A federal judge said that the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol can subpoena the phone records of Kelli Ward.
A federal judge ruled Thursday that the select Congressional committee investigating the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan 6, 2021 may subpoena the phone records of the head of Arizona’s Republican Party.
Those fake electoral votes were sent to Congress for members to consider counting during its Jan. 6, 2021, session, which was interrupted for hours after the U.S. Capitol was breached by rampaging Trump supporters. The eight states that cast phony Electoral College votes on Dec. 14, 2020, sent remarkably similar paperwork to Congress and the National Archives. At least one Trump adviser, Steven Miller, knew of the plan, saying in an interview on Fox and Friends that day, that alternate slates of electors were meeting and would send their votes to Congress.
Ward also said the subpoena was overly broad and violated First Amendment rights of free association. In a August filing, her attorneys argued that forcing T-Mobile to produce the call logs could have a chilling effect on Republicans speaking with their party’s leader. Humetewa also said the argument about medical privacy doesn’t pass muster since the records sought don’t include any medical information, just records of interactions.Ward herself has been subpoenaed by both the Select Committee and the FBI.
They included Ward and her husband, Michael, as well as Rep. Jake Hoffman, former Rep. Anthony Kern and Tyler Bowyer, the chief operating officer of Turning Point Action, an advocacy organization started by conservative personality Charlie Kirk.
