Fox News
House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack holds its first hearing Tuesday, kicking off what is likely to be a politically charged and contentious several months focusing on the violent day.
According to Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., one of the Democrats on the committee, the officers are expected to outline their experience on the front lines of the Capitol attack, which was carried out by a mob of Trump supporters as Congress was attempting to certify the presidential election results. They will recount how outnumbered the police were and how militarized some of the attackers were, Schiff said. Schiff said the hearing, which starts at 9:30 a.m., will be "quite informative and powerful."More Related News
