And over the past four-plus months a lot has surfaced about what Trump did and said on Jan. 6 — in texts, tweets, videos, calls and other conversations.
There’s a gap in the official White House phone notations given to the House committee investigating Jan. 6 — from about 11 a.m. to about 7 p.m., according to two people familiar with the congressional investigation into the riot. Details may still turn up; the former president was known to use various cell phones and often bypassed the White House switchboard, placing calls directly.— in texts, tweets, videos, calls and other conversations.
Would Trump himself head for the Capitol, as he’d suggested in his speech? It was unclear at first, but his motorcade turned to head back to the White House. No official record has surfaced yet of what Trump was doing during this time. The next entry in Trump's daily diary is not until 4:03 p.m., when he went out to the Rose Garden to tape a public address after frantic urging.
“I was the first person to call him," McCarthy said. “I told him to go on national TV, tell these people to stop it. He said he didn’t know what was happening.” Others, including former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, tried but failed to get through to the president.At 3:14 p.m. a Trump tweet at last made a sideways reference to the havoc. “I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order – respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!”
