Jan. 6 committee reveals Trump seems to have ordered White House photographer to stop taking pictures of him once the Capitol riot began
Trump found out that the Capitol was under attack at 1:25 p.m. local time, the report said. He asked a White House staffer if they saw his speech earlier in the day, to which they responded that the speech was cut off due to the unfolding scene at the Capitol.
When Trump asked why the speech was cut, the staffer reiterated that there were riots at the Capitol.
"Oh really?" Trump asked, according to the report. "All right, let's go see." A White House photographer captured a picture of the moment Trump found out about the riots, which the report said was "the last one permitted until later in the day."
"No photographs exist of the President for the remainder of the afternoon until after 4 p.m. President Trump appears to have instructed that the White House photographer was not to take any photographs," the report read.
Additionally, the House select committee said it found no official records of Trump's phone calls and no information from his diary during the afternoon.
