The call was uncovered after Riggleman assembled a small team of data miners and analysts for the committee to comb through 20 million lines of data: emails, social media posts, phone records, and texts, to learn who did what leading up to and on January 6th.

"We were able to do things, I think, in a way that had never been done before with millions of lines of data," Riggleman said. "And to actually create a graph that shows how these groups actually intermingled."

Those groups, according to Riggleman, included, "Trump team, Trump family, rally goers, unaffiliated DOJ-charged defendants, Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, and others, which are state legislators, alternate electors, things like that."

I keep trying, but can't get my head around it.
Like many others, I have lost friends and family to this crazy, insane, bullshit.

and me it’s mind boggling, but to his supporters, they are of one mind. They think the same way and don’t believe in our constitution any longer.

Conservative leaning, religious, white people no longer have the numbers to effect total control of our governmental institutions and overall society anymore and it's getting worse every election cycle. The Senate and electoral college are simply delaying the inevitable. Thus, they've given up completely on liberal democratic government in favor of something that DOES put them back in complete control of the levers of power. Fascism. And Donnie is their "Savior".

If the call originated from a WH land line, not a burner cell phone, there should be a record of the caller and/or the number making the call.

Not the J6 committee.
So we know 1 end of the phone call, has he/she been interrogated yet? What ever will DOJ do when an insurrectionist is connected to someone at the top of the pyramid?
The pyramid strategy was a huge mistake, time matters.

The committee holds information close to the vest and he is a former investigator. Maybe this will be part of Wednesday’s hearing. Or maybe this is to get more witnesses to come forward. Could the rioter have already told them who it was?

I wish there was a way (assuming dems hold the House) that the committee could be reauthorized in the new House and our 2 republicans could still be members. Did there charter require members to be in Congress or just have both Rs and Ds as members?
