There’s still plenty to learn about Jan. 6.

Why did Trump send out an invitation in the early hours of Dec. 19 for supporters to come to D.C. for a “wild” rally?

The committee has already covered the infamous shout-fest that took place at the White House late on Dec. 18, but Scavino, Meadows and perhaps others can shed light on conversations before and after the 1:42 a.m. tweet. This could be instrumental in assessing whether Trump intended to incite a riot or obstruct an official proceeding. Trump’s willingness to use force would also reaffirm his corrupt intent to remain in power regardless of the vote count.

Why weren’t National Guard members or sufficient law enforcement personnel present on

In addition to White House staff, Pentagon officials could testify as to whether forces were held back that could have quickly quelled the riot. Given that so many people knew violence was in the offing, the failure to preposition an adequate Capitol defense remains one inexplicable aspect of the insurrection.

When does it start?
 
Too many Republicans have adopted the stance that testifying before the House Jan. 6 select committee — even with a formal subpoena — is somehow optional. The public has yet to hear from a list of relevant individuals, including former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, former Trump social media aide Dan Scavino, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and any of the 10 members of Congress who attended a White House meeting on Dec. 21 to pressure then-Vice President Mike Pence to overturn the election.
