WASHINGTON — The House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection is holding what could be its last public hearing Thursday, with committee members indicating they will focus on former President Donald Trump’s state of mind that day and present a more holistic summation of the events and how they were organized.
Each of the nine committee members are expected to lead a portion of the hearing, which began at 1 p.m. Eastern time, by presenting fresh testimony from new and old witnesses, as well as new evidence obtained from the Secret Service and never-before-seen video footage of the riot and of key players in the days around Jan. 6.
“We still have significant information that we’ve not shown to the public that’s available to us,” Committee Chair Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., told reporters last week.
