Lee, who was involved in efforts to help former President Donald Trump overturn the 2020 election results, quoted a tweet from former House Jan. 6 committee member Liz Cheney with footage of the Capitol attack, saying,
Liz, we’ve seen footage like that a million times.

You made sure we saw that—and nothing else.
It’s the other stuff—what you deliberately hid from us—that we find so upsetting.
Nice try.
P.S. How many of these guys are feds? (As if you’d ever tell us). https://t.co/FryO0VdLdP
I can’t wait to ask FBI Director Christopher Wray about this at our next oversight hearing.

I predict that, as always, his answers will be 97% information-free. https://t.co/m3rRE4Byfu
Fox News host Maria Bartiromo discussed the conspiracy theory about FBI informants’ participation in Jan. 6 on the Sunday edition of her show, asking former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., about the rumor that federal assets were involved and if he had any insights into the FBI’s role. McCarthy said he wasn’t aware of it.
