One year ago, the House Select Committee on January 6 through its summer series of hearings laid out in great detail public evidence of how former President Donald Trump and many MAGA leaders tried to stop the peaceful transfer of power after Trump knowingly lost the 2020 presidential election. On top of this, through two business meetings in the fall and winter, and its final report, the Committee presented its final findings and conclusions to the American people: Trump and allies like John Eastman engaged in a criminal conspiracy to seize and hold power. As the Committee wrapped its work, it also issued criminal referrals to and shared investigative materials with the Department of Justice (DOJ).

Earlier this week, law enforcement sources confirmed that Donald Trump received a letter informing him that he is a target in their investigation around efforts to overthrow the 2020 election results and block the will of the people on January 6. As we await expected federal criminal charges in the Special Counsel probe, as well as from Fulton County prosecutors in Georgia, not only have new revelations like Trump’s reported call to Arizona Governor Doug Ducey surfaced, we also have seen even more confirmation that there is no evidence of widespread 2020 voter fraud as well as encouraging progress toward accountability. Notably, to date, more than 1,069 individuals have been arrested for crimes related to January 6 – with “more than 350 individuals charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement” – and more than 600 people so far have been convicted of January 6 crimes.

On the eve of the anniversary of the last January 6 Select Committee summer series hearing, below is a refresher of the top ten key findings from the Select Committee on January 6’s critical work as well as a roundup of new revelations and recent developments:
