Rep. Elaine Luria, D-Va., a member of the House Jan. 6 Committee, said Thursday that former President Donald Trump clearly knew his false claims about the 2020 presidential election were not based in facts, yet continued to make them anyways.
Luria slammed, "purposeful lies made in public directly at odds with what Donald Trump knew from unassailable sources, the Justice Department's own investigations and his own campaign."
Luria added: "Donald Trump maliciously repeated this nonsense to a wide audience over and over again. His intent was to deceive."
Luria highlighted that many of Trump's top advisers repeatedly told the president that his claims were false.
"I went into this and would, you know, tell them how crazy some of these allegations were and how ridiculous some of them were," former Attorney General Bill Barr told the committee. "There was never an indication of interest in what the actual facts were."
Former President Donald Trump signed a memo in the wake of the 2020 presidential election for U.S. troops to withdraw from Afghanistan and Somalia, according to witnesses who testified before the Jan. 6 Committee.
