It would be great if we could also get to the bottom of this reporting -- that as of 4:13 p.m. on January 6, a "source close to the White House" was also in touch with some of the rioters and knew what their plans were for the evening.

A source close to the White House who is in touch with some of the rioters at the Capitol said it's the goal of those involved to stay inside the Capitol through the night.

We need to go deeper. We need to hold anyone accountable that knew and either helped or turned a blind eye.
