The year-long congressional panel probing the 2021 assault on the US Capitol begins outlining its findings Thursday, promising explosive new revelations that will tie the deadly siege to Donald Trump's attempts to overturn his election defeat.

The first hearing -- an evening primetime presentation -- will serve as an "opening statement" on the January 6 insurrection, according to aides of the investigating House select committee, which began its work last July.

According to a report from Business Insider, Vladimir Putin's decision to invade Ukraine has reportedly managed to destroy 15 years of financial gains Russia has made with no end in sight.

The report points to a prediction made by the highly influential Institute of International Finance, that said the unprovoked invasion, which was then followed by international condemnation and sanctions, has plunged Russia back to economic levels seen in 2007.

CNN continues to air new audio that has never before been broadcast publicly on the eve of the first prime-time hearing by the House Select Committee Investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol.

The network has been playing audio obtained by New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns while researching their book This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America's Future.

Donell Harvin, the former chief of Homeland Security for Washington, D.C., revealed that there continues to be "chatter" monitored by United States intelligence agencies that international terrorist groups are considering using loose gun laws to commit acts of terror in the country.

Speaking to MSNBC on Wednesday, Harvin called it a "serious concern."

On Wednesday during an interview on Real America's Voice, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) argued that former President Donald Trump isn't responsible for the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

In fact, she argued, nobody is really responsible for the attack.

Colorado officials will review an allegation that Rep. Lauren Boebert falsified mileage reports during 2020 and used reimbursements from her campaign fund to pay off tax liens on her restaurant.

The American Muckrakers PAC — the same group that released compromising videos of Rep. Madison Cawthorn that may have aided in his recent primary defeat — wrote to the Colorado Attorney General’s office about the matter on June 1, as first reported by the New York Times.

In the weeks following the Jan 6. attack on the U.S. Capitol, multiple Republican members of Congress denied giving "reconnaissance tours" ahead of the attack, yet the question of whether there was inside information given to the insurrectionists has come back into the foreground of the conversation ahead of public hearings by the select committee.

Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ), a former federal prosecutor and retired U.S. Navy Lt. Commander, revealed after Jan. 6 that she believes she witnessed insurgents doing a "reconnaissance" tour prior to the attack.

Washington Commanders defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio called the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 "a dust-up" when he was asked a question during a press conference about a controversial tweet from earlier this week.

The tweet in question was a reply Del Rio posted under a news story detailing the Jan 6 House committee's upcoming hearings, where he wrote, "Would love to understand 'the whole story' about why the summer of riots, looting, burning and the destruction of personal property is never discussed but this is ??? #CommonSense."

Rep. Pat Fallon (R-TX) this week linked mass shootings to "the overuse" of "dang smartphones."

At a House Oversight Committee hearing on Wednesday, Fallon rejected the call for new gun regulations following the recent mass shooting at a school in Uvalde, Texas.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is under investigation for possible fraud.

The first-term Colorado Republican allegedly inflated her mileage totals in 2020 and then used more than $20,000 in campaign reimbursements to pay off years worth of tax liens on her restaurant, and state officials confirmed the matter had been forwarded to an interagency group for investigation, reported the New York Times.

The House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol has a trove of public information on efforts by some of their GOP colleagues to encourage the attempted coup.

Here is how the calls to violently overturn the election results escalated in the week leading up to the attack.

Alex Walker, a Democratic candidate for the 3rd Congressional District seat held by Rep. Lauren Boebert, launched his campaign with a scatological splash in February, announcing his bid with a video featuring simulated fecal matter raining from the sky.

Walker’s spoof of the “bulls***” spewed by the far-right Colorado congresswoman set the tone for his brash, occasionally foul-mouthed campaign, during which he’s urged Democrats to stop being “polite” in fighting back against Boebert’s “embarrassing circus.”

Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert said in a tweet Tuesday that the left is “grooming” children in response to a North Carolina teacher resigning after using LGBTQ-inclusive flash cards. Boebert’s comments came the day before Pride Month began and weeks before a Colorado committee presents revisions to social studies education in the state that revokes mentions of LGBTQ people.

Grooming is a tool used by sexual predators to gain access to potential victims and coerce them into abuse, according to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network.
