Jan. 6 committee slaps subpoena on Kimberly Guilfoyle.
Thompson told Guilfoyle in a letter accompanying the subpoena that the committee has evidence of her “involvement” in the events of Jan. 6 and knows she met with Trump that morning in the Oval Office. In text messages obtained by ProPublica, Guilfoyle, adding, “Literally one of my donors Julie at 3 million.”
Guilfoyle and the committee met privately on Feb. 25, but that conversation ended suddenly. Guilfoyle’s attorney said in a statement that the committee broke the ground rules of their agreement when members were in attendance and news of the interview leaked to the media. “Ms. Guilfoyle, under threat of subpoena, agreed to meet exclusively with counsel for the select committee in a good faith effort to provide true and relevant evidence,” her lawyer, Joseph Tacopina, said.
Guilfoyle gave the committee more than 110 pages of records, but Thompson said that was not enough. “Because Ms. Guilfoyle backed out of her original commitment to provide a voluntary interview, we are issuing today’s subpoena that will compel her to testify. We expect her to comply with the law and cooperate,” Thompson said.
