Jan. 6 panel releases Hannity texts, asks for cooperation
By Rebecca Beitsch - 01/04/22 05:47 PM EST The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol released a series of text messages from Sean Hannity the panel says suggests the Fox News host was aware of plans to contest President Biden’s election victory as it asked him to voluntarily cooperate with the committee.
In a letter to Hannity, the panel reviewed five communications sent by the conservative commentator among dozens in the committee’s possession, including previously unreleased texts they argue show he "had advance knowledge regarding President Trump’s and his legal team’s planning for January 6th."
On Dec. 31, Hannity appeared to express concern over losing support from the White House legal team while relaying his advice to Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows.
“We can’t lose the entire WH counsels office. I do NOT see January 6 happening the way he is being told. After the 6 th. He should announce will lead the nationwide effort to reform voting integrity. Go to Fl and watch Joe mess up daily. Stay engaged. When he speaks people will listen,” Hannity wrote that night.
