The article from MSNBC's Rachel Maddow Blog discusses the controversy surrounding a report from the Manhattan Institute (MAHA) that was cited by the White House to defend former President Donald Trump's actions during the January 6th Capitol riot.

The White House struggled to defend its use of the report, with Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre initially standing by the report but later admitting that the administration was unaware of the inaccuracies. The incident raised questions about the White House's vetting process and its reliance on potentially unreliable sources to support its political arguments.
