Chapter 7.4 - "We're Going to Try to Get the President to Put Out a Statement" (The January 6th Report)

Author: Timberlane Media April 14, 2023 Duration: 8:23

After returning to the White House following his speech at the Ellipse, President Trump walked through the corridor from the Oval Office into the Presidential Dining Room and sat down at the table with the television remote and a Diet Coke. For the rest of the afternoon—as his country faced an hours-long attack—he hunkered down in or around the dining room, watching television. Based on notes taken by the White House Press Secretary, President Trump continued to press the idea of physically walking from the White House to the Capitol.

Ever wondered what’s actually inside those dense government reports that make headlines but few ever read? Government Unfiltered opens the filing cabinet for you. Produced by Timberlane Media, this podcast is built on a simple, powerful idea: the most crucial public documents should be heard, not just filed away. Host Dan Williams, familiar to many as the voice that brought the Mueller Report to life in audio form, continues that mission here. He reads significant government texts verbatim, providing a direct, uncommented audio stream of primary sources. It’s for anyone who wants the raw information-the exact wording, the precise findings-but finds themselves short on time to sit and read hundreds of pages, or who prefers to absorb complex material during a commute, a walk, or while doing chores. You’ll hear the contents of major investigations, policy papers, and consequential reports, delivered in a clear, steady narration. This isn’t analysis or punditry; it’s access. By turning text into sound, Government Unfiltered demystifies the workings of power and offers a uniquely transparent way to stay informed, letting you draw your own conclusions from the original documents that shape our political world.
