Jan. 6 committee subpoenas British filmmaker with inside access to Trump team: Report

The House Jan. 6 committee has subpoenaed a British documentary filmmaker who had access to President Trump’s inner circle in the weeks leading up to the 2021 attack on the Capitol.

The committee demanded in the subpoena that Alex Holder hand over raw footage he obtained “pertaining to discussions of election fraud or election integrity surrounding the November 2020 election,” interviews conducted with key members of the administration, and any footage taken on the day of the attack.

The subpoena, which the committee issued last week, was first reported by Politico on Tuesday.

Mr. Holder, who was working on a project about the Trump reelection campaign in the weeks leading up to the attack, said in a statement that he is fully cooperating with the committee and has “dutifully handed over all the materials the committee has asked for.
