WASHINGTON — A One America News Network host and a conservative lawyer who participated in a call where former President Donald Trump pressured the Georgia secretary of state to “find” votes are among six people who were subpoenaed Tuesday by the House committee examining the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol.
The latest batch of subpoenas asks for documents and testimony from witnesses who promoted unsupported claims of election fraud in the 2020 presidential election and encouraged actions to overturn the election results in favor of Trump.
Cleta Mitchell, a conservative lawyer and former Oklahoma state representative, participated in a call wherein Trump pressured Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” enough votes to reverse his defeat in the state. Mitchell, the committee says, was in contact with Trump on Jan. 6 and in the days before.
