Jan. 6 committee says Trump must start turning over records next week
Former President Trump must begin turning over documents related to the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection next week, according to a statement from the leaders of the House select committee investigating the attack.

Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and Vice Chair Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) said in a statement Friday that they have informed Trump’s counsel of that new deadline. The former president was originally supposed to provide the documents by Friday, under the terms of the committee’s subpoena.

The members of the committee unanimously approved issuing a subpoena to Trump for records and testimony at the conclusion of its final public hearing last month.

Thompson and Cheney said Trump is under subpoena to sit for a deposition on Nov. 14. They said they have received correspondence from Trump and his counsel in connection with the subpoena.

The subpoena details 19 areas of inquiry that the committee wishes to discuss with him in relation to the insurrection and efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

Testimony from many witnesses who testified during public hearings before the committee since the start of the summer detailed efforts to overturn the election results, culminating in the insurrection.

Trump did not immediately return a request from The Hill for comment through his Save America PAC.
Trump is reportedly looking at Nov. 14, the day he is supposed to testify before the committee, as a potential day to launch a third bid for the White House in 2024.

have you ever tried to pull teeth from a shark, in the middle of an ocean, at night, in a storm?...they might as well go ahead and get the contempt charge ready. trump will lie, destroy documents so he can't produce them, and plead the fifth so many times if you added them all together, it would come out to billions.
he'll NEVER cooperate, in any way, everything will have to be dragged out of him like a tapeworm that doesn't want to go.

The Committee should have allowed him to testify in public, prime time. There’s no way trump resists the urge to try and get even. I’m pretty sure he’d call Adam Schiff “shifty”, to his face. lol. He’d blow a gasket like Col. Jessup in “A few good men” and admit to the whole damn thing.

He is a simpleton, after all.

Supreme Court clears way for Jan. 6 panel to access records of Arizona GOP chair
The Supreme Court on Monday cleared the way for the House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection to access phone records belonging to the Arizona Republican Party’s chairwoman.

The brief order was unsigned, but conservative Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito indicated they would have granted the request for relief filed by Kelli Ward, the GOP chairwoman, and her husband.

The Jan. 6 panel — which has subpoenaed T-Mobile, Ward’s phone carrier — has expressed interest in her role as a phony pro-Trump elector following his loss in Arizona during the 2020 election.

Ward and her husband, Michael Ward, were among a group of 11 Arizonans who signed a fake election certificate purporting to show that former President Trump won the state.

The couple sought emergency relief in the Supreme Court after lower courts denied their bid to shield the records that congressional investigators are pursuing as part of their probe of last year’s pro-Trump riot at the Capitol.

The Jan. 6 House committee has described the multi-state attempt to put forth fake Trump electors as central to the effort to overturn Trump’s defeat, which eventually led to the riot.

The Wards, for their part, have portrayed the Jan. 6 investigation as politically motivated, and told the justices in court papers that their case carried “profound precedential implications” for the constitutional right to free political association.

Last month, a divided panel on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit voted 2-1 to deny the Wards’ request for an order barring T-Mobile from complying with the Jan. 6 panel’s subpoena for records spanning the run-up to the Nov. 2020 election through January 2021.

Earlier in the case, a federal judge in Arizona rejected the Wards’ request to quash the subpoena, prompting their unsuccessful appeal.

OMG! Check this sound byte out..I thought he was going to cry.

Trump failed to comply with Jan. 6 committee subpoena to testify, panel says
Former U.S. president Donald Trump has failed to comply with a subpoena issued by the congressional committee investigating his supporters' attack on the U.S. Capitol last year, the panel said on Monday.

The Jan. 6 select committee announced on Oct. 21 that it had sent a subpoena to Trump requiring documents be submitted by Nov. 4 and for him to appear for deposition testimony beginning on or about Nov. 14.

On Nov. 4, it said it had agreed to give Trump an extension before producing the documents after hearing from one of his attorneys. But the panel said then that it wanted the documents the next week and that the Nov. 14 deadline remained in place.


"The truth is that Donald Trump, like several of his closest allies, is hiding from the Select Committee's investigation and refusing to do what more than a thousand other witnesses have done," Committee Chair Bennie Thompson and Vice-Chair Liz Cheney said in a statement.

Trump filed a lawsuit on Friday seeking to avoid being compelled to testify or provide any documentation to the congressional panel.

The committee has held a series of hearings as it seeks to make its case to the public that Trump was largely responsible for the deadly assault on Congress while lawmakers met to formally declare his loss to Democrat Joe Biden.

The panel has not said how it will proceed if Trump disregards the subpoena request.

Seeing a woman's ankle makes that fuckin weirdo cry.

Now here is a guy Garland takes seriously. Donald's Georgia trial will be on TV, federal trials are not, and it will make all the difference to his TV watching base. Garland will indict him over the documents and obstruction before Georgia indicts him over election crimes and possible conspiracy over the fake electors too. If he's in federal custody, he could well show up in Georgia in orange, chains and on TV, with bad hair.

Where he's going, they might not even allow combs! I'm just saying if Garland indicts him, he has a speedy trial (it's simple and he has no defense), the cuffs will go on in court upon conviction. Who knows, fate may grant us Donald in federal custody when he appears for his plea hearing in Georgia, or perhaps when he shows up for the TV trial a few weeks later. Remember truth has been much stranger than fiction lately and ya can't make this stuff up, though I try! I think someone engaged a probability drive near earth and I expect to see whales falling from the sky.

With this election result in the house I doubt he will be visiting Donald in the big house now. I wouldn't be surprised to see Nancy as speaker with a minority, if idiots like MTG make sanity impossible inside the GOP. We will see, but it might be down to one or two seats in the house and moderates will have as much control as the nutcases, more so, because they can align with the democrats and compromise with them. Nancy is an expert at such governance and votes might not be along party lines with the GOP, especially when Trump is removed from the scene.

Easy to say now the Republicans have the House.

Since time is short, they’re spreading the load to get some of it done. Those legislators need to get stomped for flouting the subpoenas. I especially wanna see McCarthy face the music.

The lapdog VP’s sanctimonious hypocrisy on crisp display.
