Jamie Raskin: Gap in Jan. 6 White House logs of 'intense interest' to select committee
Rep. Jamie Raskin said a 7-hour gap in White House logs provided to the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot "are suspiciously tailored to the heart of the events" of that day but wouldn't rule out the possibility the gap represents incompetence rather than conspiracy.
"We are aware of other phone calls that took place during that time that included the president," the Maryland Democrat said. "But we have no comprehensive fine-grain portrait of what was going on during that period. And that is obviously of intense interest to us."
Raskin, who sits on the Jan. 6 House select committee, said Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation" that he is hoping for public hearings in early May regarding the investigation.
When asked whether he is confident the committee's work will result in the Justice Department issuing criminal recommendations, Raskin only would say the committee will "lay out the evidence that we see" and that the committee's first role is to "deliver a report" to the public and Congress.
