Denver Riggleman was a Republican Congressman from Virginia until 2020 when he lost his seat in a primary challenge. Today he calls himself an independent, saying the Republican party has moved away from him and turned into a cult of personality. Riggleman also served on the January 6th committee as a “senior technical adviser” — working with the committee’s team to sift through data that the committee uncovered as part of its investigation. He left that position at the end of April.
