- Rep. Liz Cheney said Thursday: We have much work yet to do.”
- Whether people will be charged remains up to the Justice Department.
- A full Jan. 6 report has been promised this fall.
After more than 100 subpoenas, dozens of depositions and millions of viewers, the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol concluded its eighth hearing Thursday with little resolution, even more questions and the promise of more hearings.
In his opening remarks, the committee’s chairman, Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said more hearings are coming in September. The panel’s vice chair, Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., signaled the committee hasn’t hit its end point.
