During the debut public hearing of the Jan. 6 Committee, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) asserted that multiple GOP Congress members sought Donald Trump’s pardon in connection with the attack on the U.S. Capitol, but she only called out one by name: Rep. Scott Perry.

“As you will see, Rep. Perry contacted the White House in the weeks after January 6th to seek a Presidential Pardon,” Cheney declared in her opening statement. “Multiple other Republican congressmen also sought Presidential Pardons for their roles in attempting to overturn the 2020 election.”

Perry’s press secretary Jay Ostrich calling the allegation a “ludicrous and soulless lie” in an email to Law&Crime.

The Los Angeles Times reported that Cheney has proof for her claim, and her press office did not immediately respond to Law&Crime’s press inquiry. But the committee’s letters to Perry show why they believe he may have sought the 45th president’s protection. One of those documents largely focuses on Perry’s alleged attempt to have Trump-loyalist lawyer Jeffrey Clark lead the Department of Justice.

“We have received evidence from multiple witnesses that you had an important role in the efforts to install Mr. Clark as acting Attorney General,” Jan. 6 Committee Chair Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) wrote in a letter on Dec. 20, 2021.

1. He wanted a senior position...

In the permanent Trump presidency.
He was all up in planning the takeover.

Just my opinion.
