select committee looks to decipher Kushner\u2019s role<\/a> in the events surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. While the former White House adviser didn\u2019t play a visible part in supporting Trump\u2019s efforts to subvert the election results, he often gave him advice on sensitive matters.
The Jan. 6 investigators have already revealed that they are interested in Ivanka Trump, the former president\u2019s daughter and Kushner\u2019s wife, whom senior White House aides viewed as a last resort to persuade her father to address Capitol rioters during the insurrection. She has been in communication with the panel and was asked to testify at the end of January.
President Joe Biden has decided against invoking executive privilege multiple times when it comes to the investigation of the Capitol attack, what he has deemed the \u201cdarkest\u201d day in U.S. history. In October, the White House waived executive privilege<\/a> to shield an initial set of records from the Trump White House. Biden has also turned down efforts by Dan Scavino<\/a>, the longtime social media manager for Trump, to resist the committee\u2019s investigation by asserting executive privilege.
A deluge of the committee\u2019s findings have come to light this week, including Ginni Thomas\u2019 communications with White House chief of staff Mark Meadows about fighting the 2020 election results. Kushner\u2019s name came up in these texts<\/a>, in which Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, referenced sending an email to \u201cJared\u201d on the matter.
New revelations also surfaced on Tuesday about a seven-hour gap in Trump\u2019s White House call log on Jan. 6, 2021, according to reports from The Washington Post and CBS News<\/a>. The panel is now looking into whether Trump used alternative means to communicate that day, including phones of aides or so-called burner phones.
