With only three months left in the year, the US House of Representatives’s January 6 committee is eyeing a close to its work and a final report laying out its findings about the United States Capitol riot. But the investigation is not over.

The committee has already revealed much of its work at eight hearings during midyear, showing in detail how former President Donald Trump ignored many of his closest advisers and amplified his false claims of election fraud after he lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden.
