TL;DR Summary

Dan Scavino, a former aide to Donald Trump, has reportedly told the special counsel that Trump was "just not interested" in taking additional steps to curtail the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, but was instead "very angry" about the "stolen election." Scavino's testimony corroborates previous accounts of Trump's reaction to the riot and his reluctance to take action. Despite initially citing executive privilege, Scavino cooperated with the special counsel's office, providing key insights into Trump's activities on that day. The Department of Justice declined to pursue charges against Scavino, and Trump has denied any wrongdoing in the indictments against him.
