Trump Says Jan. 6 Committee Should Be Jailed
HuffPost
The former president took aim at former Rep. Liz Cheney and other members of the committee after a new report emerged.
Former President Donald Trump said that the members of the House Select Committee that investigated the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection should be jailed.
Trump’s remarks come less than a week after a new report from the House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight revealed that a Secret Service agent gave testimony that contradicted previous testimony from former White House staffer Cassidy Hutchinson.
In a Sunday post on Truth Social, Trump linked an article from the right-leaning website, Just The News, which claimed that the “Jan. 6 committee withheld crucial evidence from the public.” The article also said former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) interviewed the Secret Service agent whose testimony was just released as part of the report.
“[Cheney] should go to Jail along with the rest of the Unselect Committee!” Trump wrote.
Trump is facing numerous legal challenges, including one examining his role in the 2021 Capitol attack.
