In a move that's certain to eventually reveal more of the maneuverings and the conspiracy behind the January 6 seditionist Trumpist insurrection at the Capitol, the House committee investigating the event is reportedly about to formally ask several telecommunications companies to preserve the phone records of several Trumpist Members of Congress and of the former guy and his corrupt family. CNN is reporting:
"The records request is the first step in the committee's investigatory process and could signal the direction they plan to go when they call witnesses.
It is unclear what means the committee will use to compel the telecommunications companies to cooperate with their request. The committee does have subpoena power, but requesting the information -- especially from members of Congress -- could lead to a lengthy legal battle.
The committee decided against making public the names of the lawmakers whose records they are targeting, three sources told CNN. But multiple sources familiar with the committee's work have confirmed for CNN at least part of list including many of the members of Congress included in the request. [snip]
The list is said to be evolving and could be added to as the investigation steps up. As of now it includes Republican Reps. Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Jim Jordan of Ohio, Andy Biggs of Arizona, Paul Gosar also of Arizona, Mo Brooks of Alabama, Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina, Matt Gaetz of Florida, Louie Gohmert of Texas, Jody Hice of Georgia and Scott Perry of Pennsylvania."The reported list contains some of the very worst, most dangerous seditionists in Congress. Notably missing is pathological liar and perpetual hack Rep. Kevin "Qevin" McCarthy (Sedition-CA) who reportedly told his Dear Leader to call off the attack on the Capitol while it was in progress. January 6 committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-MS) has indicated that the telecom records of dozens of individuals involved in the so-called "Stop The Steal" rally and its planning will be pursued (e.g., Roger Stone, Proud Boy and Oath Keeper leaders, etc.).
Several days ago, the January 6 committee asked eight Federal agencies for any records pertaining to the attack, requesting "communications within and among the White House and Executive Branch agencies during the leadup to January 6th and on that day,” including the Pentagon and FBI.
