Ex-President Donald Trump put his Vice-President Mike Pence in danger during the January 6 Capitol riot as he illegally pressured him to quash the 2020 election, says a congressional panel.
Lawmakers have heard from Pence aides who described White House efforts to reject President Joe Biden's victory.
US democracy "withstood Trump's scheme" because Mr Pence refused to bow to Mr Trump, said chairman Bennie Thompson.
The committee has accused Mr Trump of an attempted coup to remain in power.
