Leaked Mark Meadow’s emails reveal that a number of powerful people desperately texted Meadows to get then-President Trump to stop the Capitol riot, but were ignored.
The January 6th Committee has released the damming texts and emails. These texts prove the WH knew all along what was happening at the Capitol.
The panel’s vice chair, Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., discussed the texts from Fox hosts Laura Ingraham, Brian Kilmeade and Sean Hannity, reading some out loud:
“Mark, the president needs to tell the people in the Capitol to go home. This is hurting all of us. He is destroying his legacy,” Ingraham texted, Cheney said.
She then read from a text she said was from Kilmeade.
“Please get him on TV. Destroying everything you have accomplished,” he wrote.
“Can he make a statement asking people to leave the Capitol?” Hannity asked in a text.
Other texts were said to be from the president’s eldest son.
“We need an oval office address. He has to lead now. It has gone too far. And gotten out of hand,” Trump Jr. said in one of the texts that was read aloud.
And as expected, after Mark Meadows refused to continue to cooperate the nine-member bipartisan committee voted unanimously to file criminal contempt of court charges.
