Ben Williamson, a deputy assistant to Trump and senior adviser to Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, reportedly was urged by a White House official during the Capitol attack to get Trump to issue a statement condemning the violence of the attack.

Christopher Liddell, the deputy chief of staff in the White House, was present on Jan. 6 and reportedly considered resigning that day, but was persuaded not to. He is to testify Nov. 30.
John McEntee, the personnel director in the Trump White House, was reportedly in the Oval Office when two of Trump’s attorneys Rudy Giuliani and Justin Clark, Trump and Pence talked about the Georgia audit process and heard Giuliani speak about seizing Dominion voting machines due to alleged fraud. McEntee also reportedly discouraged people in the Trump administration from looking for other jobs after the election because it would acknowledge Trump’s loss. He was also in the White House on Jan. 6. His deposition is scheduled for Dec. 15.
Keith Kellogg, Pence’s national security adviser, reportedly was in a meeting in January 2021 with Trump and former White House counsel Pat Cipollone in which Trump insisted Pence should not certify the election.
