The Jan. 6 select committee on Thursday presented evidence that the Secret Service and National Security Council expressed concerns on Jan. 6 that then-Vice President Mike Pence would be stuck at the Capitol as the riot unfolded.
Why it matters: The evidence is meant to underscore the stakes on that day as rioters got within just five to 10 feet of the vice president, who they blamed for refusing to attempt to overturn the election in then-President Trump's favor.
