‘It was sort of a feeling’: Trump film-maker says he feared trouble at Capitol

Alex Holder, who had extensive access to Trump and his family, says he suspected January 6 would be a likely flashpoint

When the House select committee investigating the January 6 Capitol attack deposed British film-maker Alex Holder, it heard from a first-hand fact witness who inadvertently observed some of the darkest and most politically fraught days of Donald Trump's time in office.

The new witness, who emerged late in the congressional investigation into the Capitol attack, had extensive personal access to Donald Trump and his family as the administration imploded in the post-2020 election period after the former president lost to Joe Biden.
