Washington—Chairman Bennie G. Thompson (D-MS) today announced that the Select Committee is requesting that Ivanka Trump provide information for the committee's investigation into the violence of January 6th and its causes. In a letter to Ms. Trump seeking a voluntary interview with the committee, Chairman Thompson underscored evidence obtained by the Select Committee that Ms. Trump was in direct contact with the former President at key moments on January 6th and that she may have information relevant to other matters critical to the Select Committee's investigation.
Ms. Trump apparently has direct knowledge of the former President's attempt to persuade Vice President Pence to take action to stop the counting of electoral votes. Chairman Thompson wrote, "As January 6th approached, President Trump attempted on multiple occasions to persuade Vice President Pence to participate in his plan. One of the President's discussions with the Vice President occurred by phone on the morning of January 6th. You were present in the Oval Office and observed at least one side of that telephone conversation."
The Select Committee is also seeking information from Ms. Trump about concerns in the office of the White House Counsel, from Members of Congress, and among the Vice President's staff about plans to pressure Vice President Pence to overturn the election. "[T]he Committee would like to discuss any other conversations you may have witnessed or participated in regarding the President's plan to obstruct or impede the counting of electoral votes," wrote Chairman Thompson.
Ms. Trump's role and actions on January 6th as the riot was underway at the Capitol are also a key focus for the Select Committee. Chairman Thompson wrote, "Testimony obtained by the Committee indicates that members of the White House staff requested your assistance on multiple occasions to intervene in an attempt to persuade President Trump to address the ongoing lawlessness and violence on Capitol Hill."
Given Ms. Trump's presence in the White House on January 6th, the Select Committee is seeking her knowledge about the former President's actions related to the deployment of the National Guard to respond to the violence. "The Committee is aware that certain White House staff devoted time during the violent riot to rebutting questions regarding whether the President was attempting to hold up deployment of the guard[…]. But the Committee has identified no evidence that President Trump issued any order, or took any other action, to deploy the guard that day. Nor does it appear that President Trump made any calls at all to the Department of Justice or any other law enforcement agency to request deployment of their personnel to the Capitol," wrote Chairman Thompson.
The Select Committee believes that Ms. Trump may have knowledge about efforts to advance unsupported claims about the 2020 election in the aftermath of the January 6th riot. Chairman Thompson wrote, "The Committee has information suggesting that White House staff and others were attempting to persuade President Trump to halt his statements regarding a 'stolen election' and were working directly with other supporters outside the White House in an effort to persuade President Trump to do so."

I doubt she will.
Honestly though, I believe she actually tried to get him to shut up and try to stop it.
I'm trying to copy and paste some text from the letter but either my computer is being a PITA or the website is
When I find something that can't be copied and pasted, I use the Windows Snipping Tool and then post it as an image.
Yes, I finally figured how to do that. LOL! I took screen shots of what I thought were the most interesting parts of the letter. I'm gonna try and post them

Good info! Thanks!
I doubt she will respond or show up.
I hope she gets her ass kicked in prison twice a day for as long as she's in.
Ok
Ok... this is very sloppy but I'm technologically challenged. But I think I got the main points pulled out. The points that I found interesting. If you actually read the entire letter you might find something more interesting.
donald really wanted to walk with the protestors?
Bullshit. He never had any intention of 'marching' with them.
Walk? Did you say walk?
That man doesn't even walk his own golf courses. He absolutely had no intention of going with them
See that there - about the corrected set of facts - not the fraudulent ones
Those are the ones that the scumbag republicans wanted to use instead of the actual electoral votes or whatever that they sent to the archives?? The fraudulent ones that they sent to the archives??
I think they got the meanings of fraudulent and facts mixed up
"Fake Documents Declaring Trump and Pence the 2020 Winners Sent to but Rejected by National Archives: Report"
Good question. I would think that somebody could be prosecuted for trying to foist fraudulent documents that certified trmp as the winner.
The evidence against Trump from the Jan 6 committee will be overwhelming. It already is. The question is, how much will Trumpsters care that their hero is a proven traitor ?
