January 6 committee sends letter to GOP Rep. Scott Perry, asking to interview him
CNN
The House select committee investigating the deadly January 6 riot has asked GOP Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania to voluntarily sit down for an interview -- the first known effort by the panel to talk to a lawmaker about helping former President Donald Trump in his efforts to undermine the election.
The committee is not yet issuing a subpoena for Perry's testimony. Instead the panel is sending a letter to formally request Perry's cooperation. Perry, a member of the House Freedom Caucus, is the first lawmaker to receive such a letter from the committee.
The letter, released Monday, marks a significant step in the investigation and underscores how the panel is zeroing in on Trump's closest allies on Capitol Hill.

Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani bitterly clashed over age and experience Thursday in the final debate before New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary, as Cuomo warned that electing the progressive state assemblyman is unprepared for the job and Mamdani hammered the former governor over scandals during his time in Albany.

On Wednesday, the Department of Homeland Security posted a striking graphic on its official X account. Uncle Sam, a symbol of American patriotism, is depicted nailing a poster to a wall that reads, “Help your country… and yourself.” Written underneath the poster is the sentence, “REPORT ALL FOREIGN INVADERS,” and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement hot line.
