The House select committee investigating the insurrection has in its possession video outtakes of then-President Donald Trump's message to his supporters on January 7, 2021, the day after the riot at the US Capitol.
The outtakes, first reported by The Washington Post, were part of production of a speech Trump gave the night after the riot.
The panel is expected to show clips of the outtakes during its prime-time hearing Thursday, according to sources familiar with the committee's plans. The outtakes show Trump having a difficult time working through the effort to tape the message. Trump refused to say the election results had been settled and attempted to call the rioters patriots. He also went to great lengths to not accuse them of any wrongdoing.
A spokesman for the January 6 select committee declined to comment on the outtakes.
Rep. Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat who is a member of the committee, confirmed Wednesday night to CNN's Anderson Cooper that the panel has the outtakes and plans to share some of them during the hearing.
"The President displayed extreme difficulty in completing his remarks," Raskin said on "Anderson Cooper 360."
"It's extremely revealing how exactly he went about making those statements, and we're going to let everybody see parts of that," he added.
Rep. Adam Schiff, another committee member, told CNN's Don Lemon later Wednesday that the outtakes "will be significant in terms of what the President was willing to say and what he wasn't willing to say."
The California Democrat said the outtakes will show "all of those who are urging him to say something to do something to stop the violence. You'll hear the terrible lack of a response from the President,

These idiots need a clue card asap cause most of the American people can care less about Jan 6th and this BS kangaroo committee.
The harder they go after President Trump the more I support him.
So, Trump had difficulty with his remarks, which is post January 6th, but Democrats are going after Trump for comments leading up to January 6th.
When is someone going to ask “why was the administrations request for police on January 6th ignored and how come the only shooter on January 6th still remains at large?”
Still. Did. NOT. Break. The. Law.
*note* The clips are what WE as his political enemies want you to see, and we are showing you only brief edited footage of it.
A few seconds taken out of how much raw footage that only shows a brief instant of the Presidents dialog, sure that’s going to be unbiased.
Doesn’t matter. Stop distracting them from their agenda /s
At this point, they are preaching to the choir. According to Rasmussen, over half (55%) of the American people believe that there was cheating in 2020. People are now more concerned about how to put food on the table and gas in their cars.
“You’ll hear the terrible lack of a response from the President,” -— What a bizarre statement from Jamie Rascal.
“expected to show clips of the outtakes “
Oh boy, that’s realy gonna show full contect and the whole story.
/s
Selectively edited “clips” are the ticket!
The very existence of this “Committee” is an alarm to all honest, intelligent, and benevolent people.
This is all about Trump. They couldn’t stop him with two impeachments, so they are going to do a referral to DOJ for indictment.
How many "political prisoners" are currently in jail over the Wisconsin sh tlib protest?
Why isn't Chuck Schumer in jail for openly threatening members of the Supreme Court?
How much more crap are we going to take from these cretins?
we’re going to let everybody see parts of that,” he added
which means only the parts that we can conjure up illegal innuendoes to...
It would be a great spoof if someone were to cut and paste together some outrageous statement by Trump from his various speeches.
‘You.. Must... Kill... Kill... Destroy...burn...’
ARREST HIM FOR FELONY OUTTAKES!!!!!!111!!!
I’m sure the committee will show Trump’s tweet that day telling everyone to go home (the one Twitter deleted) /s
DOJ actually indicts, and it's ON LIKE DONKEY KONG.
I shit you knots.
