During Thursday's hearing, the January 6 House committee aired video evidence showing how Donald Trump repeatedly made false claims about voter fraud that directly contradicted facts presented to him by top advisers. These actions, taken directly by the president himself, made it clear what his intentions were: to prevent the orderly transfer of power," said Congressmember Elaine Luria. California Congressmember Adam Schiff also presented several Secret Service messages showing prior knowledge of the potential for violence on January 6. By the morning of January 6, it was clear that the Secret Service anticipated violence," said Schiff, with one agent claiming in a chat group that it felt like the calm before the storm."
