January 6 committee gets inside Trump's West Wing wall of obstruction
The House select committee probing the January 6 insurrection is signaling that it has penetrated Donald Trump's wall of obstruction about what was going on inside the White House and his own family while he refused to stop the mob attack on the US Capitol a year ago this week.
Revelations delivered on Sunday by the top two lawmakers on the committee hint at the truth about the violence he incited to further his coup attempt, which turned into the worst assault on American democracy in modern times.
Vice Chair Liz Cheney, a Wyoming Republican, told ABC News of "firsthand testimony" that Trump's daughter Ivanka, then a West Wing adviser, twice asked him to intervene in a melee in which police officers were beaten by his crowd.

LOL Ted's been working overtime on his propaganda here, huh?
There was no coup attempt. There was no insurrection.
Trump will be fine.
He will also be your next President.

They were just trying to stay on the good side of a lame-duck president who still controlled the Republican base. “What is the downside for humoring him for this little bit of time?” a senior Republican official infamously told the Washington Post shortly after the election.
During the riot, and in the hours and days that followed, we got some rare honesty from Republicans who never in their lives would’ve said a cross word against Donald Trump. Many of those who condoned, or egged on, Trump’s stolen election narrative surrendered their guard to the rawness of the moment.
“This election was not unusually close. Just in recent history, 1976, 2000, and 2004 were all closer,” McConnell said as rioters began to descend on Capitol Hill. “This Electoral College margin is almost identical to 2016. If this election were overturned by mere allegations from the losing side, our democracy would enter a death spiral. We’d never see the whole nation accept an election again.” After the riot, a visibly furious McConnell insisted on the floor that this “failed insurrection” from “thugs” would not deter the Senate from its work.
The following week, top House Republican Kevin McCarthy allowed himself, for perhaps the first and last time, to tell some truths about Donald Trump. In a floor speech, McCarthy said Trump “bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding.” Trump, he said, needed to “accept his share of responsibility, quell the brewing unrest and ensure President-Elect Joe Biden is able to successfully begin his term.”
South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, who, like McCarthy, had egged on Trump’s efforts to fight the election results, gave an emphatic speech after the riot on the need to certify the election results. “Count me out, enough is enough,” he said on the floor. “It is over.”
Joe Biden “won,” Graham said. “He’s the legitimate President of the United States. I cannot convince people, certain groups, by my words, but I will tell you by my actions that maybe, I above all others in this body, need to say this: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are lawfully elected and will become the President and the Vice President of the United States on January the 20th.”
Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler, who rallied to Trump’s stolen election narrative and promised to object to certification only a couple of days before the rally, only to lose her runoff anyway, changed her mind following the riot. “The events that have transpired today have forced me to reconsider,” she said on the Senate floor, “and I cannot now, in good conscience, object.” Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford, backed away from his pledge to object, too, and the following week apologized to Black constituents for having questioned the election results.
There was a fleeting moment when Republicans might finally, en masse, move to cut off ties with Trump. But not long after, they all got back on script.
Trump’s approval among Republicans never fell through the floor, and he was able to retain his stranglehold of the party. With the exception of a few Republicans in Congress, Jan. 6, the culmination of an active, multi-month effort to overturn a presidential election, receded as a breaking point for the party.

A former president in the crosshairs: Jan. 6 committee puts Trump on notice as U.S. marks riot anniversary
If Donald Trump was looking for direction in the special House committee’s investigation into the deadly Capitol attacks, the former president now has an unsettling roadmap.

You really need to venture out of your echo chamber once in a while, Ted.
Most Americans have no idea how you live in an alternate reality.
