet," said Rep. Liz Cheney, the committee's vice chair. "We anticipate talking to additional members of his campaign. Certainly, we’re very focused as well on the Secret Service." DeVos, in her resignation letter on Jan. 7, 2021, blamed Trump for inciting the mob. "There is no mistaking the impact your rhetoric had on the situation, and it is the inflection point for me," she wrote.
"The floodgates have opened," said Rep. Elaine Luria, D-Va., regarding the next phase of its investigation. "We certainly hope that she will agree to come in voluntarily," Cheney said. "But the committee is fully prepared to contemplate a subpoena if she does not." While a possible Trump prosecution is a matter for the Justice Department, the committee has used its hearings to try to make a case about his political viability as he mulls running in 2024. Some of the most damning testimony aired by the committee has come from Trump’s own top Republican advisers, military leaders and confidants, who admitted to a loss of confidence in his judgment and dedication to the rule of law in the days leading up to and after the Jan. 6 attack.
