The US congressional committee investigating the storming of the Capitol in 2021 appealed to the daughter of former President Donald Trump Ivanka with a request for “voluntary cooperation,” according to the agency’s website.
The ex-president’s daughter was his adviser and head of the White House Office for Economic Initiatives and Entrepreneurship. She was invited to cooperate so that she would transmit data about her father’s attempts to prevent the certification of the election results, which he lost.
The investigation expects that Ivanka will also report on Trump’s reaction to the events of January 6 and his further actions, including a “state of mind.”
“We are writing to you with a request for voluntary cooperation with our investigation on a number of critical topics… Our questions will only concern the events of January 6, the actions that contributed to or influenced them, and your role in the White House during this period,” the committee’s statement emphasizes.
Earlier it became known about Trump’s secret advisers during his presidency. Sean Hannity, Jeanine Pirro, Lou Dobbs and Laura Ingram, each of whom had their own show on Fox News, had the greatest influence on the vice president.
The storming of the Capitol building took place on January 6, 2021 during a rally of Trump supporters who did not recognize the results of the November vote, according to which Democrat Joe Biden was elected the new leader of the United States. The protests led to large-scale clashes with the police. Five people were killed, dozens were detained.
