"SNIP......
A federal judge on Thursday skewered former President Donald Trumps attempt to block the National Archives from complying with the Jan. 6 Committee to Investigate the Attack on the U.S. Capitol by claiming the subpoenas lacked a legislative purpose, Law & Crime reports.
Said U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan: The Jan. 6 riots happened in the Capitol. That is literally Congresss house.

(11,738 posts)The National Archive was planning to release the documents regardless, unless they were specifically ordered not to by the court so if this is that judge that was reviewing the request, and that is what the judge had to say, I would imagine that those records will be in Congress' hands soon enough.
We can't expect anything else from Trump. That is the way we ALL knew he operated since he came down the gold escalator and started his candidacy with a lie and an insult. He uses the courts to harass people and to try to cover his tracks. The point is that the committee will get the records and will know what Trump was up to.
