, took place Dec. 18, 2020, four days after the electoral college had confirmed Mr. Trump’s defeat by Joe Biden, and as Mr. Trump’s legal challenges to the result were failing.
“President Trump summoned a mob to Washington,” said Liz Cheney, the committee’s Republican vice-chair. “The President’s stolen election lies provoked that mob to attack the Capitol.”In videotaped depositions played at the hearing, several of Mr. Trump’s advisers said they had urged him to concede after the electoral college vote on Dec. 14. In one of the depositions, his daughter, Ivanka Trump, even acknowledged she felt the fight was over.
“The screaming was completely out there,” recounted Eric Herschmann, a former White House lawyer, in the videotaped deposition. “What they were proposing, I thought, was nuts.” Mr. Giuliani said he derided Mr. Trump’s staff with a sexually explicit term for not supporting his plan. “The meeting was UNHINGED,” another aide, Cassidy Hutchinson, texted afterward.
Enrique Tarrio and Stewart Rhodes, leaders of far-right groups the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers, started a group chat with Ali Alexander, organizer of the Stop the Steal rally, to co-ordinate efforts. These groups were in touch with Mr. Flynn and Roger Stone, another outside adviser to Mr. Trump, the committee said.
At a rally near the White House on Jan. 6, Mr. Trump ultimately exhorted his supporters to go to Congress and “fight like hell.” Jason Van Tatenhove, a former Oath Keepers spokesman, testified that the “racist” group was intent on fomenting an insurrection.

Opinion | Pope’s visit opens door to examine Canada’s role in global white privilegeOpinion: When the Pope arrives and reminds Canada of its shameful past, let's hope it does not stop there. Canada remains part of a global system of white privilege. If it really wants to pursue decolonization, it must look at the wider reality. Go ahead and hate yourself for being white. As a daughter of immigrants I am a proud Canadian who had no part in the countries racist past. I love me and I love being white. I encourage everyone to love who they are! The pope is gone.
