Hi there,

If you think Democracy Now!’s reporting is a critical line of defense against war, climate catastrophe and fascism, please make your donation of $10 or more right now. Today a generous donor will DOUBLE your donation, which means it’ll go twice as far to support our independent journalism. When Democracy Now! covers war or gun violence, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers. When we cover the climate emergency, our reporting isn’t sponsored by the oil, gas, coal or nuclear companies. Democracy Now! is funded by you, and that’s why we’re counting on your donation to keep us going. Please give today. Every dollar makes a difference—in fact, gets doubled! Thank you so much.

Jan. 6 Committee Subpoenas Five Republican Lawmakers Including Kevin McCarthy

HeadlineMay 13, 2022

The House committee probing the January 6 Capitol riot has subpoenaed five Republican congressmembers — including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy — after they refused to voluntarily cooperate with the investigation. Also subpoenaed are Congressmembers Andy Biggs of Arizona, Mo Brooks of Alabama, Jim Jordan of Ohio and Scott Perry of Pennsylvania. January 6 committee member Adam Schiff spoke to reporters on Capitol Hill Thursday.

Rep. Adam Schiff: “Some were involved in the effort to overturn the election. Some spoke at the rally before the attack. One has said publicly that the president called him to rescind the election. They clearly have relevant testimony.”
