House Jan. 6 Cmte Warns Mark Meadows Could Be Charged With Contempt if No-Show at Deposition
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The House select committee investigating the January 6 Capitol
insurrection said they would pursue criminal contempt charges against
Trump's former chief-of-staff Mark Meadows if he fails to show up for a
deposition today. CNN is reporting the House committee has formally
subpoenaed phone records for over 100 people, including Meadows.
Meanwhile former Trump adviser Steve Bannon's contempt of Congress trial
has been set for July 18, 2022.
