Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, have been subpoenaed to testify to a grand jury about her father's role in the Jan. 6 insurrection after losing his bid for re-election
, and was present during the call her father placed to Pence in an attempt to pressure him to stop the congressional certification of the Electoral College results documenting President Joe Biden’s victory. Pence rejected Trump’s demands, and Ivanka accompanied her father to the Ellipse near the White House where a large crowd of his supporters had gathered. Hundreds moved from the rally to the Capitol, chanting “Hang Mike Pence!” and attacked the building.
Although Ivanka Trump and her husband served as senior advisors in the former president’s administration, Ivanka has stated that she does not plan to be involved in politics “going forward.” Last December, Trump claimed on Truth Social that he “never asked Jared or Ivanka to be part of the 2024 campaign for president and, in fact, specifically asked them not to do it.”
