This is the first time a member of the Trump family has been asked directly to cooperate with the investigation into the events of January 6, 2021. Others close to Donald Trump, such as his former chief of staff Mark Meadows, have already been targeted by subpoenas. But faithful to the injunctions of the former president, who describes the commission as “partisan”they refused to cooperate.
In a letter addressed to the one who was a close adviser to the Republican billionaire when he was in the White House, the elected Bennie Thompson, at the head of the commission, offers him “an appointment on February 3 or 4”.
“The committee wants to discuss any conversations you may have witnessed or participated in regarding the president’s plan to obstruct or impede the counting of votes for electors.”details Bennie Thompson in the letter.
