Written by Site Hub on October 22, 2022
During the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, they have officially subpoenaed (or called to court) former President Donald Trump for testimony under oath and for records. The subpoena requires Trump to produce the documents by Nov. 4 and to appear for testimony on or about Nov. 14.
Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., the panel’s chair, and Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., its vice chair, wrote a letter to Trump, stating: “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…In short, you were at the center of the first and only effort by any U.S. President to overturn an election and obstruct the peaceful transition of power, ultimately culminating in a bloody attack on our own Capitol and on the Congress itself.”
