RELATEDBarr tells Jan 6 hearing he worried Trump had 'detached from reality'
The second day of hearings by the special congressional committee on the Jan. 6 Capitol riots focused on the origins of former President Donald Trump's falsehoods about the 2020 presidential election outcome. Since losing the race to Joe Biden almost two years ago, Trump has continuously peddled false assertions that the contest was "rigged" and "stolen" from him.
During Monday's hearing lawmakers aired testimony from witnesses who said the former president was told he had lost the election but decided to perpetuate claims that he had won anyway. "This morning we'll tell the story of how Donald Trump lost an election and knew he lost an election, and as a result of his loss decided to wage an attack on our democracy," said Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss, chair of the committee.
