On the day the Jan. 6 committee hearings began, the American Conservative Union launched a website to publish information about the attack.
The site, J6Facts.org, was created to “debunk the lies told by the corrupt members of the January 6th Committee,” according to a Twitter account by the same name. This Twitter account also seemingly launched Thursday, issuing its first tweet that day. As of this report, the account has 239 followers.
“It’s a place to go and get the facts,” ACU Chairman Matt Schlapp explained. He also claimed it will be run by political operatives.

Schlapp, who is also in charge of organizing the Conservative Political Action Conference, shared a tweet from Lincoln Project founder Rick Wilson, who railed against the site.
“It would be a shame [if] the CPAC pro-Trump propaganda account [J6 Facts] became filled with actual 1/6 facts,” Wilson said. “A damn shame.”

“Thanks for the plug [Rick Wilson] so glad you are still trying to keep up,” Schlapp responded.
In the same vein, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) accused the committee of attempting to prevent former President Donald Trump from running again. Their hearings come 18 months following the riots. They reportedly had over 140,000 documents and over 470 tips via their phone line to sift through.
