Calls have been issued for Ivanka Trumps texts from January 6, the day of the insurrection, to be released after South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham revealed she was a conduit to then-President Donald Trump.
Texts handed over to the House panel investigating the Capitol riot by former Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows before he ceased his cooperation with the committee have revealed that Fox News hosts and Mr Trumps eldest son Donald Trump Jr texted Mr Meadows on January 6 urging him to get Mr Trump to call off his supporters and tell them to go home.
Mr Graham has said that he didnt text with Mr Meadows on January 6, but told CNNs Manu Raju that he spoke with Ivanka Trump and asked her to send a message to her father to tell his people to leave.

His inner circle still didnt think this was enough. At 3.15pm, Ms Trump retweeted Mr Trumps message and added: American Patriots - any security breach or disrespect to our law enforcement is unacceptable. The violence must stop immediately. Please be peaceful.
She quickly deleted it after being roundly slammed for addressing the rioters as patriots.

LG doesn't do speaking the truth, at least not on purpose. Except when he is expressing being "pissed". And then five minutes later, he takes it all back.
just reminding folks who this slimy drunken weasel is .
