Special counsel Jack Smith's investigation into the events of January 6, 2021, revealed fresh insights into former United States President Donald Trump's lack of action during the Capitol breech, ABC News reported, citing sources.

Notably, Trump's former deputy chief of staff, Dan Scavino, disclosed exclusive details to Smith's team, stating that Trump displayed disinterest in intervening. Scavino revealed that during the chaos, Trump "was just not interested" in taking further steps to quell the riot, often remaining silently seated and watching television as the violence unfolded.

According to Smith, the findings highlight Trump's perceived indifference even when confronted with urgent situations.
