Riggleman: White House switchboard called a Capitol rioter on January 6

Riggleman told Whitaker that he expressed his concerns to the committee, "I was one of those individuals, sadly, at the beginning, you know, where I was very, very aggressive about these linked connections, getting those White House phone numbers."

In a statement to 60 Minutes, a spokesperson for the January 6 Committee said in part, "In his role on the Select Committee staff, Mr. Riggleman had limited knowledge of the committee's investigation. He departed from the staff in April prior to our hearings and much of our most important investigative work…Since his departure, the Committee has run down all the leads and digested and analyzed all the information that arose from his work…and a thorough report will be published by the end of the year."
