    Default Bill Barr spoke to Capitol riot committee

    Former Attorney General Bill Barr has met with the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 Capitol riot, Chairman Bennie Thompson revealed on Sunday.

    The Mississippi Democrat appeared on CBS News' Face The Nation where he confirmed a report that Donald Trump was presented with an executive order during the last full month of his presidency which would have had the military seize voting machines in battleground states.

    'Do you intend to go to the Attorney General, Bill Barr, to ask him about this? I mean, how do you follow up on this kind of allegation and the paperwork to back it up?' host Margaret Brennan asked.

    Thompson said they already had -- but did not elaborate on what the conversation was about.

    'To be honest with you, we've had conversations with the former attorney general already,' he said, adding: 'We have talked to Department of Defense individuals. We are concerned that our military was part of this big lie on promoting that the election was false.'

    "We are concerned that our military was part of this big lie on promoting that the election was false. So, if you are using the military to potentially seize voting machines, even though it's a discussion, the public needs to know. We've never had that before," he continued.

    Public hearings are expected to begin in the spring, he said.

    "Part of our plan is to continue to engage all those individuals that we deem necessary and important to our investigation. Some we'll talk to, some we will do in deposition under oath. Others we will offer hearing opportunities," Thompson said. "But I can assure you, as we develop this information, we will clearly present it to the public.

    We plan at this point to have a series of public hearings showing the use of federal assets, Department of Justice, Department of Defense and other agencies to actually stop the duly election of a president. So, we'll do it in due time."

    And nothing happened! How usual...

    After all, if the guy said something salacious it'd already be leaked onto CNN's and MSNBC's gossip shows...
