Is TFG claiming he approved his lawyer and aide could talk to the Jan 6 committee more lies?

After he learned they would without his approval? That way it makes it not look so bad for him they ignored him. I don't believe he wanted them talking at all, and he's lying . That's more his pattern, and he knows he's losing power and control as more go , and talk about what happened.

I hadn't heard about it, and it didn't come up in a quick google news search.

But yes, if he said he approved it, it's likely because he couldn't stop it. It's his version of Peewee Herman's "I meant to do that."

I was trying to find authors. Sounded like a Maggie Haberman special, but couldn't get beyond paywall.

Either I missed it or it's something further buried.
