Trump posts 14-page response to Jan 6 committee, its subpoena for him to testify
Trump posted the letter on Truth Social to committee Chairman Democrat Rep. Bennie Thompson.
Former President Trump on Friday posted on social media a 14-page response to the Democrat-led House Jan. 6 committee unanimously voting to subpoena him to testify, but he did not directly respond to the demand.
Trump posted the letter on Truth Social to committee Chairman Democrat Rep. Bennie Thompson one day after the committee voted on the subpoena, at the conclusion of its final public hearing.
"This memo is being written to express our anger, disappointment, and complaint that with all of the hundreds of millions of dollars spent on what many consider to be a Charade and Witch Hunt, and despite strong and powerful requests, you have not spent even a short moment on examining the massive Election Fraud that took place during the 2020 Presidential Election, and have targeted only those who were, as concerned American Citizens, protesting the Fraud itself,” Trump wrote in the letter, reviewed by The Hill newspaper and dated Thursday, Oct. 13.
The former president's letter is not a formal response to the subpoena, which has yet to be sent. And such documents have to be served, also according to The Hill.
