In reversal, former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows to cooperate with Jan. 6 select committee
The chairman of the committee said Meadows has been "engaging" with the panel........“Mr. Meadows has been engaging with the Select Committee through his attorney. He has produced records to the committee and will soon appear for an initial deposition," the committee said in a statement Tuesday. "The Select Committee expects all witnesses, including Mr. Meadows, to provide all information requested and that the Select Committee is lawfully entitled to receive. The committee will continue to assess his degree of compliance with our subpoena after the deposition.”
His lawyer initially said Meadows wouldn't cooperate with the committee because of Trump's plans to assert executive privilege, an argument dismissed by the committee, whose members will vote this week to hold former DOJ official Jeffrey Clark in contempt of Congress for ignoring the panel's subpoenas.
“As we have from the beginning, we continue to work with the Select Committee and its staff to see if we can reach an accommodation that does not require Mr. Meadows to waive Executive Privilege or to forfeit the long-standing position that senior White House aides cannot be compelled to testify before Congress," Meadows' attorney George Terwilliger said in a statement Tuesday. "We appreciate the Select Committee’s openness to receiving voluntary responses on non-privileged topics.”.......
