January 6 committee releases final report
Fox News contributor Jason Chaffetz and Democratic strategist Kevin Walling discuss the final report release from the January 6 committee on ‘Fox News @ Night.’

Bowser’s reflections on the Jan. 6 riots have been made public in the recently released transcripts of committee hearings.
