A House panel investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol incursion found that files were deleted and encrypted by Pelosi’s appointed panel before the new GOP-controlled panel took over.

The files have been recovered, revealing potential obstruction. Republican Rep. Loudermilk is demanding access to the files and unredacted transcripts of interviews.

He raised concerns about missing videotapes affecting the accuracy of remaining transcripts.

“It’s obvious that Pelosi’s Select Committee went to great lengths to prevent Americans from seeing certain documents produced in their investigation,” Loudermilk stated. “It also appears that Bennie Thompson and Liz Cheney intended to obstruct our Subcommittee by failing to preserve critical information and videos as required by House rules.”

“The American people deserve to know the full truth, and Speaker [Mike] Johnson has empowered me to use all tools necessary to recover these documents to get the truth, and I will,” he said.

“As you acknowledged in your July 7, 2023 letter, the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol (Select Committee) did not archive all Committee records as required by House Rules,” Loudermilk wrote.

“You wrote that you sent specific transcribed interviews and depositions to the White House and Department of Homeland Security but did not archive them with the Clerk of the House,” he said.

He noted that Thompson “claimed that you turned over 4-terabytes of digital files, but the hard drives archived by the Select Committee with the Clerk of the House contain less than 3- terabytes of data.”

“One recovered file disclosed the identity of an individual whose testimony was not archived by the Select Committee,” he wrote. “Further, we found that most of the recovered files are password-protected, preventing us from determining what they contain.”

The investigation is entering a new phase with full support from Speaker Johnson.
