WATCH LIVE: Jan. 6 hearing to focus on Trump's 'state of mind' around Capitol attack
The House Jan. 6 committee will once again dive into Donald Trump's efforts to undermine the outcome of the 2020 presidential race in a public hearing just 25 days before Election Day.
"What you're going to see is a synthesis of some evidence we've already presented with that new, never-before-seen information to, let's say, illustrate Donald Trump's centrality from the time prior to the election," an aide said. The aides would not say, despite multiple questions on the topic, what efforts had been taken to secure the testimony of Tony Ornato and Bobby Engel -- two officials named by former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson in her testimony about the alleged episode in the presidential SUV after Trump's rally at the Ellipse.
It's been nearly three months since the panel met, and since then members have held closed-door interviews with former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin and former Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao. It's not clear if the committee will reveal more from her deposition on Thursday. Her interview was not video-recorded, only transcribed, so the committee could only use quotes from Thomas.
