Texts: Trump Jr. pleaded to Meadows have father condemn Jan. 6 attackThe House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection unanimously approved a resolution Monday to recommend that former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows be held in contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a subpoena. Why it matters: The committee's focus on the former White House chief of staff brings them one step closer to the former president. Texts read aloud during the briefing hearing showed Donald Trump Jr. pleading with Meadows to have his father urge an end to So quiet from Jr. since this was announced. Daddy probably put him in the time-out corner. Interesting that Jr couldn't contact his daddy directly, or didn't for more mob-like plausible deniability Jr doesn’t have direct contact with daddy?
