TIMES


Donald Trump is fighting back against the partisan January 6 commission formed by Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The panel is entirely composed of radical Democrats and anti-Trump Republicans and seeks to infringe on his executive privilege and his personal communications to support the bogus political narrative that January 6 was an "insurrection" and a "coup attempt" that was encouraged by Donald Trump himself. The Hill reported:"Former President Trump on Monday filed a federal lawsuit against the Jan. 6 select committee seeking to block the panel from obtaining his administration's records from the National Archives."The lawsuit reads:"The Committee's request amounts to nothing less than a vexatious, illegal fishing expedition openly endorsed by Biden and designed to unconstitutionally investigate President Trump and his administration. Our laws do not permit such an impulsive, egregious action against a former President and his close advisors."The lawsuit follows upon attempts to force the Trump administration to comply with unlawful subpoenas. Trump earlier instructed four top aides to defy sweeping subpoenas issued by the partisan January 6 commission. The report added:"The committee has subpoenaed documents and testimony from four Trump administration alumni: former social media czar Dan Scavino, former Defense Department official Kash Patel, former chief of staff Mark Meadows, and former White House adviser Steve Bannon. The four men were ordered to turn over documents related to Jan. 6 by Thursday and to sit for interviews with investigators next week."Steve Bannon has said outright that he will not comply with the January 6 committee's subpoena.
Meanwhile, President Joe Biden has waived executive privilege on an initial batch of Trump White House documents requested by the National Archives.
Trump now has 30 days to challenge the decision prior to the National Archives releasing them to the Jan. 6 panel, Politico reported. Donald Trump earlier issued a letter that stated the January 6 committee is seeking materials that are covered by executive and other privileges.
