The texts

Congressman Jason Crow, a former army ranger, discusses the revealed texts of Mark Meadows, Trumpo's former Chief of Staff, which show that Republican congressmen, Fox news hosts, and Trump Jr., among others, asked the Chief of Staff to get Trump to call off his January 6 mob, then attacking the Capitol.

The texts make clear that the writers of the texts all knew Trump had incited the mob, that the intended purpose of the mob was to disrupt the election count, and that only Trump had the power to call off his dogs, so to speak. If a foreign actor had done this, people would be calling for his imprisonment, at the very least.
