Two individuals who helped organize the January 6 attack on the Capitol are reportedly claiming they met with members of Congress and White House staff numerous times leading up to the fateful day.
According to Rolling Stone, two anonymous sources who helped organize the January 6 protest claim they had “dozens” of meetings with members of Congress and White House staff to properly plan the protest against, what they believe, was a stolen election from former President Donald Trump.
These claims are so damning, because if true, this is the first evidence to come to light regarding members of Congress having direct knowledge – let alone active participation – in and regarding the protest turned insurrection that left 138 people inured and nearly 10 people dead.
The sources who spoke to the publication have also reportedly been cooperating with House investigators regarding the incident, and they haven’t been scared to provide the names of the Congress members and White House staff that they worked with leading up to the day of the protest.
“I remember Marjorie Taylor Greene specifically,” one anonymous source told the outlet. “I remember talking to probably close to a dozen other members at one point or another or their staffs.”
