Who do you think the Congressmembers briefed on January 4th are?

I think off the top of my Head but many others)

Senate: Hawley, Cruz, Graham, and Lee. Maybe McConnell

Representatives:

McCarthy
Gosar
Nunes
Boebert
Greene

Probably all who voted to not certify the election

Here’s a link to those:

I doubt McConnell. He has known that TFG is a toxic mess and wants to distance himself.

Ultimately, I hope we will find out.

Jan 5th that he would be counting electoral votes because it was likely pence would not attend congress.

Then add Gaetz and Jordon as well as Ron Johnson

They are so dumb and loud they would have leaked how important they were being included in the collusion.

Whether she was briefed with the big kids, or not, she has her fingerprints on this.
Just the sheer delight some of them seemed to get from this coup attempt makes my skin crawl.

Hope the whole lot of them get swept up, charged, convicted and dressed in orange and live rent free for 20 years.
