The ex-president also said that Iran, China and South Korea were happy Biden won, adding that 'the election was rigged and lost'

It has nothing to do with facts or reality.” “[Moon] was going to pay $5bn, $5bn a year. But when I didn’t win the election, he had to be the happiest – I would rate, probably, South Korea third- or fourth-happiest.”

Last summer, the former president spoke with a group of historians writing a scholarly account of his administration.

Of the violence that unfolded later that day, Trump insisted it was "a tiny portion" of the crowd that went to the U.S. Capitol and engaged in violence. "It was very modest in many ways, and it was a very peaceful speech.

Trump Admits 'I Didn't Win' the 2020 Election During Video Call with Presidential Historians Last summer, the former president spoke with a group of historians writing a scholarly account of his administration Academic historians writing a scholarly account of former President Donald Trump's time in the White House were given an unusual opportunity to hear from their subject when he joined six of the project's 17 authors for a Zoom conference last summer. (Trump has embraced the former after being banned from using the latter in the wake of the U. S. Capitol attack by his supporters.) In the conversation with historians, Trump more than once admitted to losing the 2020 election to now-President Joe Biden — a rare concession, though he continued to make baseless claims of fraud — Zelizer points out in this piece. Julian E. Zelizer, the editor of The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: A First Historical Assessment, writes in a new piece for The Atlantic that the meeting was suggested by Trump, who hoped that the historians would produce "an accurate book."

Ivanka Trump, the daughter of ex-President Donald Trump, was in the White House during the Capitol riot, and was asked to get him to address the violence.

"She's answering questions," said Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., the committee's chairman, earlier about Ivanka, who served as senior White House advisor during her father's presidency. Thompson noted that the committee didn't have to issue a subpoena to Ivanka Trump, as it has had to do for a number of other Trump White House veterans and other allies of the former president, some of whom have refused to testify. Kushner also was a senior advisor in the Trump White House and is the only other family relative to have testified before the committee other than his wife. Ivanka Trump testified for around eight hours Tuesday to the select House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot that began after her father, former President Donald Trump, spent weeks falsely claiming he was being deprived of a second White House term because of widespread ballot fraud. - "She's answering questions," said Rep.

Others losing badly, who's next?"

Ivanka Trump, the daughter and senior White House adviser of former President Donald Trump, spent roughly eight hours testifying before the Jan.

The FBI has arrested more than 775 people in connection with the Jan. 6 attack. Trump’s virtual appearance followed six hours of testimony last week from her husband and fellow former White House aide Jared Kushner. A source in the committee room for Kushner's virtual testimony described him as being cooperative and friendly, adding that Kushner did the talking, as opposed to having his lawyers speak for him. A representative for Ivanka Trump did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The abrupt departure of two senior executives from a social media platform backed by former President Donald Trump is raising questions about where it goes ...

"Building and scaling a [social media] platform is vastly different than building a website or an application," Patterson said. Although companies often request filing extensions, the delay underlined the rocky February rollout of Truth Social, which was marred by outages, a lengthy waitlist and difficulty accessing the app. Trump announced plans to create Truth Social after he was permanently removed from Twitter, Facebook and YouTube in 2021.

The former president made the admission he didn't win the 2020 election in an interview defending the legacy of his sole term in office.

During the interview, Trump depicted himself as underrated and pointed to what he described as downplayed successes around the economy, pandemic and foreign policy. However, elsewhere in the interview, Trump referred to the 2020 election as being "rigged and lost." "President Trump has been very clear that the election was rigged and stolen," she said. The Princeton professor noted that neither George W. Bush nor Barack Obama had reached out to him to offer their accounts of their presidencies. Trump, during the interview, also said the "real story" about the January 6 capitol insurrection "has yet to be written." Trump made the statement during an interview published Monday by The Atlantic with a group of historians working on a book about his presidency.

- Efforts by Trump and his allies to recruit then-Vice President Mike Pence to decertify the election. - However, Kushner was out of the country on Jan. 6, returning to Washington after a trip to Saudi Arabia. That limits the extent of what he can offer the panel. - Trump's "state of mind" during the attack and whether he ignored pleas to denounce the rioters and abandon his claims the 2020 election was stolen. - Her repeated efforts to persuade the then-president to make a statement about the violence — and entreaties from staffers, lawmakers and others for her to intervene given her unmatched influence with her father. - That makes her one of the few people who can speak directly to his mindset as he sat in the private dining room adjoining the Oval Office and watched the riot unfold on television. The big picture: The Jan. 6 committee has been trying, through hundreds of interviews and thousands of documents, to understand what former President Trump said and did in real time during the insurrection.

The former president's daughter and adviser was in the West Wing with him as a pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol. She is said to have tried to persuade him ...

We know that his security detail had to protect him in an undisclosed location in the Capitol. We know the people who tried to get him to change his mind, about the count and all of that. The call to Mr. Pence was part of an effort to invalidate the 2020 election and give Mr. Trump a chance to stay in office. Ms. Trump then said to Mr. Kellogg, “Mike Pence is a good man,” Mr. Kellogg testified. The former president’s daughter, who served as one of his senior advisers, plans to testify before the Jan. 6 House committee. “The draft memo pushed a strategy that knowingly violated the Electoral Count Act, and Dr. Eastman’s later memos closely track its analysis and proposal,” the judge wrote. “There’s no effort on the part of the committee to get him to come in,” he said of Mr. Pence, adding: “We initially thought it would be important, but at this point we know that people broke in here and wanted to hang him. Among the documents is a draft memo written for Rudolph W. Giuliani, Mr. Trump’s personal lawyer, that recommended Mr. Pence reject electors from contested states on Jan. 6. Mr. Kellogg testified that the president had rejected entreaties from him as well as from Mark Meadows, his chief of staff, and Kayleigh McEnany, the White House press secretary. Also on Tuesday, the committee said it had received 101 documents that the conservative lawyer John Eastman had tried to withhold, arguing that they were covered by attorney-client privilege. Ms. Trump and Mr. Kushner are among the highest-ranking Trump White House officials to testify before the committee. She is not known to have been associated with the more extreme supporters of the former president who spread lies about widespread fraud after the 2020 election and planned efforts to try to keep him in power. In the letter, dated Jan. 20, the committee said it had heard from Keith Kellogg, a retired lieutenant general who was Mr. Pence’s national security adviser.

"My position remains this is not my Executive Privilege to waive and the Committee should negotiate this matter with President Trump," Navarro said in a statement. Navarro has been very public about his attempts to work with the Trump campaign to subvert the 2020 election. The committee has advanced three previous criminal referrals. Clark sat for an interview but pleaded the Fifth Amendment more than 100 times. He was intimately involved with Trump's social media channels, often posting message to Trump's followers on the then-President's behalf. "If he waives the privilege, I will be happy to comply; but I see no effort by the Committee to clarify this matter with President Trump, which is bad faith and bad law."

Ivanka Trump's lengthy testimony outstripped her husband Jared Kushner's six-hour session with the House committee investigating the Capitol riot.

The committee had earlier considered sending her a subpoena if she did not voluntarily turn up. In February, Insider reported that Ivanka Trump was in talks with the January 6 committee regarding her possible cooperation to provide testimony on the events of that day. - Ivanka Trump voluntarily testified before the January 6 select committee for eight hours on Tuesday.

“It would not be a positive in the general election.” Renacci, in particular, has tried to lean into his Trump connections during the race. Tom Luna, the chair of the Idaho Republican Party, said that the response to Covid is one of the biggest issues in the gubernatorial and other state primaries. Ivey appears to be in pole position in the race. He has embraced that lie on the stage alongside Trump and in media interviews, and has emphasized it — and Trump’s support — in campaign ads. Blanchard, who briefly ran for the state’s open Senate race, has leaned hard into her tenure in the Trump administration. The two other Republican governors seeking their party’s nomination in May are also facing Trump-inspired — but not Trump-endorsed — primary challengers. In Arkansas, the race showed the potential potency of his endorsement, when he backed his former press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders shortly after she launched her bid. “We’ll see, at the end of the day, if it’s enough,” he added. There, Trump has thrown his full support behind former Sen. David Perdue’s primary challenge to Gov. Brian Kemp, whom Trump still blames for not helping overturn his narrow loss in the state during the 2020 election. Little and McGeachin have had particularly public, and at times farcical, battles over Covid policy in the state. May’s primaries contests will test the success of that strategy and could shed light on Trump’s crumbling influence within the GOP — or prove it is as ironclad as it has ever been.

If someone handed their phone to Trump, the White House switchboard wouldn’t know about it and thus it would be up to the staffer or Trump himself to report that fact. According to the Bush Library, “The Diarist uses documents provided by various White House units that include the President’s schedule, press briefings, pool reports, speeches, and notes from White House staff members.” In the Bush administration, the materials collated by the diarist, “as well as drafts of the final Daily Diary, are found in the Presidential Daily Diary Backup.” Unlike Nixon’s 18-and-a-half-minute gap, which Al Haig sarcastically blamed on “ a sinister force,” there should be a paper trail that explains the official diary that was turned over. As a matter of modern practice, the presidential diarist, the person who produced the official daily diary, is employed by the National Archives. So, too, has Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy. And there are numerous reports that members of his family tried to intervene to get him to stop the attack on the Capitol. Just as suspicious is the fact that the diary, which notes the presence of the White House staffer Stephen Miller, among others, in a meeting just before Trump’s speech at the Ellipse, contains no mention of any staffer around him after he returns—as if Trump arranged the Rose Garden video all by himself. Yet according to the official log of his day, Trump was in the Oval Office from 1:19 p.m., when he returned from the Ellipse, until he went to the Rose Garden to tape his video message at 4:03 p.m. With the exception of a visit from the White House valet at 1:21, he was ostensibly alone the entire time and was not receiving or making any calls. Tuberville’s and McCarthy’s telephone records, which are not White House records, would reveal not only the time and duration of their calls but the number on the other end. Trump is still speaking at the Ellipse, encouraging his supporters to take their protest to the Capitol. By 1:50 p.m., a riot is declared at the Capitol. At 2:11, the rioters break into the west side of the Capitol and are at the steps of the Senate two minutes later, at which point the Senate goes into sudden recess. At 4:17 p.m., 11 minutes after President-elect Biden speaks to the nation, Trump releases a video repeating the lie that the election was stolen but, professing his love of the insurrectionists, finally asks people to go home. In 2003, nearly a decade after Nixon’s death, the National Archives invited five companies and individuals to use blank tapes and the original recording machines to reexamine the process by which the original might have been erased, to see whether changes in audio technology might allow for the recovery of more intelligible sound. The comparisons to Richard Nixon were immediate and inevitable—but they missed a key difference: What happened in those seven hours should ultimately be knowable, at least at some level. Now a seven-hour gap has appeared in Trump’s official daily White House diary, part of the documentation that the congressional January 6 committee requested for its investigation into all aspects of the country’s 2021 insurrection. The former president had a habit of tearing drafts and signed documents into small pieces to be thrown away—or flushing them down a toilet.
