PSAKI says Biden has decided he will NOT invoke executive privilege on Trump's behalf to shield any of his White House records from the Jan. 6 committee.
"The president has already concluded that it would not be appropriate to assert executive privilege," Psaki says after indicating Trump has yet to formally ask him to do so.
Context: Current law says sitting president has a role in deciding whether predecessor records are privileged. If he and Trump disagree, Trump has 60 days to take it to court. This has never been litigated before. Good primer from @woodruffbets here: politico.com/news/2021/09/1…

NEW: Bennie Thompson and Liz Cheney had never even met before the Jan. 6 committee was formed. Now they’re inseparable, talking and texting daily — developing a genuinely warm, and consequential, rapport.

@Olivia_Beavers and I look at their relationship: politico.com/news/2021/09/2…
Thompson, who grew up in the segregated south, and Cheney, the scion of a conservative dynasty, are an unlikely duo.

But Thompson calls her “a great patriot, a great American, a good family person” Dems can trust.” And Cheney returns that praise in kind. politico.com/news/2021/09/2…
The strategic value: It’s good for each of them for the 1/6 probe to be viewed as bipartisan.

But Thompson and others also told us the bond is real. Clyburn told us it was Thompson — not Pelosi or leadership — who decided to name Cheney vice chair. politico.com/news/2021/09/2…

Heavy police presence ringing the Capitol this morning, fleet of plows for crowd control, clear ‘police line’ signage and police vans for mass arrests situations at the ready. Security not messing around. Image
Some Three Percenter regalia here, including one man with a ‘Vietnam Veteran’ hat and jacket . Several affiliated with these loose anti-govt groups were arrested after Jan. 6. ImageImage

NEW: Playbook scoops an important moment on the 1/6 timeline. MELANIA Trump was informed of the violence at the Capitol at least *an hour before* Trump tweeted his 2:24 pm attack on VP Pence.

Further undercuts the paper-thin claim that Trump wasn’t aware Pence faced danger.
The timestamp is from former MELANIA chief of staff and former WH press secretary Stephanie Grisham’s new book, an excerpt obtained by @dlippman.

Rioters had surrounded the building around 1 and breached it just after 2.
Melania Trump’s records — including potentially this text and any others surrounding it — are among those the Jan. 6 committee in the House are likely to attempt to obtain from telecom companies and the National Archives.
