A committee investigating the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol insurrection has issued subpoenas to five more individuals, including former President Donald Trump’s ally Roger Stone and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.
Jacob Chansley, the self-described"QAnon Shaman," was sentenced to 41 months in prison for his role in the Jan. 6 riot.WASHINGTON -- A committee investigating the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol insurrection has issued subpoenas to five more individuals, including former President’s ally Roger Stone and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, as lawmakers deepened their probe of the rallies that preceded the deadly attack.
The subpoenas are the latest in a wide net the House panel has cast in an effort to investigate the deadly day when a group of Trump’s supporters, fueled by his false claims of a stolen, brutally assaulted police and smashed their way into the Capitol to interrupt the certification of Democrat Joe Biden’s victory.
In a statement, Stone said he has yet to see the details of the subpoena but called any allegation of his involvement on that day as “categorically false.” Stockton and Lawrence were key leaders of the “Stop the Steal” movement after the election and helped to organize the rally on Jan. 6 that preceded the attack on the Capitol. The couple said they planned to testify and would turn over documents requested by the committee.
Budowich, who now serves as Trump’s chief spokesperson, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
