Conservative activist Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, has agreed to sit down for a voluntary interview with the House Jan. 6 select committee, her lawyer confirmed to Axios on Wednesday.
Why it matters: Texts obtained by the Washington Post and CBS News show that she played an active role in encouraging then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows to take steps to help overturn the 2020 election results. She has said she attended the Jan. 6 rally that preceded the deadly riot at the Capitol but left before the insurrection.
