Sunday Rolling Stone magazine published an article by Hunter Walker based on conversations that he has had with a pair of Trump rally organizers who appear to have been at the center of planning the rally on Capitol Hill on January 6th that preceded the attack on the US Capitol. The magazine is also purporting to have verification of the material by another person who was involved with the planning of the rally - and all three sources have been cooperating with the congressional committee that is investigating the attack.
The meat of the Rolling Stone article centers on a list of seven members of Congress whom the organizers say were either involved directly in the planning of the rally, or were connected to the event through staff members involved in the planning. The two individuals coming forth with this information appear to be particularly distressed that the it turned violent and that no one connected with the White House made an effort to intercede and stop the physical attack on the Capitol.
The seven Republican members of the House of Representatives who have been identified by the by the rally organizers are: Paul Gosar and Andy Biggs of Arizona, Louis Gohmert of Texas, Mo Brooks of Alabama, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Lauren Boebert of Colorado, and Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina. Gosar, in particular, is being singled out for having implied to the organizers of the rally that Trump would be covering any legal consequences for their actions with blanket pardons, something which never happened.
Of the seven members named as having some connection to the planning of the day's events, three - Boebert, Cawthorn, and Greene - had been members of Congress for less than a week when the treachery of January 6th unfolded.
The House committee investigating the insurrection at the Capitol by American terrorists on January 6th has been apprised of this blockbuster revelation - and it is also being reported and detailed in credible American and international press outlets. It's time for these seven members of Congress to be called before the committee and to submit their testimony, under oath, regarding any involvement that they had in connection with the events of that deadly and treasonous day.
Democracy demands a full accounting and appropriate justice.

Time to invoke section three of the Fourteenth Amendment.
"Section 3.
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."
