In the weeks following his reelection defeat, former President Donald Trump and his team drafted a memo to his administration calling for the termination of any staff member who didn’t believe there was massive fraud in the 2020 election, according to the latest release of transcripts from the Jan. 6 committee.
In the final report detailing its findings regarding the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, House lawmakers included a number of claims and testimony they found questionable and unreliable, according to an executive summary of the report.
A federal judge has reportedly ordered two top Trump White House lawyers to appear before a grand jury and testify as part of its criminal investigation into the former president and his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
