The unanimous vote could set up an unprecedented confrontation amid multiple ongoing probes into the former President's attempt to overturn the 2020 election
January 6th Committee Votes to Subpoena Former President Donald Trumpn a move that marks a turning point in the Jan. 6 committee’s investigation, the panel voted Thursday to subpoena former President Donald Trump over his role in the Capitol attack.
The vote to subpoena Trump came at the conclusion of the Jan. 6 panel’s ninth investigative hearing and its first since August, and as the committee is winding down its work. The panel is preparing to publish its final report sometime this fall, which will lay out its findings in narrative detail and put forth proposals to thwart any future insurrections or attempted coups. The House resolution establishing the select committee says it’s to be terminated 30 days after issuing the report.
In an email, sent on Oct. 31, 2020, Fitton suggested that Trump say, “The ballots counted by the Election Day deadline show the American people have bestowed on me the great honor of re-election to President of the United States — the deadline by which voters in states across the country must choose a president.” He went on, “We had an election today — and I won.”
“Knowing he was leaving office, he acted immediately and signed this order on Nov. 11, which would have required the immediate withdrawal of troops from Somalia and Afghanistan, all to be completed before the Biden inauguration on Jan. 20,” said Rep. Adam Kinzinger, Republican of Illinois. Trump’s order was never executed.
There was also a stream of messages on an online forum that foreshadowed an attack on the Capitol, including that “gallows don’t require electricity” and “patriots will be there, armed to the teeth.” One user posted that, “‘Our lawmakers’ in Congress can leave one or two ways: 1. in a bodybag. 2. after rightfully certifying Trump the winner.”
