“We understand that the fact that a subpoena was sent to a former president is significant and historic action,” the text of a letter from committee chairman Benny Thompson and his deputy, Liz Cheney, reads.

Trump must turn over all the necessary documents by November 4, and the ex-president must give sworn testimony “beginning November 14 or around this time.”

According to the American media, the committee, in particular, demanded that Trump provide all the data on his account ktakh between November 3, 2020 and January 20, 2021.

Recall that on January 6, at a meeting of the US Congress, they were supposed to complete the official vote count procedure and declare Joe Biden the winner. Hundreds of supporters of then-incumbent President Donald Trump gathered at the Capitol to express their support and began to storm the building. Congress adjourned.

More than 550 rioters were arrested following the attack, which killed five people, including a police officer.
