SHOWDOWN: Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows Sues Pelosi, January 6 Committee

 

Trump’s former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows filed a lawsuit against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the January 6 committee.

The sham January 6 committee on Wednesday prepared to proceed with criminal contempt charges against Meadows after he declined to appear for a deposition.

Mark Meadows informed the committee he would no longer appear before the sham committee for a deposition because they weren’t respecting boundaries concerning executive privilege.

Liz Cheney and Bennie Thompson responded by moving forward with contempt charges against Meadows.

According to court records, Meadows is suing Nancy Pelosi and the January 6 select committee as it prepares to take action against him.
