Investigators from the House select committee probing the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol have found gaps in the White House phone records on the day of the insurrection, reports The New York Times.
Investigators were unable to find the logs of calls by former President Trump during hours on that day when they know he was sometimes on the phone.
There is no evidence that official logs were changed or deleted, the Times reports, and Trump often used his personal phone or those of aides for calls.
At least one call directed to Trump on the day of the Capitol riot was picked up by an aide.
Trump is known to have spoken to GOP Sens. Mike Lee (Utah) and Tommy Tuberville (Ala.), but the call was not present in the official records shared with the investigative committee, according to the Times.

There’s a story going around that Trump’s inner circle used burner cells that day, so it would be reasonable to conclude Trump may have used one too.
