The committee has released data that shows Ivanka had asked her father to intervene to stop the riots not once, but twice. Trump ignored it and let it happen.

Rep. Liz Cheney says the January 6 committee has 'firsthand testimony' that Ivanka Trump tried 'at least twice' to get her father to stop the Capitol riot

• Rep. Liz Cheney said the January 6 panel heard testimony of efforts to get Trump to stop the riot.


• "We have firsthand testimony that his daughter Ivanka went in at least twice," Cheney told ABC.


• Cheney described Trump's failure to act to quell the insurrection as "a dereliction of duty."
  

  The House Select Committee investigating the January 6 insurrection had "firsthand testimony" that former President Donald Trump watched the chaos of the Capitol riot while resisting pleas from those closest to him, including his daughter Ivanka, to step in, Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney said.

  
  

  Cheney, the panel's ranking member, discussed the committee's progress and latest findings in Sunday appearances on ABC News' "This Week" and CBS News' "Face the Nation." The panel heard testimony corroborating previous news reports and books about Trump's inaction in the face of desperate pleas to quell the riots, she said.

  
  

  "The committee has firsthand testimony now that he was sitting in the dining room next to the Oval Office watching the attack on television as the assault on the Capitol occurred," Cheney told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos. She added that Trump "could have easily" walked the few steps to the White House briefing room to tell the rioters to stand down and go home. 

  
  

  His failure to do so, Cheney said, represented "a dereliction of duty."

I have a very big problem with this. Both Ivanka and Don Jr tried to have their father make a statement to stop the riot. He ignored them. Don through Meadows and Ivanka directly.
