Mississippi Rep. Bennie Thompson said Tuesday that the committee “won’t rush the effort” in order to make clear they have given him multiple opportunities to comply. Still, lawmakers are prepared to hold Meadows in contempt in the coming weeks if he doesn’t give them any information about his role as the Capitol was attacked that day.
