A federal judge in Washington, D.C. has issued a split decision in a lawsuit brought against former President Donald Trump by the partner of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, ruling that the wrongful death claim lacked standing but allowing other claims to move forward. The suit seeks unspecified damages and a trial date has not yet been set. Cellphone data could fill in gaps of Trump's actions on January 6.

On Monday, Fox News host Tucker Carlson aired newly released footage from the January 6, 2021 US Capitol attack on his show. Carlson used the footage to falsely claim that no riot happened on Jan. 6, despite the attack leaving five people dead and resulting in more than 300 arrests. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) granted Carlson access to the footage, and Capitol Police have warned that its release could pose a security risk. It is unclear if the footage will be released to the public or remain in the hands of Carlson and McCarthy.
