Former President Trump’s oldest daughter, Ivanka is scheduled to testify to the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6th Capitol riot today.
The Daily Mail reports:
‘We’re looking forward to her coming to the committee,’ panel chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson told reporters on Capitol Hill on Monday night, saying an agreement with the former first daughter to testify was ‘close.’
In January, the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the Capitol asked Ivanka Trump, who served as an adviser to her father Donald Trump in the White House, to voluntarily testify about what she saw on January 6th.
Ivanka Trump attended the rally that President Trump spoke to on the National Mall the morning of the riot and was reported to be in and out of the Oval Office as MAGA supporters stormed the Capitol. She is said to have spent hours that day asking her father to speak out against the violence and have his supporters leave the Capitol.
Ivanka’s testimony comes a week after her husband who also served as an adviser to Trump appeared before the panel last week.
Committee member Rep. Elaine Luria told MSNBC after Kushner’s appearance that he ‘was able to voluntarily provide information to us, to verify and substantiate his own take’ on the election.
Kushner was the highest-ranking Trump advisor and the first family member to testify to the House panel.
