The House select committee investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol issued a new batch of subpoenas on Tuesday for 10 additional allies of former President Trump, including his former senior adviser Stephen Miller, body man Nicholas Luna and White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany.
The subpoenas show that the committee is delving deeper into the actions of Mr. Trump himself leading up to and on January 6, as it demands information from those who surrounded him. The committee also demanded information from Mr. Trump's personal assistant, two of his special assistants, his deputy chief of staff and White House personnel director on January 6.
"The select committee wants to learn every detail of what went on in the White House on January 6th and in the days beforehand," Congressman Bennie Thompson, the committee's chair, said in a statement. "We need to know precisely what role the former president and his aides played in efforts to stop the counting of the electoral votes and if they were in touch with anyone outside the White House attempting to overturn the outcome of the election."
