David Corn notes that former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows left out some key details in his new memoir — now that we’ve seen some of the text messages he received as the January 6 insurrection unfolded.
“What a dramatic afternoon. Meadows was being besieged by lawmakers, fellow Trump officials, the stars of Fox News, and the president’s eldest son. Why would he leave all this out of his book? It’s gripping. It’s suspenseful. And why not reveal to his readers how he reacted to these pleas and what he did—or didn’t do—in response?”
