Jan. 6 committee issues 10 more subpoenas targeting Trump administration officials
The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot issued 10 subpoenas on Tuesday to former members of the Trump administration -- including West Wing aides and senior officials who were in or around the Oval Office and former President Donald Trump when the riot unfolded on Capitol Hill.
They include senior adviser Stephen Miller, press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, personnel director John McEntee, deputy chief of staff Chris Liddell, and Keith Kellogg, who served as former Vice President Mike Pence's national security adviser and was with Trump watching coverage of the riot on television, according to Bob Woodward and Robert Costa's book "Peril."
With this latest tranche, the committee has now issued at least 35 subpoenas as part of its investigation.
The panel has asked for documents to be produced by Nov. 23, and for the recipients to appear for closed-door depositions in late November to mid-December.
On Monday, the committee issued six subpoenas to senior Trump campaign officials and advisers, including campaign manager Bill Stepien and spokesman Jason Miller.
Separately, a federal judge on Tuesday evening rejected Trump's efforts to block the Jan. 6 select committee from obtaining records out of the National Archives that the panel has sought in its investigation of Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
D.C. district judge Tanya Chutkan made it clear in her opinion that President Joe Biden's decision to not assert executive privilege over the documents outweighs Trump's own assertions.
"At bottom, this is a dispute between a former and incumbent President," Chutkan writes. "And the Supreme Court has already made clear that in such circumstances, the incumbent’s view is accorded greater weight."
The Trump team immediately filed an appeal of the decision to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals.
