said lawmakers on the Jan. 6 House select committee are deeply interested in the 7-hour gap in former President Donald Trump’s White House phone logs on the day of the Capitol riot, saying it seems to be “suspiciously tailored” to the period when the unprecedented assault took place. Advertisement“It’s a very unusual thing for us to find, that suddenly everything goes dark for a 7-hour period in terms of tracking the movements and the conversations of the president,” Raskin said. And that is obviously of intense interest to us,” Rep. Jamie Raskin says of the gap in Pres. Trump’s call logs on Jan. 6. Although Trump tried to assert executive privilege in order to withhold official documents from Jan. 6 panel, President Joe Biden rejected those efforts and the National Archives turned over the files earlier this year.
