"We are aware of lots of contacts between the people in the White House and different people that were involved in the coup attempt and the insurrection," the congressman said

JAN. 6 COMMITTEE member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) confirmed a bombshell claim by Denver Riggleman, a former Republican member of Congress, who said the panel knew the White House switchboard placed a call to a Capitol rioter’s phone while the insurrection was ongoing.

While interviewing Raskin on NBC’s Meet the Press on Sunday, host Chuck Todd referenced an upcoming 60 Minutes episode featuring an interview with Riggleman where the former representative said that “the White House switchboard had connected to a rioter’s phone while it’s [the Jan. 6 riot] happening.”

“That’s a pretty big a-ha moment,” Riggleman added. He went on to say that he knows which rioter the White House contacted, although he was not aware of who at the White House placed the call. Riggleman has authored a book that promises a “behind-the-scenes” look at the committee’s work. It is scheduled to publish on Tuesday.

'Cause my Uncle took the message ...
And he wrote it on the wall.

5. Question

Why wouldn't the J6 committee want that reporting to get out. There has been no mention from them about this. Is there an adversarial reaction here?
