Synopsis

The instant #1 New York Times bestsellerThe official report and findings of the bipartisan Congressional investigation into the January 6 attack on the Capitol, and Donald Trump’s related coup conspiracies to overthrow the election, with an original foreword by attorney and Emmy-winning MSNBC anchor Ari Melber. This edition includes an exclusive breakdown of the coup conspiracy, based on Melber’s reporting and real-time coverage, highlighting the multi-pronged plot against democracy. Only the authoritative House committee report can capture the full range of plots that have been exposed over time, from the violent attack on January 6 to related efforts revealed months after the insurrection. This definitive edition features: • New independent analysis of the coup conspiracy by MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber• The historic, official text of the House Committee report on the insurrection, including the full Executive Summary with endnotes and all chapter endnotes. • The definitive accounting of Donald Trump’s efforts to end American democracy  This is the only edition of the report featuring an additional, original analysis of the coup by a journalist and lawyer at the center of the action -- Melber has interviewed top members of this Committee, Jan. 6 rally planners and other cooperating witnesses, and Trump White House veterans ranging from Steve Bannon to Peter Navarro (now indicted for defying this probe). His report documents how Trump’s plots comprise a continuous coup conspiracy -- not a “riot” that exploded in a “single day” -- and why that factual prism is vital for accountability, justice, and preventing the next coup attempt.In chilling detail, he shows how that process might have engineered a technical effort to “override” the election on the floor of Congress—an essential map, and warning, for those who wish to protect democracy. If warnings are ignored and there is no accountability for the plotters at the top, a failed coup may become a training exercise.This report is not only a vital document in modern American history, it can also inform efforts to protect the future of American democracy. As a matter of justice, bipartisanship, and even patriotism, this report will become essential reading for any American determined to defend our democracy.

Goodreads review by Timons on March 01, 2023

I try not to wander into politics online, but it would be difficult to review this volume without doing so. Apologies in advance, and death to all trolls. I will note that I'm the kind of person who reads such things. I have read the Warren Report, I've read the 9/11 Commission Report, I've read the......more

Goodreads review by Julie on January 17, 2024

I’m not really sure how to rate a government document, but I commend the House January 6 Committee for the investigation they conducted to definitively prove the following facts: 1.) Donald Trump knew the 2020 US Presidential election was NOT stolen but continued to pedal lies about voter fraud and e......more

Obligatory reading for engaged citizens. One thing I concur with the 45th president- we can never forget January 6th, 2021. It was history in our faces.......more

Goodreads review by Sally on December 31, 2022

Reading this report was a chilling experience. I kept imagining what might have happened if the mob had grabbed Mike Pence, one of the senators or representatives, or some poor young staffer. A mob fueled by lies and violence is capable of any atrocity. Now we must wait for the Justice Department to......more

Goodreads review by Shain on February 16, 2023

I don’t follow politics closely, and I know a lot of people who believe that the attack on January 6th was either correct, innocent, or a setup to frame President Trump. However, the case laid forth in this report is unimpeachable, with its incredible thoroughness and clarity of communication. The s......more
