The report's release comes three days after the panel held its final public hearing on Monday, during which they referred Trump to the Justice Department on four criminal charges, including obstruction and inciting an insurrection.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, who is chair of the panel, said earlier this week that the committee will continue to release non-sensitive witness interviews through the end of the year before the panel is sensed ahead of the new Congress.

The Insider politics team is reading through the 845-page document. We'll add the most fascinating new updates below:

  • The committee found that Trump raised "one quarter of a billion dollars" in between the election and the January 6 riots. As the report notes, the fundraising solicitations during this period repeatedly referred to unproven and nonexistent examples of election fraud. In total, Trump and the RNC sent millions of emails in this time period spreading the word the election was "rigged."
  • As the riot unfolded, top Trump officials began to privately vent about the president's rhetoric and their role in shaping it. According to the committee's report, Trump speechwriter Gabriel Robert texted someone at 2:49 p.m, "Potus im sure is loving this." The day after a different member of the speech writing team, Patrick MacDonnell, conceded of Trump's speech "maybe the rhetoric could have been better."
  • Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani's bizarre news conference held on Nov 7, 2020, at a Philadelphia landscaping company gets a brief mention in the report. "The next day, November 7th, Giuliani held a press conference at Four Seasons Total Landscaping in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He immediately began making outlandish claims, arguing that the Democrats had conspired to steal the election," the committee writes. A Getty Image of Giuliani addressing reporters at the company located across the street from a cremation center and adjacent to an adult bookstore is also included in the report's executive summary.
