Donald Trump’s daughter and former White House adviser Ivanka Trump told the congressional panel investigating the insurrection at the US Capitol on 6 January 2021, that she does not believe her father’s false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him because of voting fraud. Ivanka Trump was seen in a video deposition, shown to the public for the first time during the first hearing of the House panel. She said her perspective changed after hearing that Bill Barr, who was Trump’s attorney general for most of 2020, until he resigned that December, had explained to her father repeatedly that he had lost the election. So I accepted what he was saying,” Ivanka Trump told congressional investigators. The committee showed a video of Barr’s appearance before panel investigators.
