Judge: Riot Panel Can Have Trump Spox’s Bank Records

Roll Call reports:

A federal judge in Washington rejected a request Thursday to stop a House committee from using bank records it obtained through a subpoena as part of the investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.

Taylor Budowich, a spokesman for former President Donald Trump, wanted the court to require the committee and its members to return or destroy some of his financial records from J.P. Morgan Chase.

Budowich’s lawyers argued the committee and bank refused to extend a production deadline and ultimately turned over records at 5 p.m. on Christmas Eve, and the federal holiday meant he was not able to challenge it in court before Congress got them.

45: What this Civil Special Grand Jury should be looking into is not my perfect phone call, but the large scale voter fraud that took place in Georgia. Then they would be doing a great job for the people. No more political witch hunts! pic.twitter.com/HE0mMwEmYv
