In a letter sent to Trump attorney David Warrington, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), Chairman of the January 6 Committee, said that the subpoena he issued to Trump back in October would no longer be pursued.
"As you may know, the Select Committee has concluded its hearings, released its final report and will very soon reach its end. In light of the imminent end of our investigation, the Select Committee can no longer pursue the specific information covered by the subpoena.The former president responded to the news on his Truth Social account:
"Therefore, through this letter, I hereby formally withdraw the subpoena issued to former President Trump, and notify you that he is no longer obligated to comply or produce records in response to said subpoena. We appreciate your engagement with the Select Committee on this matter."
Donald J. Trump

Was just advised that the Unselect Committee of political Thugs has withdrawn the Subpoena of me concerning the January 6th Protest of the CROOKED 2020 Presidential Election. They probably did so because they knew I did nothing wrong, or they were about to lose in Court. Perhaps the FBI's involvement in RIGGING the Election played into their decision. In any event, the Subpoena is DEAD!

Why? Because I'm smart enough to know it doesn't matter which figurehead gets fake-elected, they serve the same masters.
Also why? Well because a lemur woulda made a much better pres than the sack-o-sh*t we have now, and at least I can stand to look at Trump, and he can be quite humorous in the same way an old scifi movie can. Orange man is likeable.
It's the ones that actually still think there's a difference between any of the district of criminal candidates, those are the folks I worry about.
