In his testimony, he said that he decided to resign from the administration, where he'd worked since the beginning of Trump's term, when he saw the president's 2:24 p.m. tweet deriding Vice President Mike Pence.

An aide handed him a sheet of paper with Trump's tweet on it, Pottinger testified. It "disturbed" him that Trump was attacking Pence for carrying out his constitutional duty in overseeing the certification of Biden's presidential victory, he said.

"I simply didn't want to be associated with the events that were unfolding at the Capitol," he said, adding that the tweet added "fuel to the fire." ...

Since resigning, Matthews has been critical of Trump. On the one year anniversary of the attacks, Matthews tweeted that the Capitol riot was a "coup attempt" and said Trump "failed to meet the moment." ...

"Basically, the president got everyone riled up, told everyone to head on down, so we were following what he said," Ayres said. As the attack on the Capitol began and members of Congress and Vice President Mike Pence were forced into secure locations amid the insurrection, ...
