NPR Investigation: Government Efforts to Erase January 6 Information
In the wake of the fifth anniversary of the January 6th Capitol attack, NPR’s investigation reveals efforts by the Trump administration to suppress information regarding the event. This includes the deletion of records, the removal of references to the event as a riot, and the hiring of individuals who deny the severity of the attack. Despite such efforts, the investigation highlights evidence of pre-planned violence, the use of weapons, and intentions to overthrow the government. Additionally, the report details the physical and psychological toll the attack took on law enforcement.
