Anderson Cooper 360º: January 6 Committee subpoenas former President Trump

October 22, 2022

The House Select Committee investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol has sent a subpoena to former President Trump saying he “personally orchestrated and oversaw a multi-part effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election and to obstruct the peaceful transition of power.” Trump’s lawyers said they will review the subpoena and “respond as appropriate to this unprecedented action.” Former federal prosecutor Jennifer Rodgers tells Anderson Cooper what she thinks the committee’s end game is and if she thinks they’ll get any information from the former President. Plus, the Washington Post is reporting that the documents the FBI seized at Mar-a-Lago back in August contained U.S. secrets about Iran and China. Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe joins AC360 to discuss the level of sensitivity of these documents and says this material is “handled with such care and there’s a reason for that.”
