The Jan. 6 committee showed an email former Trump lawyer John Eastman sent to Rudy Giuliani requesting a presidential pardon from President Trump.
Members showed part of an email where Mr. Eastman said he decided he wanted a pardon, after the riot on Jan. 6, 2021.
“Third, I’ve decided that I should be on the pardon list, if that is still in the works,” Mr. Eastman wrote to Mr. Giuliani.
The revelation supports the committee’s notion that there was a pardon list for all those involved with the plans to overturn the 2020 election, which resulted in the Capitol breach.
