Fact Check: Bennie Thompson Falsely Claims
Police ‘Killed’ in Capitol Riot
Posted By: Imright, 7/21/2022 10:33:07 PM
CLAIM: President Donald Trump failed to stop rioters who were “savagely beating and killing law enforcement officers.” VERDICT: FALSE. While some rioters attacked police, they did not kill any; the only person killed was a fellow rioter. The January 6 Committee held its eighth public hearing on Thursday, and its second in prime time. The event was billed as a crucial moment, the last scheduled hearing and one in which damning evidence would be revealed about Trump’s role. Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), the chair of the committee, opened proceedings by addressing the hearing remotely, since he was recently diagnosed with COVID-19.
