Ivanka Trump spoke to the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6. Capitol riot for around eight hours on Tuesday, according to the panel’s chairman. The former president’s daughter came “in on her own,” without being compelled by a subpoena, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) told Capitol Hill reporters. “That has obviously significant value.” Her virtual testimony lasted around eight hours, according to the chairman. Ivanka spoke “not in broad, chatty terms, but she’s answering questions,” he added. When asked if the former first daughter had shed any new insights on the insurrection, Thompson shot back: “Good try.” His committee first reached out to Ivanka in January, just after it was told by former national security adviser Keith Kellogg about her efforts to convince her father to deter the mob trying to overrun the Capitol. A “pretty tenacious” Ivanka entreated the then-president at least twice, Kellogg said.
