She testified that she didn't share dad's illusion that the election was stolen, saying
"It affected my perspective. I respect Attorney General Barr so I accepted what he said."
What did Bill Barr tell Congress?
In the waning weeks of 2020, then-Attorney General William Barr told Donald Trump that his claims of widespread election fraud were "[redacted]" and entirely unsupported by evidence.
Barr recounted his remarks to Trump in a closed-door interview with the House committee investigating the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol. As the panel kicked off the first of six hearings planned for this month, it played footage of Barr's interview in which the former attorney general recalled making clear to Trump that he did "not agree with the idea of saying the election was stolen" and saw no evidence of fraud that would have affected the election outcome.
"Frankly a year and a half later I've seen nothing to change my mind on that," Barr said.
Barr told the House committee that he spoke with Trump on at least three occasions between November and December 2020.
Recalling those conversations, Barr said he described Trump's claims of election malfeasance as "crazy stuff" and said the falsehoods were influencing the public, doing a "great, great disservice to the country." Barr credited the timing of his December 2020 resignation, in part, to Trump's baseless election claims.
"You can't live in a world where the incumbent administration stays in power based on its view, unsupported by specific evidence, that the election that there was fraud in the election," Barr said.
Meanwhile, Jared was too busy working on pardons to care what was going on:
Kushner told the panel that he was more focused on working on pardons ahead of Trump's departure than threats from White House counsel Pat Cipollone and his team to quit if the president went ahead with his bid to subvert the election.
"I kind of, like I said, my interest at that time was on trying to get as many pardons done," Kushner said in the video. "And I know that, you know, him and the team were always saying, 'Oh we're going to resign, we're not going to be here if this happens, if that happens,' so I kind of took it up to just be whining, to be honest to you."
