The committee responsible for investigating the chaotic Capitol Hill riots which took place on January 06, earlier this year plans to hold detailed public hearings “in vivid color” at 2 locations. The locations shall be, at the Capitol and in the White House as shared by Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., on Thursday.

Liz Cheney, who serves as the Vice-Chair of the select committee who also happens to be a republican, revealed that the members of the committee seek to hold “multiple weeks of public hearings” in early 2022, which is already a very significant time for both the parties with the upcoming midterm elections.

The hearings are intended to spill out “exactly what happened every minute of the day on Jan. 6 here at the Capitol and at the White House and what led to that violent attack,” Cheney said in a House Rules Committee hearing.
