The House select committee investigating the Capitol attack has issued subpoenas to six of Donald Trumps associates involved in the effort to overturn the results of the 2020 election from a command center at the Willard Hotel in Washington DC.
The subpoenas demanding documents and testimony open a new line of inquiry into the coordinated strategy by the White House and the Trump campaign to stop the certification of Joe Bidens election win, and whether it was connected to the 6 January insurrection.
House investigators on Monday targeted six Trump officials connected to the Willard: the legal scholar John Eastman, Trumps campaign manager Bill Stepien, Trumps adviser Jason Miller, the former national security adviser Michael Flynn, Trumps campaign aide Angela McCallum, and the former New York police department commissioner Bernard Kerik.
The select committee chairman, Bennie Thompson, said in a statement that the panel was pursuing the Trump officials in order to uncover every detail about their efforts to overturn the election, including who they were talking to in the White House and in Congress.
