New evidence shared by the Jan. 6 committee shows then-President Donald Trump edited a speech that was aimed at strongly condemning the deadly attack on the Capitol last year.

The hearing detailed what former President Donald Trump did and did not do in the hours after his Ellipse speech and before he tweeted a video asking his supporters to leave the Capitol.

For 187 minutes, pressure mounted for the president to call off the mob and tell rioters to stop. Witnesses say Trump escalated the violence with a tweet and watched the violence unfold on TV.

IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig, who was appointed by President Trump in 2018, will face questions behind closed doors from lawmakers in the House and Senate before the end of the month.

The panel's third meeting this month will focus on how former President Trump pressured former Vice President Mike Pence not to count lawful electoral votes. The hearing starts at 1 p.m. ET.

Recent legal moves by the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol offer some clues on how it's following the money.

COMMENTARY: If Trump dealt with Kim, then Biden can deal with Maduro — as long as Biden treats Venezuela's dictator tougher than Trump treated North Korea's.

But the attorney general would not confirm that a federal probe on the matter is underway. He said the Justice Department would "look at the facts and the law and take it from there."
