"Jan. 6 Committee Deleted Over 100 Encrypted Files Before GOP Majority: Sources"

The former House Select Committee on Jan. 6 deleted over 100 encrypted files just before Republicans took over the House majority, prompting an investigation by the House Administration Committee's Oversight Subcommittee led by Chairman Barry Loudermilk. The new GOP-led panel discovered that the former committee failed to turn over all documents from its investigation, with 117 deleted and encrypted files recovered by a digital forensics team. Loudermilk is demanding access to the recovered files and unedited transcripts of White House and DHS testimony, accusing the previous committee of obstructing the investigation into the Capitol riot.
