The House Committee investigating the Capitol Riots believes President Trump stood idle for 187 minutes

Former U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly waited over three hours before telling his supporters to go home on January 6.

The fresh details are part of the hearings into the U.S. Capitol Riots, where pro-Trump supporters stormed the heart of U.S. democracy last year.

The panel has argued then-President Trump left the rally, watched the attacks unfold from the White House and then called on his supporters to stop.

“He could not be moved to rise from his dining room table, and walk the few steps down to the press room.”

PANEL CHAIRMAN Bennie Thompson

Bennie Thompson is the Chairman of the Panel, who says the committee’s work will not stop and will reconvene in September.

Two former Trump White House insiders testified during the hearing, which was televised as a primetime in the U.S.

Republican Vice-Chair Liz Cheney says there is still a stack of evidence to show. She says there was an “angry armed mob that President Trump sent to the Capitol… that mob was violent and destructive, and many came armed.”

President Trump denies any wrongdoing in the riots, and has called the Democratic-led committee a “kangaroo court”.

It is understood Trump has tried to contact one of the witnesses in the investigation.

RBA holds rates at 3.6%, shifting investor focus from property to potential stock market gains amid persistent inflation pressures.


The Reserve Bank of Australia has held interest rates at 3.6 percent, signalling a steady approach as inflation pressures persist and prompting investors to reassess their strategies in an uncertain climate.

The decision has shifted attention away from the property market, with experts suggesting the stock market may offer stronger opportunities, especially for those looking to outpace inflation over the long term.

We speak with Dale Gilham from Wealth Within about what the RBA’s call means for investors, why confidence in housing is changing, and what smarter financial choices look like in 2025.

U.S. retail sales weaken, raising concerns about consumer spending and economic resilience ahead of the holiday season.


Retail sales in the U.S. have unexpectedly weakened, raising new questions about consumer strength and the resilience of the economy. As Americans pull back on spending, analysts are watching closely to see whether this signals a broader shift toward caution in the lead-up to the holiday shopping period.

The slowdown has amplified uncertainty around the Federal Reserve’s next move on interest rates, as policymakers weigh mixed economic signals against cooling demand. With some categories falling sharply, economists warn that faltering retail activity could ripple into GDP forecasts and overall market confidence.

Brad Gastwirth from Circular Technologies joins us to break down which categories were hit hardest, why shoppers are becoming more value-conscious, and what this means for the economy heading into 2025.
