January 6 Committee Votes 9-0 To Subpoena Trump

From the New York Times live blog:



Thompson is delivering a scorching indictment of Trump as he lays the groundwork for a subpoena. Multiple times today, committee members called Trump “the center” of the Jan. 6 events.

Cheney just motioned for a vote to subpoena Trump. “He must be accountable. He is required to answer for his actions,” Thompson said.

As members prepare for this vote, it’s a reminder of how different this committee would have been had Kevin McCarthy, the minority leader, chosen to keep all of his nominees on the committee. He withdrew his nominees after Nancy Pelosi rejected two of his choices.
