A top House Republican who is leading the investigation into January 6, 2021, dropped a bombshell regarding the probe during an interview earlier this week.
Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) told Just the News that Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is prepared to expand the scope and “intensity” of the probe and increase the investigative resources committed to it.
“Speaker Johnson has been phenomenal in helping us with this,” Loudermilk, who chairs the House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight, told the outlet’s evening streaming TV show Wednesday evening. “He’s given me a commission to not only press forward in the method we’ve been doing but increase our intensity into this.”
Loudermilk took over the January 6 investigation when Republicans gained control of the House in January. He has been instrumental in releasing extensive security footage, internal documents, and testimonies that have significantly altered the public’s perception of the Capitol riot and its preceding events.
Loudermilk expressed his concern on Wednesday regarding the Jan. 6 committee’s failure to preserve crucial records, information, and video depositions, including communications with the Biden administration, despite being required to do so.
“We’ve uncovered a lot of evidence that is contrary to what they were telling us. There are not only flaws in their report; there are some flat-out lies in the report,” he said of the Democrats. “And the further we go down this path, the more that we’re uncovering. Probably one of the biggest things I think that we saw happen in the last year that we discovered had happened was the number of documents that were not preserved and were not passed along to our committee as the House Rules mandated.
“We are going to find these documents. And the reason it’s important is because I believe it’s what’s in those documents, which is why they don’t want us to see it,” he told the program.
