Ivanka Trump appeared remotely before the Jan. 6 committee on Tuesday morning and spoke with members about the events surrounding the Capitol Hill insurrection into the afternoon, according to the committee chairman.
The daughter and onetime adviser to former President Donald Trump appeared less than a week after her husband Jared Kushner, whose testimony several members said was considered "helpful" to the committee.
Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., issued a letter in January seeking Ivanka Trump's voluntary cooperation, after the committee had uncovered new evidence about her activities on the day of the siege, which included multiple attempts to get her father to intervene in the attack. She wasthe first Trump family member approached by the committee to voluntarily appear.
"She's answering questions — not in broad chatty terms — but she's answering questions," Thompson told reporters Tuesday afternoon before entering the House chamber for votes.

I’d be willing some of her testimony will leak to the public in the near future. It will be interesting to see what she was asked and how she answered.
