Disclosure adds new detail to the closed inquiry into the steps Trump took in the run-up to the Capitol riot to undo his 2020 election loss
The FBI in 2023 analysed phone records of more than half a dozen Republican lawmakers as part of an investigation into efforts by US President Donald Trump to overturn the results of the 2020 election, according to information released on Monday by Republican senators.
The records enabled investigators to see basic information about the date and time of the calls but not the content of the communications, the senators said.
The data encompassed several days during the week of January 6, 2021, when pro-Trump rioters stormed the US Capitol in a failed bid to halt the certification of the election results.
