The committee investigating January 6 and the attack on Congess opened with bombshell video footage on Thursday that showed a number of his most trusted aides and advisers, including his daugher Ivanka Trump, explaining that they knew the election was not stolen.
...She spoke of her perspective being changed after hearing that Bill Barr, who was Trump’s attorney general for most of 2020, until he resigned that December, had explained to her father repeatedly that he had lost the election.
“I respect Attorney General Barr. So I accepted what he was saying,” Ivanka Trump told congressional investigators.
The committee showed a video of Barr’s appearance before panel investigators. In that video, Barr called his former boss’s fraud claims “bullshit” and said that he had “repeatedly told the president in no uncertain terms that I did not see evidence of fraud that would have affected the outcome of the election. And frankly, a year and a half later, I still haven’t.”
He added that he told the president at the time that there was “zero basis” for his allegations that the election was rigged against him.
Barr said he spoke to Donald Trump shortly after the November 2020 result and “I made it clear to him that I did not agree with the idea of saying the election was stolen, and putting out this stuff, which I told the president was bullshit, and I didn’t want to be a part of it.”

Trump is surrounded with ingrates who are ready to toss him under the bus.
Well that was convincing . . .
Yeah right.
What an ingrate and failure to appreciate her blessings.
.
The Power of the Media.
See it every day.
This was already known, or at least I read that was her belief not long after The Great Voter Fraud of 2020 happened.
Adult children are often going to have their own beliefs.
Ivanka, of all people would have nothing to fear from saying that to her father’s face. She has always been his spoiled Princess, and she knows it.
The committee is conflating the events at the Capitol with Trump’s opinion about the election, and whether other people agreed with him.
These are very different things.
Hilary Clinton repeatedly said Trump was an “illegitimate” president, and that he knew it. She was totally wrong.
Whether Trump was right about the election is not the same issue as supporting a Capitol incursion.
She needs to see 2000 Mules.
PING
Check out comment # 1.
What that really is, is a carefully worded non-incriminating non-answer.
She couldn’t be bothered to watch 2,000 Mules?
The story is not making a lick of sense.
If the American Public actually voted in Brain-Dead Biden then they deserve every shafting that Biden and democrats give them.
The rest of us will hunker down and hope this administration will fall to an HONEST ELECTION in the future.
Well, Ivanka’s human and Ivanka’s wrong. There’s no way she has researched the issue the way people dedicated to study all the data have researched it with full dedication and delving for hundreds and hundreds of hours. She is busy with several young children and with keeping herself looking in tip top beautiful shape and spending time with her husband and social communities. She is naive and she is wrong. Daughters can be wrong. Ivanka is flat out lacking in the bona fide information on what happened in state after state, community after community, what the issues of voter rolls being horrendously wrong, more votes being cast than live votere in the counties, destroyed votes, extra votes, duplicate votes, non-citizen votes, dead people votes - all of this to such a scale that the election was stolen from the man who got the most votes. Ivanka, go back to designing clothes and looking like a Vogue model. Your dad was the target of an historic wrong. Wake up, Ivanka. You’re listening to people giving you bogus information - shall we say “fake news.”
That just means she’s not too bright. It’s totally irrelevant to the accusations being made against Pres. Trump.
By 2017, the Kushners had shown they had their own agenda, at odds with the one that Trump ran on.
Correct.
I’m just astounded that a woman who got everything from daddy and due to daddy, then tosses him under the bus. Meghan markle, Ivanka trump, the same
Barr is a lawyer.
Most lawyers aren't that good with numbers.
They have "people" for that.
Took me about a year to figure it out [where I can show with numbers what went on], and I'm good with numbers.
Pissant BushLeague RINO. The man is on the side of proxy wars with Russia over things that don't matter, and two tier justice, and coddling leftist rioters, and inflation through the roof, and not defending borders.
“The committee is conflating the events at the Capitol with Trump’s opinion about the election, and whether other people agreed with him.‘
I noticed that as well. It reeks of desperation.
Ivanka’s opinion doesn’t make a pile of shiite difference.
DjT’s did, and does, as he’s —once again per usual— being proven right with each week’s revelations from Michigan, or Pennsylvania, Arizona, Wisconsin....
It’s her opinion. I see it as an ignorant opinion but I don’t see it as tossing her father under the bus. I’m certain he doesn’t.
As another poster said, it’s a non-answer. Considering the context of giving the non-answer, a partisan witch hunt run by hobgoblins, it may be nothing more than a legal self defense.
I don’t think her father would object to her not stepping in a legal snare.
