Cops unleash Tasers as 200-person baby shower turns into brawl in Boston

Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows may be trying to cover up incriminating evidence about Donald Trump's state of mind during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

On Wednesday, The New York Times reported the Jan. 6 Select Committee Investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol has heard that Trump approved of then-Vice President Mike Pence being hung by Trump supporters for not overturning the 2020 presidential election, which was won by Democrat Joe Biden.

A Texas man entered a guilty plea today to a charge that carries five years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines in connection with the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. But for those concerned that MAGA rioters are not getting punished severely enough, this one might become a prime exhibit.

Christian Cortez, 28, of Seabrook, Texas, was accused of joining a crowd of rioters who were attempting to break down Capitol doors. He was arrested with co-defendant Benjamin Larocca, 28, also of Seabrook, who pleaded guilty in April 2022 to a misdemeanor charge of engaging in disorderly or disruptive conduct.

On Wednesday, Business Insider reported former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway alleges in her new book that former President Donald Trump called his first lady to whine about Conway's husband's tweets criticizing him.

"In her new book 'Here's the Deal: A Memoir,' Trump's former senior counselor Kellyanne Conway described how Melania Trump once defended her to Trump as he fumed over the feud," reported Nicole Gaudiano and Brent Griffiths. "'This guy is nasty. He won't stop,' Trump was telling his wife on the phone, according to Kellyanne Conway who could hear the conversation. 'And it's our Kellyanne. She's my top person. She knows a lot, too! What are we going to do?'"
