Jared Kushner on Thursday appeared before the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack. Kushner is former President Donald Trump's son-in-law, and the first known close relative to speak with the panel.
Kushner served as a senior adviser to his father-in-law amid his time in the White House. During an interview with MSNBC, Rep. Elaine Luria (D-Va.), a member of the Jan. 6 committee, said Kushner appeared virtually, and it was "really valuable for us to have the opportunity to speak to him."
