Capitol Riot

The House Jan. 6 committee has subpoenaed Donald Trump for his testimony about the 2021 Capitol attack.

The founder of the Oath Keepers extremist group and four associates planned for an "armed rebellion" to stop the transfer of presidential power on Jan. 6, 2021, prosecutors told jurors Monday at the opening of the most serious case to reach trial yet in the attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Jury selection began Tuesday for the seditious conspiracy trial of several members of the far-right militia group the Oath Keepers, including founder Stewart Rhodes of Granbury.

The House has passed legislation to overhaul the rules for certifying the results of a presidential election as lawmakers accelerate their response to the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection and Donald Trump’s failed attempt to remain in power.

Lawmakers will vote Wednesday on a change to a law used for confirming presidential elections after ex-President Donald Trump tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

A Virginia man who stormed the U.S. Capitol while wearing an antisemitic “Camp Auschwitz” sweatshirt over a Nazi-themed shirt was sentenced on Thursday to 75 days of imprisonment.

The committee has already revealed much of its work at eight hearings over the summer, 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.

A New Mexico state district court judge has disqualified county commissioner and Cowboys for Trump cofounder Couy Griffin from holding public office.

The former president also said he would financially support those who participated in the deadly Capitol riot but did not specify how.

A Texas man convicted of storming the U.S. Capitol with a holstered handgun, helmet, and body armor was sentenced on Monday to 87 months — more than seven years — in prison, the longest sentence imposed so far among hundreds of Capitol riot cases.

Committee members hope to learn more about Ginni Thomas’ effort to keep Trump in office and the potential conflicts of interest for Clarence Thomas as a result on Jan. 6 cases that have come before the court.

Steve Bannon, a longtime ally of former President Donald Trump, has been convicted of contempt charges for defying a congressional subpoena from the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

Former White House aides have told the Jan. 6 committee that Donald Trump poured “gasoline on the fire” of the attack raging at the Capitol rather than calling off the mob laying siege.

After a day-long court session, final jury selection will stretch into a second day in the contempt-of-Congress trial of Steve Bannon.

The panel is looking to learn what President Trump was doing in the White House for several hours as his supporters were breaking into the Capitol and interrupting the certification of Joe Biden's presidential victory.

The House committee investigating the U.S. Capitol attack subpoenaed the Secret Service on Friday night for text messages agents reportedly deleted around Jan. 6, 2021, as the panel probes Donald Trump’s actions at the time of the deadly siege.

Steve Bannon was indicted last year on two counts of criminal contempt of Congress. He previously argued that his testimony is protected by former President Donald Trump’s claim of executive privilege.

Secret Service agents deleted text messages sent and received around the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol even after an inspector general requested them as part of an investigation into the insurrection.
