Trump Subpoena Issued, Setting Up Showdown With Jan. 6 Panel
The House committee investigating last year’s attack on the Capitol issued a subpoena to Donald Trump, demanding the former president account for his actions under oath and initiating a legal showdown that could test the persistence of presidential prerogatives after leaving office.
“As demonstrated in our hearings, we have assembled overwhelming evidence, including from dozens of your former appointees and staff, that you personally orchestrated and oversaw a multi-part effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election and to obstruct the peaceful transition of power,” committee Chair Bennie Thompson and Vice Chair Liz Cheney wrote in a letter to Trump accompanying the subpoena.
