The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack subpoenaed Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani and Jenna Elllis, among others.
The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack targeted a range of Trump associates on Tuesday, subpoenaing former Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell, who pushed unfounded claims of widespread 2020 election fraud, while ABC News has also confirmed that the committee has acquired phone records from former President Donald Trump's son Eric and Kimberly Guilfoyle, the fiancee of Donald Trump Jr.
"The Select Committee’s investigation has revealed credible evidence that you publicly promoted claims that the 2020 election was stolen and participated in attempts to disrupt or delay the certification of the election results based on your allegations," the panel wrote in letters to Giuliani, Ellis, Powell and Trump aide and attorney Boris Epshteyn.
The committee also subpoenaed and obtained phone records belonging to Trump's youngest son, Eric, and Guilfoyle, who is engaged to Donald Trump Jr., according to sources. Guilfoyle also served as an adviser to the former president and spoke during the rally prior to the storming of the Capitol. Sources familiar with the matter told ABC News the subpoenas went to their phone providers and those records are now in the committee's possession. Both individuals were informed by their respective cellphone providers, the sources told ABC News.
