Hey Renato, did we learn anything new from the January 6th Committee report?

It's complicated.

I'm Renata Mariati.

I'm a former federal prosecutor, a practicing lawyer and a legal analyst.

And I'm Asharangappa. I teach national security law at Yale University. I'm a former FBI agent and I'm a legal and national security analyst.

And we're here to help you understand topics that can't be boiled down to a sound bite or a tweet.

So, Asha, in part because I was quarantining in Europe, I ended up spending a bunch of time

over the holidays, you know, on TV appearances talking about January 6th

uh... much more than I expected and it was just

back to back to back coverage breaking down every chapter

every line

uh... it's not clear to me, you know, we talked before the holidays about, you know, I think neither of us were thinking this report was going to change things all that much. It really, it's not clear to me that anything

really did change for us.

Yeah, I mean I think what the January 6th committee report shows, I mean it's 845 pages long. They've been releasing all of these transcripts

is just the breadth and depth of the investigation they undertook.

And I think we have to really appreciate the value

that that adds because whatever comes out

of the Department of Justice,

as we discussed before, is going to be, you know, potentially a sliver of that,

whatever crosses the threshold of criminal activity, but it won't necessarily tell the whole story.

And I think that that's what this report does
