House Panel Seeks Contempt Charges for Two Former Trump Officials

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol will seek contempt charges against two former Trump officials that have failed to comply with subpoenas from the panel.

Dan ScavinoPresident Trump’s deputy chief of staff for communications, was among the first four people to be subpoenaed by the committee last year, though they faced delays in officially serving him.
