January 6 committee has been talking with ex-attorney general William Barr, chairman saysThe House select committee investigating the January 6 insurrection has been having conversations with former Attorney General William Barr, the committee's chairman said Sunday.

We are concerned that our military was part of this big lie on promoting that the election was false."
The Mississippi Democrat continued, "So, if you are using the military, to potentially seize these voting machines, even though it's a discussion, the public needs to know, we've never had that before."
