This week the January 6 Committee received more than 700 pages of documents from the Trump White House related to various attempts to challenge the election, including a draft of an executive order calling for extreme measures.
The draft executive order called for the military to seize voting machines and deploy the National Guard, was the subject of heated debate inside the White House in December, as the pro-Trump lawyer Sidney Powell and Mr. Trump’s former national security adviser Michael T. Flynn promoted wild conspiracies about voting machines. Others in the room, including the White House counsel, Pat A. Cipollone, repeatedly and aggressively pushed back on the ideas being proposed.
