Kingzinger Thinks Some Lawmakers Knew of Insurrection

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) told the New York Times that he suspects that certain members of Congress knew what would happen on January 6 and supported the attack on the Capitol.

Said Kinzinger: “I won’t name names, but yes, I do have that suspicion. I will say, if you just looked at Twitter — the whole reason I brought my gun and kept my staff home and told my wife to stay in the apartment was looking at Twitter. I saw the threats.”

He added: “If you have members of Congress who were involved in nurturing an insurrection, heck yeah, we need to know.”
