Former White House deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews watches as former deputy national security adviser Matt Pottinger testifies during the July 21 hearing. Pottinger served on Trump's National Security Council before resigning in the immediate aftermath of the January 6 attack. In his testimony, he said that Trump's tweet calling Vice President Mike Pence a "coward" essentially was "fuel being poured on the fire" the day of the insurrection. "I was disturbed and worried to see that the President was attacking Vice President Pence for doing his constitutional duty," Pottinger said.

Recorded testimony from former Trump adviser Rudy Giuliani is played during the June 13 hearing. The committee said it had evidence showing how Trump cast aside his legal team after his election loss and replaced them with conspiracy-pushing advisers like Giuliani. "Trump rejected the advice of his campaign experts on election night, and instead followed the course recommended by an apparently inebriated Rudy Giuliani, to just claim that he won," Cheney said in her opening statement. The panel later played a clip from Trump spokesman Jason Miller, whose said in his deposition that "the mayor was definitely intoxicated" at the White House on election night. Giuliani has denied any wrongdoing related to the efforts to overturn the election.
